Next-Gen Sequencing May Improve Diagnose of Rare Diseases in Newborns

A pilot study suggests that a next-generation sequencing (NGS) test panel for newborns in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) may improve the diagnosis of rare diseases, deliver results more quickly, and enable test performance in-hospital rather than outsourcing. More...

Alzheimer's Linked to Loss of Y Chromosome in Men

Men with blood cells that do not carry the Y chromosome are at greater risk of being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease (AD), and this is in addition to an increased risk of death from other causes, including many cancers. More...
