Article Abstract
Motivation: Pathogenic copy-number variants (CNVs) can cause a heterogeneous spectrum of rare and severe disorders. However, most CNVs are benign and are part of natural variation in human genomes. CNV pathogenicity classification, genotype-phenotype analyses, and therapeutic target identification are challenging and time-consuming tasks that require the integration and analysis of information from multiple scattered sources by experts.
Results: Here, we introduce the CNV-ClinViewer, an open-source web application for clinical evaluation and visual exploration of CNVs. The application enables real-time interactive exploration of large CNV datasets in a user-friendly designed interface and facilitates semi-automated clinical CNV interpretation following the ACMG guidelines by integrating the ClassifCNV tool. In combination with clinical judgment, the application enables clinicians and researchers to formulate novel hypotheses and guide their decision-making process. Subsequently, the CNV-ClinViewer enhances for clinical investigators' patient care and for basic scientists' translational genomic research.
Availability And Implementation: The web application is freely available at https://cnv-ClinViewer.broadinstitute.org and the open-source code can be found at https://github.com/LalResearchGroup/CNV-clinviewer.

Antenatal Ultrasound Findings in Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 0.

Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Augusta University, Augusta, Georgia, USA.
Introduction: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), caused by pathogenic variants in the survival motor neuron (SMN) gene, is the most common genetic cause of mortality in children under the age of two. Prior reports of obstetric sonograms performed in pregnancies with severe forms of fetal SMA have discrepant findings that may stem from a failure to account for the SMN2 copy number.
Methods: We present a neonate diagnosed with SMA type 0 postnatally (0SMN1/1SMN2 genotype).

In light of the challenges posed by global climate change, the environmental adaptability of organisms is becoming increasingly important. The Wuzhishan (WZS) pig, tolerant to high heat and humidity, is an ideal model for genomic study. By characterizing its genome and assessing its genetic diversity and runs of homozygosity (ROH), we can gain insights into its current conservation status and genomic architecture.

The necessity of this unique mechanism remains unsubstantiated, as does the role of recursive splicing (RS) in human disease. From analyses of rare copy number variants (CNVs) from almost one million individuals, we previously identified large, heterozygous deletions eliminating an RS site (RS1) in the first intron of that conferred substantial risk for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and other neurobehavioral traits.

Purpose: Multiple primary tumors arising in the same individual pose challenges for precision oncology, particularly in the context of hereditary cancer syndromes such as Lynch syndrome. While these tumors may originate from a shared germline predisposition, it remains unclear whether they also share somatic alterations that could be therapeutically exploited. This study aimed to characterize the extent of somatic genomic overlap between synchronous or metachronous gastric and colorectal cancers within young Korean patients.

Objective: This study investigates the association between alobar holoprosencephaly (HPE) and de novo germline microdeletions in the Xq25 region. To develop a Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders (PGT-M) based workflow enabling high-resolution preimplantation detection of sub-Mb microdeletions, overcoming the >1 Mb resolution limit of conventional whole genome amplification(WGA) copy number variation(CNV) sequencing to identify causative Xq25 variants and prevent pathogenic microdeletion transmission.
Methods: This study presents a clinical case involving a couple with an adverse obstetric history accompanied by two occurrences of HPE.
