We conclude by offering four recommendations to promote an ethically sound development of digital technologies in genetic healthcare: (1) specify intended tasks and expected benefits of the digital technology, (2) identify potential challenges of digitalization, (3) consider the role of end-users within the genetic care process, and (4) ensure iterative stakeholder consultation and engagement.</p>","PeriodicalId":12717,"journal":{"name":"Genetics in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"101370"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143074562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conversely, two variations in LMF1 remained as VUS. Additionally, one variant in LPL and two in GPIHBP1 were likely benign (LB). Twenty FCS cases had biallelic P/LP variants and one patient, with an FCS phenotype, harboured biallelic VUS. FCS was excluded from four patients with P/LB combinations.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The analysis of the clinical and biochemical features of patients with variants in the FCS canonical genes allowed a confident variant classification that helped in the diagnosis of novel FCS cases.</p>","PeriodicalId":12717,"journal":{"name":"Genetics in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"101365"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143052332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
