Congenital Insensitivity to Pain With Anhidrosis: First Reported Case in Nepal. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by anhidrosis, self‐mutilation, and insensitivity to pain and temperature. While genetic testing confirms the diagnosis, it is not always feasible, making clinical recognition crucial in resource‐limited settings.

Case report: Whole exome sequencing identifies a novel variant in the HPRT1 gene in a male with developmental delay [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
Lesch-Nyhan syndrome (LNS, OMIM #300322) is a rare X-linked genetic disorder caused by variants in the HPRT1 gene, which codes for the Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT).

The Role of Metabolic Testing in the Diagnostic Evaluation of Adult NORSE: A Retrospective, Single‐Centre Study [PDF]

open access: yesEur J Neurol
ABSTRACT Background New‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is a diagnostically challenging and severe epileptic presentation in which aetiology is an important predictor of outcome. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the utility of metabolic screening to determine the underlying cause in 42 patients with suspected NORSE, admitted to

Epigenetic modulation of human neurobiological disorders: Lesch-Nyhan disease as a model disorder [PDF]

open access: yesAIMS Neuroscience
Epigenetics is the study of how cells control gene activity without changing the DNA sequence. Epigenetic changes affect how genes are turned on and off or expressed, and thus help regulate how cells in different parts of the body use the same genetic ...
