Non‐RASopathy Genetic Syndromes Identified as the Molecular Cause of Disease in Patients Previously Diagnosed With Noonan Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by typical facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, and developmental delays. While variants in genes such as PTPN11, SOS1, and RAF1 account for most genetically confirmed cases, diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic overlap ...

The pre-surgical role of halo-traction in patients with cervical infection associated with refractory kyphosis: a retrospective study

Scientific Reports, 2023
To minimize surgical complications and staged procedures halo-traction is often used during deformity corrections. But the use of halo-traction in the treatment of refractory cervical kyphosis secondary to infections has never been reported.

Loss of ANK3 Function Causes a Recessive Neurodevelopmental Disorder with Cerebellar Ataxia

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background ANK3 encodes ankyrin‐G, a key scaffolding protein essential for neuronal function. While both monoallelic and biallelic ANK3 variants have been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), existing evidence for their pathogenicity and clinical correlation remains limited and heterogeneous.
