Functional Characterization of a Novel Intronic Variant in PIEZO2 in a Recessive Form of Distal Arthrogryposis With Impaired Proprioception and Touch (DAIPT)

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
DAIPT is a rare genetic disease caused by PIEZO2 gene mutations. We identified two novel variants of the gene, a nonsense and an intronic substitution, in a child with suspected DAIPT. Functional studies confirmed the effect of the nonsense variant and demonstrated the pathogenicity of the intronic one by providing a conclusive diagnosis of DAIPT. This

Genotype–Phenotype Correlations, Treatment, and Prognosis of Children With Early‐Onset (Neonatal) Marfan Syndrome

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 134-145, August 2025.
Early‐onset Marfan syndrome (eoMFS) is a rare disorder with atrioventricular valve insufficiency being the most severe symptom. We propose to regard eoMFS as a spectrum, ranging from a severe disorder life‐threatening already before or immediately after birth, to a disorder with a better survival rate, creating a window for atrioventricular valve ...

CDK13‐Related Disorder: Novel Insights From A Series of 27 Cases and Recommendations for Clinical Management

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 146-155, August 2025.
This report described 27 novel subject with CDK13‐related disorders. Collecting the clinical and radiological data, we better define the phenotypic spectrum of this condition and we suggest a comprehensive clinical management. ABSTRACT In 2016, Sifrim and colleagues described the first group of patients carrying heterozygous pathogenic variants in ...

PIK3R1 mutations in individuals with insulin resistance or growth retardation: Case series and in silico functional analysis

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, Volume 16, Issue 8, Page 1526-1534, August 2025.
We present a report on SHORT syndrome caused by PIK3R1 mutations, including findings from in silico analysis. Our results demonstrate that these mutations impair the ability of p85α to interact with phosphopeptides. ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction Phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase (PI3K) plays a key role in insulin signaling, and mutations in PIK3R1, which ...

A case of SHORT syndrome with a novel genetic mutation diagnosed 19 years after the onset of diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, Volume 16, Issue 8, Page 1561-1565, August 2025.
We report a case of SHORT syndrome caused by a novel PIK3R1 mutation. The diagnosis of SHORT syndrome was made based on typical clinical features suggestive of the syndrome. ABSTRACT A 33‐year‐old man presented with short stature, thin build, hearing impairment, Rieger anomaly, and a history of inguinal hernia.

A tailored approach for the treatment of indirect inguinal hernia in adults—an old problem revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: A patent processus vaginalis peritonei (PPV) presents typically as an indirect hernia with an intact inguinal canal floor during childhood. Little is known however about PPV in adults and its best treatment.
