Influence of Molecular Genetic Classes on Behavior in Prader‐Willi Syndrome
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A wide range of behavioral phenotypes has been described in PWS patients including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The prevalence of behavioral disorders was studied in 292 participants over 3 years with genetically confirmed PWS (N = 164 females and N = 128 males) with deletion (N = 182) and mUPD (maternal uniparental disomy) (N = 99).

Maternal Factors Modifying the Link Between Genetic Risk for Autism and Developmental Milestones
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although common genetic liability—quantified through polygenic risk scores (PRS)—accounts for substantial variance in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) liability, how prenatal environmental exposures interact with genetic predisposition to shape developmental outcomes remains poorly understood. Using the data from Autism Genetic Resource Exchange

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Prenatal Detection of Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita, Present State and Future Perspectives
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by congenital contractures in at least two different body regions. Despite increasingly widespread prenatal ultrasound screening, prenatal detection rates for AMC remain disappointingly low, with fewer than half of affected fetuses diagnosed before ...

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...
