High‐Resolution Genomic Characterization of WAGR Spectrum Disorder: Insights From a Novel Cohort and Literature Synthesis, and Validation of Patient‐Reported Data

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT WAGR spectrum disorder (WAGRSD) is an ultra‐rare congenital disorder caused by heterozygous deletion of chromosome 11p13. While classically associated with Wilms tumor, Aniridia, Genitourinary anomalies, and a Range of developmental delays, accurate delineation of the deletion is critical for prognosis because the phenotypic spectrum extends ...

Perspective: A Neuro-Hormonal Systems Approach to Understanding the Complexity of Cryptorchidism Susceptibility

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Nonsyndromic cryptorchidism is a common multifactorial, condition with long-term risks of subfertility and testicular cancer. Revealing the causes of cryptorchidism will likely improve prediction and prevention of adverse outcomes.

RNA sequencing profiles reveals progressively reduced spermatogenesis with progression in adult cryptorchidism

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionThe fertility of cryptorchidism patients who didn’t perform corrective surgery will decrease with age. Herein, we elucidate the histological alterations and underlying molecular mechanism in patients with an increase in the disease duration ...

Defining Features of Gabriele‐de Vries Syndrome in Adults: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gabriele‐de Vries syndrome (GADEVS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the YY1 gene. Like most rare genetic syndromes, the adult manifestations of GADEVS remain poorly defined. Here, we describe the oldest patient reported to date with GADEVS—a 63‐year‐old woman with a c.1177_1179del YY1 variant ...

Decoding the pathogenesis of spermatogenic failure in cryptorchidism through single-cell transcriptomic profiling

open access: yesCell Reports Medicine
Summary: Cryptorchidism, commonly known as undescended testis, affects 1%–9% of male newborns, posing infertility and testis tumor risks. Despite its prevalence, the detailed pathophysiology underlying male infertility within cryptorchidism remains ...

Weak association of anti-sperm antibodies and strong association of familial cryptorchidism/infertility with HLA-DRB1polymorphisms in prepubertal Ukrainian boys

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2011
Background Cryptorchidism is a frequent syndrome occurring in 1-2% of males within the first year of age. Autoimmune reactions, particularly directed to testicular elements and/or spermatozoa have been found to be often associated with cryptorchidism ...

Descriptive Epidemiology From the Myhre Syndrome Foundation Registry: The Value of Self‐Reported Data

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome is an ultrarare genetic disease characterized by short stature, distinct craniofacial features, cardiovascular and respiratory fibrosis and stenosis, neurodevelopmental delays, autism, intellectual disability, and hearing loss. The natural history of Myhre syndrome is still not fully understood due to a small patient population ...

Clinical characteristics and breed-related distribution of canine cryptorchidism: a retrospective study between 2018 and 2025

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology
Background: Cryptorchidism is the most common congenital abnormality affecting male reproductive development in dogs. Castration is generally recommended for affected individuals, and many cases are identified incidentally during elective procedures.

Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.
