ABSTRACT Dexmedetomidine, propofol, and sevoflurane are widely used anesthetic agents, but reports of water metabolism disturbances—particularly drug‐induced diabetes insipidus (DI)—associated with their use remain extremely rare. We report a case of a 51‐year‐old Chinese man who developed abrupt high‐volume polyuria (> 600 mL/h; 24‐h output of 8750 mL)

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn
