ABSTRACT Short rib‐polydactyly syndrome (SRPS), with or without polydactyly, encompasses a range of autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasias characterized by shortened limbs, narrow thorax, and visceral abnormalities. Accurate genetic testing is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of different clinical subtypes. This study investigates gene variants

Structural and Functional Imaging of Motor Outcomes in Twins With Perinatal Stroke: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Background Perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) affects 1 in 4000 live births. Dystonia, affecting ~20% of children following AIS, is characterized by involuntary muscle contractions and abnormal movements. Why some develop dystonia post AIS, while others do not, remains unclear.

Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Testing the Energetics of Gestation and Growth Hypothesis for Human Secondary Altriciality
ABSTRACT The pronounced neurological immaturity, yet increased birthweight of human neonates relative to other primates, known as secondary altriciality, is traditionally attributed to obstetric constraints arising from pelvic adaptations for bipedal locomotion and childbirth—the so‐called obstetrical dilemma.

Abstract Thalassemia and sickle cell disease (SCD) are among the most common monogenic disorders worldwide. They cause chronic hemolytic anemia, the consequences and prognosis of which vary considerably depending on the genetic characteristics of patients and the healthcare system in their country of residence.
