Identification of Genetic Variants Causing Paediatric Cataract in Myanmar
Up to 60% of children with cataract in Myanmar have a causative variant in a known cataract gene. This is a similar rate to other populations screened to date, but highlights that there are more cataract genes left to identify. ABSTRACT Genetic testing for paediatric cataract detects a cause in 50%–70% of affected children but is as low as 20% in some ...

Trio exome sequencing allowed the identification of two novel compound heterozygous variants in PIK3C2A, defining the fifth family presenting a PIK3C2A‐related syndrome characterized by pulverulent cataracts and deafness. Functional testing revealed impaired PI metabolism and primary dysfunction phenotype.

This study reveals age‐dependent remodelling of the liver extracellular matrix (ECM), identifying Lumican as a key regulator of hepatocyte proliferation and stemness in foetal development. Dynamic ECM shifts influence liver function, offering insights into therapeutic strategies for aging‐related hepatic decline.

Status epilepticus in older adults: A critical review
Abstract Older adults (≥60 years of age) have the highest incidence of status epilepticus (SE) among adults and experience the highest morbidity and mortality. SE incidence increases with age in adulthood. A recent study from Austria estimated an incidence of 89.6/100 000 and 67.6/100 000 person‐years adjusted for age and sex in women and men aged >60 ...
