Multi-Omics Approach Guides Relapsed Multiple Myeloma Treatment

Many patients with relapsed multiple myeloma are not often matched with correct treatment options in a timely or personalized manner, and most patients have a median survival rate of six years. With standard diagnosis and treatment, relapses are usually inevitable and fatal for most patients. More...

Whole-Genome Sequencing Diagnoses Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy

Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE) is a rare epilepsy syndrome that causes intractable seizures with multiple seizure types and presents in the first months of life. While the prevalence of EIEE is unclear, and only affects a subset of all infants with seizures, infants with EIEE have serious medical complications. More...

DNA Screening and Invasive Testing Show Similar Miscarriage Rates

Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) tests are increasingly being offered to women in the first trimester of pregnancies at a high risk of trisomy 21 to decrease the number of required invasive fetal karyotyping procedures and their associated miscarriages. More...

Genotyping Assay Integrated into Glioma Treatment

Stage II diffuse gliomas are normally challenging to identify using intraoperative histologic methods because of their location, infiltrative growth, low cellularity, and small stereotactic biopsy size. Diagnosis often requires the patient to undergo multiple neurosurgical procedures to collect tumor tissue samples. More...
