Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG): Quo vadis?
The survey summarizes in its first part the current status of knowledge on the Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) with regard to their phenotypic spectrum, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, and pathophysiology. It documents the clinical and basic research activities, and efforts to involve patients and their families.

Glycosphingolipids in congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG)
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a large family of rare disorders affecting the different glycosylation pathways. Defective glycosylation can affect any organ, with varying symptoms among the different CDG. Even between individuals with the same CDG there is quite variable severity.

Are viral vector-mediated therapies compatible with aberrant glycosylation? [PDF]
The ability of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) to transduce host cells relies on interactions with glycan moieties on the cellular surface.

Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation from a Neurological Perspective
Most plasma proteins, cell membrane proteins and other proteins are glycoproteins with sugar chains attached to the polypeptide-glycans. Glycosylation is the main element of the post-translational transformation of most human proteins.

Novel Compound Heterozygous Variants in the COG5 Gene Causing Fetal Hydrops and Skeletal Dysplasia. [PDF]
Two affected fetuses in a COG5‐CDG family exhibited fetal hydrops and skeletal malformations, which were found to segregate with the paternal frameshift variant c.1972del and the maternal splice‐site variant c.2168_2168+4delinsCATAAAA in the COG5 gene.

Lipo-Glc-1,6-P<sub>2</sub>: A Bioprecursor Prodrug for Phosphomannomutase-2 Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Phosphomannomutase‐2 (PMM2) deficiency leads to the prominent Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (CDG), a rare disease currently lacking effective treatment options. The complete absence of PMM2 activity is incompatible with life, and all patients carry at least one missense destabilising variant that allows residual enzymatic function. This

Bleeding Disorders in Children With Genetic Diseases: A Narrative Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim The lack of data on bleeding risk assessment in children with genetic diseases is concerning given their increased care needs and risk of haemorrhagic complications compared to the general population. Identification of haemostatic disorders is crucial for implementing preventive measures and mitigating bleeding risk.
