Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.

Summary Germline gain‐of‐function variants in sterile alpha motif domain–containing 9‐like (SAMD9L), located on chromosome 7q, cause a multisystem disorder characterized by bone marrow failure, immunodeficiency and variable neurological involvement. Disease evolution is frequently shaped by somatic genetic rescue (SGR), most commonly through monosomy 7,

Abstract Background Newborn screening (NBS) quantifying T‐cell receptor excision circles with or without kappa‐deleting recombination excision circles (TREC, KREC) enables early detection of severe T‐ and/or B‐cell lymphopenia. However, both markers have limited specificity, often resulting in unnecessary referrals.
