A Pilot Study to Evaluate Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in a Pediatric Cohort With Genodermatoses

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 197, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Our study aimed to evaluate cognitive function in individuals with genetic skin disorders involving neuroectoderm (n = 8) compared to individuals with only ectoderm or mesoderm (n = 16) involvement. We hypothesized that neuroectodermal involvement would result in poorer neurocognitive performance.
