Skipping of Exon 20 in EP300: A Novel Variant Linked to Rubinstein–Taybi Syndrome With Atypical and Severe Clinical Manifestations

Clinical Genetics, Volume 107, Issue 3, Page 354-358, March 2025.
We propose that variants leading to the skipping of exon 20 in the EP300 gene result in a severe form of Rubinstein–Taybi syndrome (RSTS). In our study, we identified two patients with de novo variants, and in one case, we confirmed exon 20 skipping. DNA methylation analysis supported the RSTS diagnosis; however, the episignature did not align with the

Impact of oncologic diseases on outcome in patients with severe isolated tricuspid regurgitation

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 55, Issue 3, March 2025.
A total of 973 patients with isolated tricuspid regurgitation. Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is linked to high morbidity and mortality. Isolated TR offers limited treatment options beyond interventional repair or replacement. Cancer history or treatment may delay TR care. This study included 973 patients with severe TR and normal left ventricular

Current status of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy in grade 1 and 2 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 37, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) using [177Lu‐DOTA0,Tyr3]octreotate (177Lu‐DOTATATE) represents an established treatment modality for somatostatin receptor‐positive, locally advanced or metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP NET) of grade 1 or 2.
