American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 1021-1035, May 2026.ABSTRACT Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a rare connective tissue disorder characterized by involvement of the cardiovascular, ocular, and musculoskeletal systems. Pathogenic variants in FBN1 cause most of the MFS cases; however, intellectual disability (ID) is rarely observed. A non‐consanguineous Pakistani family with four affected individuals was recruited.

Longitudinal 4D Flow MRI‐Derived Wall Shear Stress in Patients With an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 1380-1391, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background 4D flow MRI‐derived parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS) may improve abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression prediction. Validation of this biomarker is needed, but longitudinal data are lacking. Purpose Investigate longitudinal WSS changes and associations with AAA morphology. Study Type Prospective.
