Exploring Oral Health Related Quality of Life in Rett Syndrome Using Directed Content Analysis

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT No validated oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQOL) instrument currently exists for those with severe intellectual and developmental disabilities and who communicate non‐verbally. This qualitative study aimed to explore the domains that were important to the oral health‐related quality of life in individuals with Rett syndrome (RTT).

Truncating Variants in RREB1 Cause a Novel RASopathy Syndrome of Congenital Heart Disease, Genitourinary Malformations, and Developmental Delay

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interstitial 6p microdeletion syndrome is characterized by dysmorphic facies and structural heart, kidney, brain, and musculoskeletal differences. RREB1 haploinsufficiency and consequent abnormal RAS‐MAPK pathway signaling have been proposed as a driver of the disease phenotype; however, apart from a single case report, the phenotype of ...

The Latent Structure of Autistic Traits: A Taxometric, Latent Class and Latent Profile Analysis of the Adult Autism Spectrum Quotient

Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2016
Autistic traits are widely thought to operate along a continuum. A taxometric analysis of Adult Autism Spectrum Quotient data was conducted to test this assumption, finding little support but identifying a high severity taxon. To understand this further,
