Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Development and Retrospective Application of Novel Outcome Measure: Sturge–Weber Syndrome Acute Crisis (SWAC) Index

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) symptoms frequently overlap in neurological acute crises (ACs) presenting with seizures, stroke‐like episodes (SLE), and headaches. Recent efforts to develop a prospective drug trial highlighted the need for a new outcome measure capable of quantifying these symptoms during an SWS AC.

Neonatal Seizures in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex: A Case Series

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epilepsy affects up to 90% of patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC); earlier seizure onset is associated with worse neurocognitive outcomes. The incidence of neonatal seizures in TSC is unknown, although in a recent multicenter trial 23% of infants with TSC were excluded prior to randomization because of pre‐existing ...

Developmental Milestones for Children With Down Syndrome: Revised Estimates Using Moving Average Summaries

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Children with Down syndrome follow distinct developmental trajectories that require specialized monitoring and counseling. We aimed to provide updated estimates of developmental milestone attainment using a nonparametric approach and to compare these results with previously reported generalized linear mixed‐effects model (GLMM ...

Expression of mutant TIE2 p.L914F during mouse development causes embryonic lethality and defects in vascular remodeling

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sporadic venous malformation (VM) is associated with the hyperactivating p.L914F mutation in TIE2, a receptor tyrosine kinase essential for vascular development. This mutation is not found in hereditary VM, suggesting incompatibility with life when expressed during early vascular development.
