A KLHL40 3 ' UTR splice-altering variant causes milder NEM8

open access: yes, 2022
Nemaline myopathy 8 (NEM8) is typically a severe autosomal recessive disorder associated with variants in the kelch-like family member 40 gene (KLHL40). To date, only protein-altering pathogenic variants in KLHL40 have been implicated in NEM8.

Integrated Analysis of the lncRNA‐Associated ceRNA Network in Wilms Tumor via TARGET and GEO Databases

open access: yesGenetics Research , Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common genitourinary renal tumor that typically occurs in children under 15 and is thought to be linked to somatic and germline mutations. However, the specific functional role of competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) and their potential implications in WT remain unclear.

Investigating Genetic Causes of Mendelian Congenital Myopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
This thesis investigates the genetic aetiology of congenital myopathy in families with an unresolved genetic diagnosis. In two families, massively parallel sequencing and functional analyses identified two genetic candidates: a regulatory variant (c ...

Congenital Myopathies and Muscular Dystrophies: A Single Tertiary Center Experience and Factors Associated With Long‐Term Outcomes

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 121-130, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Data on respiratory, feeding, ambulatory outcomes and prognostic factors for congenital myopathies (CM) and congenital muscular dystrophies (CMD) remain limited. Therefore, in this study, we report the characteristics of a large single‐center cohort of patients with CM and CMD, focusing on long‐term outcomes and aiming to ...

Integrating Chain‐of‐Thought and Retrieval Augmented Generation Enhances Rare Disease Diagnosis From Clinical Notes

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 167-183, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Several studies show that large language models (LLMs) struggle with phenotype‐driven gene prioritization for rare diseases. These studies typically use Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms to prompt foundation models such as GPT and LLaMA to predict candidate genes.

Status Dystonicus in Children: Is it more Common than we Realize?

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, Volume 12, Issue 10, Page 1629-1634, October 2025.
Abstract Background Status dystonicus (SD) is the most severe form of dystonia, affecting predominantly children. SD is thought to be rare, but the incidence is unknown. Objective We aimed to: (1) assess the number of admissions involving SD (2) describe complications/intensive care unit (ICU) transfers, and (3) evaluate whether these changed with ...
