Mortality Patterns and Phenotypic Clusters in Trisomy 13: A Population‐Based Study From Japan

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trisomy 13, the third most common autosomal trisomy after trisomy 21 and trisomy 18, is associated with a significantly high infant mortality rate. However, large‐scale studies examining causes of death in trisomy 13 remain scarce. Therefore, we aimed to better understand the mortality patterns.

Traumatic Asphyxia

open access: yesPediatric Emergency Care, 2014
Traumatic asphyxia is a rare condition in children that usually occurs after severe compression to the chest or abdomen.

Late Pregnancy Antiseizure Medication Exposure and Offspring Neurodevelopmental Risk: A Multi‐Child Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Antiseizure medication (ASM) use during pregnancy has increased over the past decade. However, evidence linking prenatal ASM exposure to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in offspring remains inconsistent. This study evaluated whether prenatal ASM exposure increases the risk of NDDs in children.
