#Newborn #screening in the U.S. has been a successful #publichealth program, detecting thousands of #infants who need early #treatment. With advances in #geneticsequencing and #gene‑based therapies, the number of #conditions that could qualify for #screening can increase. Read Here: buff.ly/1O45MUj

#Metachromatic #leukodystrophy (#MLD) is rare—1 in 100,000 births—but devastating if missed. A new two-tier #newbornscreen can catch it early, enabling #genetherapy that improves #survival & motor #outcomes. #pediatric #genomics #rarediseases

#Duchennemusculardystrophy affects ~2 in 10,000 boys, yet #diagnosis in the U.S. still comes later, around age 5. #Newbornscreening can help catch #DMD earlier when #care & emerging #therapies can make the biggest difference.
