Integrating Chain‐of‐Thought and Retrieval Augmented Generation Enhances Rare Disease Diagnosis From Clinical Notes

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Several studies show that large language models (LLMs) struggle with phenotype‐driven gene prioritization for rare diseases. These studies typically use Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms to prompt foundation models such as GPT and LLaMA to predict candidate genes.

Yield of Whole Genome Sequencing for Pathogenic Single Nucleotide Variants in Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

Diagnostic Yield of Post‐Mortem Fetal Micro‐CT for Abdominal and Pelvic Anomalies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective(s) This study aims to document the abdominal and pelvic anomalies that can be demonstrated using post mortem Micro‐CT, independent of whether the anomaly contributed to the main diagnosis or cause of death. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 1200 whole body post‐mortem fetal Micro‐CT scans in an unselected, consecutive cohort ...

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy as a Key Feature of MRAS‐Related Noonan Syndrome: New Case and Comprehensive Literature Review

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Noonan syndrome (NS) is a rare multisystemic condition among the RASopathy group, characterized by a broad phenotypic spectrum and genetic variability. It results from pathogenic variants in genes regulating the RAS/MAPK pathway, affecting cell proliferation and differentiation.
