What is the Prognosis for Newborns with Hereditary Diseases?
The prognosis for newborns with hereditary diseases varies depending on the specific condition and the effectiveness of the treatment. Early diagnosis and intervention can significantly improve outcomes. For some disorders, like congenital hypothyroidism, early treatment can lead to normal development. For others, like Tay-Sachs disease, the prognosis remains poor despite advances in medical care.
