Dyneinopathy
MONDO:1040031A spectrum of diseases related to monoallelic variants in DYNC1H1 and characterized by variable neuromuscular and/or neurodevelopmental presentations. While not absolute, there appear to be genotype-phenotype correlations based on the location of the variant. Patients with variants in the stem domain of DYNC1H1 have been reported with a predominantly neuromuscular presentation, including congenital myopathy, spinal muscular atrophy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), and less frequently, intellectual disability and autism. Patients with variants in the motor domain predominantly present with neurodevelopmental presentations including intellectual disability, seizures, malformations of cortical development (abnormal brain MRI findings such as pachygyria, heterotopias, enlarged ventricles, hypoplasia of CC, brain stem, cerebellum), autism, and less frequently, neuromuscular phenotypes.

New eye scanner software could sharpen diagnosis of macular degeneration
Diagnosis TerminatedThis study tested a new software called AngioScan, used with an already-approved eye camera, to see if it can take better pictures of the back of the eye. Researchers looked at 150 patients with retinal problems like macular degeneration. The goal was to find out if the software …
