ABSTRACT Hemophilic arthropathy (HA), a major complication of hemophilia, is a chronic osteoarthropathy driven by repeated joint bleeding. Although traditional therapies such as coagulation factor replacement, physical rehabilitation, and surgery can manage symptoms, they cannot fundamentally repair established joint damage or break the pathological ...

Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is effective for Parkinson's disease (PD); however, its efficacy varies with genetic background, such as the GBA1 variant—the causative gene of Gaucher disease—associated with increased PD risk and cognitive decline after subthalamic nucleus (STN)‐DBS.

Integrating Long‐Read Nanopore Sequencing for Precision Resolution of Genomic Variants in Dystonia
Abstract Background Although many individuals with dystonia present with features indicative of single‐gene etiologies, obtaining definitive genetic diagnoses can be challenging. Objective We assessed the value of nanopore‐based long‐read sequencing (LRS) in achieving molecular clarification of dystonic syndromes.

Expanding the Genetic and Phenotypic Spectrum of DYT‐VPS16: The Importance of Splice‐Site Variants
Abstract Background DYT‐VPS16, an early‐onset isolated dystonia caused by variants in the VPS16 gene, has been reported in fewer than 70 patients. Methods We explored the clinical and genotypic spectrum of DYT‐VPS16 by investigating early‐onset dystonia patients with VPS16 variants discovered in our large Biodatabank and through gene‐matching ...

Loss‐of‐Function Variants in CPT1C: No Support for a Causal Role in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Abstract Background Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by lower‐limb spasticity. Pathogenic variants in CPT1C have been implicated in HSP. Objective The objective of this study was to assess whether CPT1C loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants are causally associated with HSP.
