Analysis of Genetic Factors in a Family With Short Stature. [PDF]
We identified pathogenic variants of two different genes, COL1A2 and GH1, in a family with short stature through trio‐WES, thereby providing a clear genetic diagnosis for this family. ABSTRACT Background To elucidate the genetic underpinnings of short stature in a familial cohort of five individuals.

Three years of ocular proton therapy in the Netherlands, clinical results
Abstract Purpose Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare cancer with rising number of diagnosis (143 diagnoses in 1990 to 226 in 2023) in the Netherlands. Most patients are treated locally with Ruthenium‐106 brachytherapy (±102/year). Patients were referred for proton therapy (PT) to Switzerland in the past, but PT is available in the Netherlands from January ...

ABSTRACT Several benign, inflammatory and malignant lesions can present as iris or anterior chamber masses, including iris naevi, cysts, adenomas, leiomyomas, nodules, vascular tumours, melanomas, metastases, as well as iris and pigment epithelium adenocarcinomas. Fortunately, benign iris lesions are much more common than malignant tumours and many can
