April 2026 in “Human Genome Variation” Long-read RNA sequencing can identify complex gene changes in IFAP syndrome.
April 2026 in “Mathematics” Platelet dose in therapies varies greatly due to factors like injected volume and concentration.
April 2026 in “Human Genome Variation” This study reports on a Pakistani family with three individuals affected by IFAP syndrome type I, linked to the recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant c.970+5G>A. This variant has also been identified in Chinese and Argentinian families. Haplotype analyses indicate that this is a recurrent mutational hotspot rather than a result of a founder effect. The study also notes variability in phenotypic severity among the families, suggesting the presence of additional modifying factors.
