Biallelic PAX6 Variants in an Adult With Severe Microphthalmia and Preserved Intellectual Function

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PAX6 encodes a dosage‐sensitive transcription factor that is essential for eye development. Heterozygous PAX6 disease is well characterized, but biallelic disease is extremely rare and has been associated with anophthalmia, severe brain malformations, and perinatal lethality.

Influence of Molecular Genetic Classes on Behavior in Prader‐Willi Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican 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

open access: yesAmerican 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

A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

open access: yesAmerican 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 ...

The EXPLAIN Study: Exploring Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita in Adults in Norway — A Description of Demographic, Medical, and Neurological Findings

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) encompasses several hundred conditions with diverse genetic, pathophysiological, and clinical origins. The overarching EXPLAIN study explores underlying causes and implications of AMC and represents the largest clinical cohort of adults with AMC reported to date.

Prenatal Presentation of RMRP‐Related Skeletal Dysplasia: Clinical and Genomic Expansion

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The RNA subunit of the mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease complex is encoded by RMRP. Biallelic variants in RMRP are known for anauxetic dysplasia 1 (AD), cartilage‐hair hypoplasia (CHH), and metaphyseal dysplasia without hypotrichosis.

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies

open access: yesAmerican 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 ...

‘The Other Parent’: A Critical Policy Analysis of Fatherhood Discourses in the Australian Government's Paid Parental Leave Scheme

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Australian paid parental leave (PPL) government scheme aims to support working parents through financial assistance and the promotion of gender equality in caregiving responsibilities. However, the scheme's implementation has been critiqued for its gendered design, which marginalises fathers and reinforces traditional gender roles.
