Genetic sequencing of children with malrotation and midgut volvulus: A cross‐sectional study
Abstract Objectives Intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus can cause a particularly severe form of pediatric intestinal failure and is often a cause of ultra‐short bowel syndrome (SBS), with longer dependence on parenteral nutrition. While malrotation can be found in several genetic syndromes, most occurrences of this condition are not associated ...

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.

Dark Choroid in Cone-Rod Dystrophy
An unusual pattern of dark choroid in an eight-year-old girl is described. The ophthalmoscopic, fluorescein angiographic and functional changes were indicative of progressive cone-rod dystrophy.

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

The molecular genetics of cone-rod retinal dystrophy [PDF]
Genetic eye disease is an important and common cause of blindness in the developed World. The choroidoretinal dystrophies make up a significant proportion of this group of conditions.

Abstract Purpose To investigate visual impairment (VI) associated with Usher syndrome (USH), a syndromic form of retinitis pigmentosa. Methods This register‐based study used data from the Register of the Finnish Federation for Visual Impairment for persons registered with USH‐related VI from 1985 to 2019.

ABSTRACT Background The lack of validated and sensitive clinical endpoints remains a major challenge in the design of gene therapy trials for inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs). This prospective longitudinal cohort study describes the natural disease progression of IRDs caused by pathogenic mutations in the Crumbs homologue 1 (CRB1) gene, and ...
