Infantile Eyelid Retraction in Dizygotic Twins
, 2022 Eyelid retraction in infants is typically due to either obstructive hydrocephalus or thyroid eye disease although there are many rarer causes reported. Primary congenital bilateral eyelid retraction in monozygotic twins has been reported.

Genetics of Dizygotic Twinning: A Feasibility Study for a Biobank [PDF]
Twin Research, 2004 To locate the genes that make a substantial contribution to variation in natural dizygotic twinning in humans, large-scale studies are needed. New studies should not stop at DNA genotyping, but collect material that allow gene-expression analysis, transcriptomics, proteomics and endocrinology.

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy
Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.This study found that the metabolomic signature of umbilical venous cord blood in congenital heart disease (CHD) differs from that of healthy monozygotic (MZ) co‐twins. Dysregulation of metabolic pathways like glucose, lipid, and amino acid metabolism, along with altered metabolites, helps understand CHD predisposition.

On The Influence of Genetic Factors on the Formation of Homosexuality by Data of Twin Studies
Психологічне консультування i психотерапія, 2019 Results of twin studies are presented; these demonstrate that in a number of cases genetic effects can play a role of mild predisposing factors for the development of homosexuality, but the main part in its formation is accounted for by psychological and

Addiction, EarlyView.Abstract Background and aims Addiction‐related behaviors, such as loss of control eating (LOC), cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption, have been associated with high body mass index (BMI). This study aimed to assess genetic and environmental contributions to these associations over time.

Application of intraoral scanner to identify monozygotic twins
BMC Oral Health, 2020 Background DNA base identification is a proper and high specificity method. However, identification could be challenged in a situation where there is no database or the DNA sequence is almost identical, as in the case of monozygotic (MZ) twins.

Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Familial clustering of testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is well‐established, whereas the risk of non‐testicular cancer among relatives remains inconsistent across studies. Objective To evaluate the overall and site‐specific cancer risk among first‐degree relatives and grandparents of TGCT patients compared to cancer‐free controls.
