Abstract Background Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder with heterogenous clinical progression, complicating prognosis and trial design. Neuroimaging offers objective biomarkers of disease progression, yet variability in progression patterns remains poorly understood.

Dominant optic atrophy: exclusion and fine genetic mapping of the candidate gene, HRY
Autosomal dominant optic atrophy (OPA1) maps to Chromosome (Chr) 3q28, and the disease interval has been refined to within 1.4 cM, flanked by the markers D3S3669 and D3S3562.

ABSTRACT Vascular dementia (VaD), accounting for up to 20% of dementia cases globally, is primarily driven by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH), which leads to progressive cognitive impairment. Despite the increasing prevalence of VaD, effective treatments remain limited.

ABSTRACT Sex chromosome aneuploidies represent a heterogeneous group of chromosomal conditions, in which phenotypic complexity generally increases with the number of supernumerary sex chromosomes. While Turner syndrome and sex chromosome trisomies are relatively well characterized, less is known about congenital malformations in sex chromosome ...

Clinical manifestations of dual‐gene variants in retinitis pigmentosa
Abstract Purpose Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal disease (IRD), whereby each affected individual typically harbours pathogenic variants in a single causative gene, yet the disorder exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity, with more than 100 genes reported to underlie RP.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Kcnv2 E151X Mouse Captures Hallmarks of KCNV2‐Associated Retinal Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Background KCNV2‐associated retinopathy is a rare inherited retinal dystrophy caused by variants in the KCNV2 gene, leading to disrupted photoreceptor behaviour and progressive deterioration of vision. Patients have characteristic electroretinography abnormalities, including reduced cone response, delayed and reduced rod response to low light ...
