Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children: Clinical recognition, genetics, and precision management

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children often arises from defects in the leptin–melanocortin pathway. Understanding these rare genetic causes not only clarifies mechanisms of appetite regulation but also enables precision therapies, offering hope beyond lifestyle interventions.

Clinical manifestations of dual‐gene variants in retinitis pigmentosa

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal disease (IRD), whereby each affected individual typically harbours pathogenic variants in a single causative gene, yet the disorder exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity, with more than 100 genes reported to underlie RP.

Generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell lines from a subject with UBAP1L-associated retinal dystrophy and CRISPR/cas9-corrected isogenic iPSC lines

Stem Cell Research
A Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line was generated from dermal fibroblasts of a patient affected with an autosomal recessive retinal dystrophy carrying the homozygous c.910-7G>A variant in UBAP1L.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Usher syndrome‐related visual impairment in Finland: A 35‐year nationwide register‐based study (1985–2019)

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate visual impairment (VI) associated with Usher syndrome (USH), a syndromic form of retinitis pigmentosa. Methods This register‐based study used data from the Register of the Finnish Federation for Visual Impairment for persons registered with USH‐related VI from 1985 to 2019.

Generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell lines from a patient with ITM2B-related retinal dystrophy and a non mutated brother

Stem Cell Research, 2019
Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines were generated from fibroblasts of a patient affected with an autosomal dominant retinal dystrophy carrying the mutation c.782A>C, p.Glu261Ala in ITM2B and from an unaffected brother.
