Real-world clinical utility of tumor whole-genome sequencing in solid cancers The investigated cohort comprised of 935 unique patients for whom WGS was requested between January 2021 and November 2022. The mean age at sequencing was 60.9 years, with 54% of patients being female. The most common cancer types were NSCLC (23%), CUP (16%) and soft tissue sarcoma (10%) (Supplementary Table 1a). The suitability of tissue samples for WGS was based on cryosection analysis of fresh frozen biopsies or surgical specimens. A pathologist annotated viable tumor cells for manual microdissection to enrich the tumor cell percentage of all samples. If samples were too small for automated isolation with a robot (<6 mm), in-house DNA extraction was performed to improve sequencing feasibility for smaller samples34. As 90 samples lacked any tumor cells in the cryosection, 888 suitable tissue samples could be prepared for WGS. Successful diagnostic sequencing reports were generated for 89% (793 of 888) of samples (Fig. 1). Cytology samples achieved a lower success rate (57%; 20 of 35) than surgical specimens or biopsies (91%; 773 of 853) (Supplementary Table 1b,c). WGS performed on archived samples achieved comparable success rates (90%; 135 of 150). Notably, the median turnaround time was 6 working days (average, 6.7; range, 3–22) from sample reception at...

Genomic sequencing may expand newborn screening beyond biochemical tests Routine newborn screening (NBS) has transformed early disease detection. However, traditional biochemical tests limit the range of conditions that can be identified at birth. Next-generation sequencing is being explored as a complementary screening tool. A review published in Pediatric Investigation examines how next-generation sequencing could expand NBS from single-disease assays to genome-enabled, multi-disease screening approaches. Every year, millions of newborns undergo routine screening as a preventive strategy to detect inherited disorders before symptoms emerge. Newborn screening (NBS) programs have traditionally relied on biochemical markers to identify specific groups of treatable conditions, achieving remarkable success at a population level. However, as researchers increasingly uncover genetically driven diseases that manifest early in life, questions are emerging about whether existing screening frameworks are adequate for the genomic era. To bridge this gap in early detection of genetic disease, Dr. Zhelan Huang from the Children's Hospital of Fudan University, China, and Dr. Wenhao Zhou from Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center have examined the role of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in reshaping the landscape of NBS. Their study, published in Pediatric Investigation on January 6th, 2026, examined the transition of NBS from biochemical assays for a single disease to genome-enabled, multi-disease approaches, while also delving...

Genomic sequencing of multicystic mesothelioma finds cohesin complex mutations associated with disease recurrence in patients referred for cyt Multicystic mesothelioma (MCM) is an uncommon tumour arising from mesothelial cells [1,2,3,4,5,6]. It is almost always encountered in the peritoneum, where it accounts for about 3–5% of mesothelial tumours, but rare cases arising from the pleura have been described [7]. It can occur in both sexes and at any age, although women of child-bearing age are most often affected. The commonest locations are the lower abdomen and pelvis. Although many patients are asymptomatic, patients may complain of severe episodic pain, abdominal distention, urinary disturbances or constipation. Unlike other types of mesothelial neoplasm, the link between asbestos exposure and development of MCM remains uncertain. Macroscopically, the lesions are characterised by multiple thin-walled cysts of varying size, sometimes forming confluent masses 20 cm or more in diameter. Microscopy shows the cysts to have fibrous walls lined by cells exhibiting the histological and ultrastructural features of mesothelium [1, 3, 8, 9]. Treatment can include cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in selected patients with good long-term outcomes [2, 8, 10]. The nature of multicystic mesothelioma has been controversial [6]. There is evidence that it is a true neoplasm: lesions can be progressive and recur after surgery, and in some cases the lesions are...
