The Diagnosis That Arrived Decades Late: Living Without and Then With Myhre Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome (MIM #139210) is a rare multisystem disorder first described in 1981, characterized by short stature, neurodevelopmental delay, joint contractures, and cardiopulmonary complications. Its molecular basis, recurrent pathogenic variants in SMAD4, was not discovered until 2011. This narrative is based on a review of medical records,

Digital speech hearing screening using a quick novel mobile hearing impairment assessment: an observational correlation study

open access: yesScientific Reports
By 2050, 1 in 4 people worldwide will be living with hearing impairment. We propose a digital Speech Hearing Screener (dSHS) using short nonsense word recognition to measure speech-hearing ability. The importance of hearing screening is increasing due to

Descriptive Epidemiology From the Myhre Syndrome Foundation Registry: The Value of Self‐Reported Data

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome is an ultrarare genetic disease characterized by short stature, distinct craniofacial features, cardiovascular and respiratory fibrosis and stenosis, neurodevelopmental delays, autism, intellectual disability, and hearing loss. The natural history of Myhre syndrome is still not fully understood due to a small patient population ...

Respiratory Involvement in HIST1H1E‐Related Rahman Syndrome: A Case of Severe Mixed Apnea

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rahman syndrome (HIST1H1E‐related neurodevelopmental syndrome, OMIM #617537) is a rare autosomal‐dominant condition caused by truncating variants in the C‐terminal domain of the HIST1H1E gene. It is characterized by macrocephaly, hypotonia, craniofacial anomalies, and multisystem anomalies.

Long‐Read Genome Sequencing Establishes Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in DNM1 With Distinct Functional Effects as the Cause of Early Infantile Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterozygous de novo and inherited biallelic pathogenic variants in DNM1 have been reported in association with autosomal dominant (AD) and autosomal recessive (AR) developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, respectively, due to aberrant dynamin function or expression, with each inheritance pattern associated with a different mechanism of ...
