Genetic testing for familial epilepsies: Diagnostic yield and genetic findings
Abstract Objective Genetic testing has become a routine part of clinical epilepsy care. Family history is an indication for genetic testing, but the diagnostic yield, predictors of a genetic diagnosis, and association with familial patterns are not well understood.

ABSTRACT Background Anemia remains highly prevalent among children aged 6–23 months in sub‐Saharan Africa. Previous estimates relied on outdated World Health Organization (WHO) hemoglobin cutoffs, which may have overestimated the burden. This study assessed anemia prevalence and associated factors using the updated 2024 WHO thresholds in nine sub ...
