The Diverse Genetic Landscape of Hearing Impairment in South African Families
South African Families with Nonsyndromic (N = 24) and Syndromic Hearing Impairment (N = 21) with ≥ 2 affected members were analyzed. The underlying etiology was uncovered using exome and Sanger sequencing for 31 of these families. ABSTRACT To elucidate the genetic etiology of hearing impairment (HI) in South Africa, 45 nonsyndromic HI (NSHI) and ...

Efficacy in noise of the Starkey Surflink Mobile 2 technology in directional versus omnidirectional microphone mode with experienced adult hearing aid users [PDF]
The Starkey SurfLink Mobile 2 is a remote microphone accessory. Starkey claims that by placing the SurfLink’s internal microphone in the directional microphone setting, the participant will hear better in noise over the omnidirectional setting.

We report a 2‐year‐old male with clinical features of Takenouchi‐Kosaki syndrome, bilateral colobomas, and a de novo, likely pathogenic missense variant in CDC42. Supportive evidence includes a Cdc42 conditional knock‐out mouse model with colobomas.

We report an individual with mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB and chronic pancytopenia. Hematological studies in a mouse model revealed microcytic anemia and decreased monocyte count. Hence, pancytopenia is thought to be secondary to mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB, and we suggest that a complete blood count should be included in the clinical ...

Our mouse model with a c.259G>A transition in PRPS1 showed a significant decrease in the number of hair cells and SGN counts at 48 weeks of age and a reduction in Prps1 enzymatic activity in the KI mouse. This model will serve as a valuable tool for developing therapeutic strategies.

Trio exome sequencing allowed the identification of two novel compound heterozygous variants in PIK3C2A, defining the fifth family presenting a PIK3C2A‐related syndrome characterized by pulverulent cataracts and deafness. Functional testing revealed impaired PI metabolism and primary dysfunction phenotype.

Unraveling the Role of WDR91: Case Report of a Previously Unrecognized Clinical Entity
A novel case is herein described to expand the genetic and clinical spectrum of WDR91 and characterize a previously unrecognized autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder. WDR91 deficiency results in neuronal loss, cortical thinning, and impaired brain development.

The Phenotypic Spectrum of Miller Syndrome: Insight From a French Cohort
This study expands the clinical spectrum of Miller syndrome by reporting novel features including preaxial defects, facial nevus simplex, and optic atrophy. It also includes the first patients with homozygous DHODH variants, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and the variability of presentations, from severe prenatal to mild adult phenotypes.
