American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cystic kidney diseases (CyKD) are a diverse group of disorders affecting more than 1 in 1000 individuals. Over 120 genes are implicated, primarily encoding components of the primary cilium, transcription factors, and morphogens. Prognosis varies greatly by molecular diagnosis. Causal variants are not identified in 10%–60% of individuals due to

Costello Syndrome and Ophthalmologic Issues: Unveiling the Unseen
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is an ultra‐rare condition belonging to the RASopathies, a group of disorders characterized by aberrant RAS/MAPK pathway signaling, which is involved in ocular development and in some eye pathologies. However, only a few studies assessing the ophthalmic features of individuals with CS are available.
