The Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE): Coexisting systemic disorders 2007–2023
Abstract Purpose To analyse the frequency and type of coexisting systemic disorders in children operated on for cataract in Sweden. Methods Data were retrieved from the Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE) for children operated between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2023 (n = 975), including follow‐ups at age 1, 2, 5 and 10 ...

Congenital Microcephaly in Two Infants With the Factor V Leiden Mutation
Two infants with congenital microcephaly associated with the factor V Leiden mutation are described. In both cases, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed cerebral atrophy and porencephalic cystic lesions, which were probably attributable to prenatal cerebral vascular events.

ABSTRACT Aim Doxapram is used as an additional therapy for apnea of prematurity when standard treatments such as caffeine or continuous positive airway pressure are insufficient, but its impact on long‐term neurodevelopment remains uncertain. This study evaluated the association between Doxapram exposure and neurodevelopmental outcomes in very low ...

A theoretical estimate of the risk of microcephaly during pregnancy with Zika virus infection
Objectives: There has been a growing concern over Zika virus (ZIKV) infection, particularly since a probable link between ZIKV infection during pregnancy and microcephaly in the baby was identified.

Exploring the Impact of RNU4‐2 Defects on Neurodevelopmental Disorders in a Korean Population
Among 15 450 Korean individuals, noncoding RNU4‐2 variants, primarily the recurrent de novo n.64_65insT, make up 0.72% of neurodevelopmental disorders. Modeling and RNA‐seq suggest U4/U6 disruption and abnormal 5′ splice‐site selection, supporting routine use of WGS analysis for reanalyzing unresolved cases. ABSTRACT Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs)

We set out to characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in the recently delineated KDM2B‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder. We observe a highly penetrant CxxC domain‐related phenotype with distinct facial features supported by GestaltMatcher. In contrast, our findings point to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of loss‐of‐function ...
