Deep Phenotyping in ReNU Syndrome Identifies a Recognizable Age‐Dependent Clinical Trajectory
Longitudinal evaluation of 11 individuals with ReNU syndrome revealed an age‐dependent multisystem trajectory. This longitudinal description may help clinicians anticipate changing needs in feeding, growth, neurological, visual, communication, behavioral, and orthopedic care. ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in the noncoding gene RNU4‐2 cause ReNU syndrome,
