We developed and implemented a 500‐gene panel for phenotype‐driven genetic testing of Mendelian disorders in South Africa's public healthcare system, achieving a 46% diagnostic yield. This platform supports scalable, cost‐effective rare disease diagnosis and lays the foundation for broader genetic services in resource‐limited settings.

ABSTRACT The extracellular matrix (ECM) provides a dynamic environment in which the fine balance between biosynthesis, degradation and/or maturation of matrix components critically governs its structure and function. It is well established that the ECM plays a central role not only in the physiological functions of tissues, but also in the pathogenesis

ABSTRACT Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is increasingly used to treat malignant and non‐malignant diseases. Following allogeneic HSCT, patients are particularly vulnerable to vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPD) because conditioning depletes immune cells, including memory cells.

ABSTRACT This retrospective study evaluates the efficacy and safety of donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in children. We describe the long‐term use of preemptive, prophylactic, and therapeutic DLI with a gradual dose increase in half‐log increments.

Long-term cognitive follow-up in children treated for Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome [PDF]
Background: It remains unclear to what extent the brain is affected by Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (MPS VI), a progressive lysosomal storage disorder. While enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) elicits positive effects, the drug cannot cross the blood–brain ...
