Background: Neurogenic fecal incontinence (NFI) is a disorder of anal dysfunction caused by nerve damage. Electroacupuncture (EA), grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory, has demonstrated efficacy in treating various degenerative disorders and is extensively utilized in the clinical management of neurogenic FI. The proliferation and differentiation of muscle satellite cells (SCs) are crucial in the onset and progression of this condition.

Background: Delays in diagnosing rare genetic disorders often arise due to limited awareness and systemic challenges in primary care. This case highlights the importance of a holistic approach to patient care, encompassing timely detection and comprehensive evaluation of clinical features.
Methods: We report the case of a 21-year-old Ecuadorian male with facial and hand dysmorphias, cardiomegaly, pulmonary hypertension, and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).

Splashed white in horses is characterized by extensive white patterning on the legs, face and abdomen and may be accompanied by deafness. To date, seven variants in microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) and two variants in Paired Box 3 (PAX3) have been identified to explain this phenotype. A splashed white Thoroughbred stallion, whose sire and dam were not patterned, was hypothesized to have a de novo variant leading to his white coat pattern.
