Introduction: The integration of genetic testing in pediatrics has advanced significantly in recent years. The incorporation of technologies such as Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and array-based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) in increasingly younger patients has accelerated the transition toward precision medicine.
Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study (January 2021-June 2024) included 187 neonates (≤90 days old) from the NICUs of the Clínica Colsanitas network in Bogotá, Colombia and evaluate the diagnostic yield for genomic testing comprising 82 Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) and 125 aCGH tests, with 18 patients undergoing both.

Selenocysteine insertion sequence-binding protein 2 () is crucial for the biosynthesis of selenoproteins, including iodothyronine deiodinases, which play a vital role in thyroid hormone metabolism. Mutations in can disrupt thyroid function, leading to various clinical manifestations across multiple systems. We present the case of a 3-year-old Saudi female who was referred for genetic testing due to poor growth, developmental abnormalities, and notable facial dysmorphism.

This study aims to assess the genetic burden of fetal congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and identify prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal predictors to improve early diagnosis, monitoring, and intervention. This study included 130 CDH fetuses who underwent invasive prenatal diagnosis, with fetal prognosis evaluated using imaging parameters such as observed-to-expected lung-to-head ratio (o/e LHR), observed-to-expected total lung volume (o/e TLV), and percent predicted lung volume (PPLV). Clinical outcomes included neonatal outcomes, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) requirement, and post-neonatal prognosis.

Introduction: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) accounts for about 5% of all epithelial ovarian cancers. Currently, its treatment mainly refers to high-grade serous carci-noma (HGSC). This study aimed to explore differences in clinical characteristics between OCCC and HGSC and studied the reasons for the differences.

Background: Half of ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC) have homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). However, HRD is not well-characterized in Black individuals who experience worse survival after a diagnosis of HGSC. The objective of this study was to characterize ovarian HGSC HRD and examine its association with survival by self-reported race.
