Systemic Genetic & Rare Disease Mechanisms

This volume covers systemic-body genetic and rare diseases — one standalone page per disease — giving each a graded molecular mechanism, a reproducible burden position, and its established treatment. It is the jamming branch of the Jamming Physics programme.

This is the jamming branch of the programme → VP Theory (foundation). The brain, nervous system, heart, and affect are owned by the sibling neuro and mind whitepapers and are cross-referenced, not duplicated.

Reading order. The framework (§1) defines the classification, the deterministic burden index, and the grade legend. Each placed disease then has its own page (§2 onward), ordered by residual burden; the not-placed diseases and the mechanism-class cross-references follow, each disease still on its own page. The burden order is a provisional [H] prioritisation device, not a registry-locked ranking — treatments are accession-dated [L] (33 of 35), onset is lifted to registry [L] (Orphanet, 28 of 35) and disability to registry [L] (GBD 2013 disability weights, 13 of 35; order_locked 6 of 35); severity lifts to registry [L] where a dominant sequela carries a cited HPO Severity-modifier annotation (R8), and progression lifts to registry [L] where cited PMC open-access literature gives a disease-level magnitude with a frozen-R3-derived tier (R9), with the rest of severity/progression the remaining lift.

Sections

23 diseases are placed in the rankable order (≥ 3 of 5 burden axes scored); 12 further diseases are listed as not placed (fewer than three axes scored, rank null, open axes graded [O] not guessed), each still on its own page. 2 cross-cutting mechanism chapters (lysosomal storage; fibrillar collagenopathies) link their member disease pages without restating them. The systemic cohort has no repeat-expansion disease — those are neurological, owned by the sibling neuro volume.
