Aim To examine longitudinal changes in speech and gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy (CP) between 4 years and 14 years of age using the Viking Speech Scale (VSS) and the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS). Method In this longitudinal observational study, 44 children (26 male, 18 female) with CP were assessed at ages 4 ...

This systematic overview highlights communication impairment as a defining feature of Rett syndrome, with expressive language consistently affected more severely than receptive language and social ability. Across the literature, most studies rely on caregiver‐reported measures, with relatively few employing direct or objective measurements of speech ...

Genetic testing in paediatric neurological disorders
In this study 390 paediatric patients with neurological disorders underwent genetic testing via exome sequencing, commercial panel, in‐house epilepsy, and movement disorder gene panels. Exome sequencing provides the highest diagnostic yield, and severe developmental delay and hypotonia predicted pathogenic variants in the exome sequencing cohort ...

TOP1MT rs2293925 is an enhancer‐active regulatory SNP that shapes mitochondrial R‐loop dynamics
This study shows how a common genetic variant of mitochondrial topoisomerase 1 (TOP1MT rs2293925) can influence mitochondrial gene regulation, DNA topology, and formation of noncanonical nucleic acid structures such as R‐loops. By linking this enhancer‐active variant to mitochondrial nucleic acid stress in cellular contexts relevant to amyotrophic ...

CHARGE Syndrome: A Narrative Review and Update on Diagnosis, Assessment and Management
ABSTRACT Background CHARGE syndrome (CS) is a rare multisystemic genetic condition caused by a pathogenic variant in the DNA‐binding protein‐7 CHD7 gene. The condition affects the development of neural crest cells, which give rise to craniofacial structures, cranial nerves, ears, eyes and the heart, resulting in diverse and complex clinical features ...

From Common Pathway to Divergent Diseases: Metabolic Aspects of Inborn Errors of CoA Biosynthesis
ABSTRACT Coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis is a conserved, dynamically regulated pathway essential for mitochondrial energy production, fatty acid oxidation, lipid biosynthesis and protein acylation. Biallelic variants in PANK2, PPCS, PPCDC, and COASY cause rare inborn errors of CoA biosynthesis, associated with markedly different clinical phenotypes ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Needle electromyography (EMG) in the bulbar region aids in the diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) but remains technically challenging. The genioglossus muscle (GM) is commonly examined; however, pain and poor relaxation may limit its evaluation.
