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

Quantitative 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

Beyond the Extra X and Y Chromosome: The Contribution of Familial Risk for Psychopathology to the Neurodevelopmental Phenotype of Children With Sex Chromosome Trisomy

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 197, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Individuals with an extra X or Y chromosome (sex chromosome trisomy or SCT) have an increased risk for symptoms of psychopathology and neurocognitive dysfunction. In this study, we evaluated the contribution of family history (FH) of neuropsychiatric or neurocognitive disorders to the phenotype of SCT. One hundred and six children with SCT and

Amniocentesis and Risk of Fetal Loss in Dichorionic‐Diamniotic Twin Pregnancy: A Case‐Control Study

Prenatal Diagnosis, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 713-719, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective There is a paucity of data regarding the risk of fetal loss due to invasive prenatal diagnosis in twins. The aim of the present study is to assess the rate of amniocentesis‐related fetal loss in uncomplicated dichorionic‐diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancies. Methods Retrospective observational case‐control study.
