An effective encoding of human medical conditions in disease space provides a versatile framework for deciphering disease associations

open access: yesQuantitative Biology, Volume 13, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract It is challenging to identify comorbidity patterns and mechanistically investigate disease associations based on health‐related data that are often sparse, large‐scale, and multimodal. Adopting a systems biology approach, embedding‐based algorithms provide a new perspective to examine diseases under a unified framework by mapping diseases into

Inherited Susceptibility to Cancer: Past, Present and Future

open access: yesAnnals of Human Genetics, Volume 89, Issue 5, Page 354-365, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Germline pathogenic variants (GPVs, ‘mutations’) causing inherited susceptibility to certain cancers (cancer susceptibility genes, CSGs) broadly belong to one of two main classes—loss of function variants in tumour suppressor genes (TSGs) or gain of function variants in proto‐oncogenes (an over‐simplification).

Expanding the Tyrosine Kinase Domain of CSF1R? A Case Report From an Adult‐Onset Leukoencephalopathy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 197, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Adult‐onset leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (ALSP), also termed hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids‐1 (HDLS1), results from mutations in the CSF1R gene and leads to progressive leukoencephalopathy.

Associations Between Sum Scores or Combinations of MRI Findings in the Lumbar Spine and Low Back Pain‐Related Outcomes: A Systematic Review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 29, Issue 7, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Research on lumbar MRI findings has mainly focused on single MRI findings and their association with low back pain (LBP). Some studies suggest that summing or combining MRI findings may show stronger associations with LBP than single findings.
