Moonlighting newborn screening markers: the incidental discovery of a second-tier test for Pompe disease [PDF]
To describe a novel biochemical marker in dried blood spots suitable to improve the specificity of newborn screening for Pompe disease.The new marker is a ratio calculated between the creatine/creatinine (Cre/Crn) ratio as the numerator and the activity of acid α-glucosidase (GAA) as the denominator.

Neonatal Screening for CAH in Sweden-Results of Implementing Second-Tier Testing. [PDF]
Newborn screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is effective in identifying patients with severe forms before a potentially lethal crisis, but has a relatively high false-positive rate. The aim of this study was to improve the national neonatal screening program in Sweden and the positive predictive value by implementing LC-MS/MS second-tier

There is discussion of expanding newborn screening (NBS) through the use of genomic sequence data; yet, challenges remain in the interpretation of DNA variants. Population-level DNA variant databases are available, and it is possible to estimate the number of newborns who would be flagged as having a risk for a genetic disease (including rare variants ...

ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.
