The association of codon 392 polymorphism in ESR2 gene with breast cancer in Iran by Sakineh Abbasi, Samira Kalbasi

“…Epidemiological studies revealed that the pattern of age onset of breast cancer in the Middle East region differ from those in Caucasians. Therefore, genomic data for ESR2 (ER-?) is of the value in the clinical setting for that ethnic group and the aim of the current investigation is investigated whether polymorphisms in the ER-? …”

8q22.2q22.3 Microdeletion Syndrome Associated with Hearing Loss and Intractable Epilepsy by Alejandra Rincon, Paola Paez-Rojas, Fernando Suárez-Obando

“…A minimal/maximal deletion of 5.238 Mb and 5.374Mb, respectively, at 8q22.2q22.3 was diagnosed using a genome-wide array. The clinical phenotype is similar to the others seven patients previously reported; however, the severity of epilepsy and the concomitant hearing loss is remarkable, characteristics previously observed independently in only two patients. …”
