Research on Klinefelter syndrome is focused on understanding the disease better and finding a cure. This eMedTV article discusses research on Klinefelter syndrome in detail, including potential benefits for research participants.
Symptoms of Marfan Syndrome
Common symptoms of Marfan syndrome can include flat feet, a long face, eye problems, and heart problems. As this eMedTV article explains, symptoms can vary widely among people with the disorder. This page takes a look at the symptoms of this condition.
