Rare Diseases & Orphan Drug

The genetics community has a critical role to play in speeding up rare illness research and helping to improve diagnosis and treatment. While advances in sequencing technology and machine learning approaches have improved diagnostic success, more concerted efforts are required to progress toward effective medicines or perhaps solutions for these essential, yet often ignored, diseases. More than 300 million individuals worldwide suffer from uncommon diseases, and for more than 90% of them, there are no licenced treatments. Because genetic causes roughly 80% of uncommon disorders, new developments in genomic sequencing technologies and molecular gene therapies have improved diagnosis and increased therapy options. Unified efforts spanning multiple stakeholders throughout rare illness communities should be supported to ensure that these advances benefit as many patients as feasible in an equitable manner.

Sexually transmitted infections are disseminated largely through sexual interaction of various kinds. Use a barrier method of protection, such as a condom, throughout each form of sexual interaction, including oral sex, to lower your chance of developing a STI. Some STIs can be passed through the mouth and cause a sore throat. One of the most common STIs is gonorrhoea , popularly known as "the clap." The bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae causes gonorrhoea, which is transferred through sexual contact. The genitals, as well as the mouth and throat, can be affected by gonorrhoea. If left untreated, gonorrhoea can lead to miscarriage, infertility, septic arthritis , and blindness, among other things. Males and females experience gonorrhoea symptoms in different ways. For females, gonorrhea may cause:   Vaginal discharge Burning or pain while urinating (dysuria) Vaginal itchiness Bleeding between periods Lower abdominal pain or discomfort Painful sex For males, gonorrhea may cause: ...
