ROSAH syndrome mimicking chronic uveitis
An autosomal dominant multi‐systemic disorder including Retinal dystrophy, Optic nerve oedema, Splenomegaly, Anhidrosis and migraine Headaches, called ROSAH syndrome, has been related to a unique missense variant in ALPK1 gene. The main morbidity is ophthalmological and most of the patients have been treated for years with immunosuppressive treatments ...

Parkinsonism in Genetic Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Systematic Review
Abstract Background With advances in clinical genetic testing, associations between genetic neurodevelopmental disorders and parkinsonism are increasingly recognized. In this review, we aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of reports on parkinsonism in genetic neurodevelopmental disorders and summarize findings related to genetic diagnosis ...

Abstract Mevalonic aciduria (MVA) and hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome (MKD/HIDS) are disorders of cholesterol biosynthesis caused by variants in the MVK gene and characterized by increased urinary excretion of mevalonic acid. So far, 30 MVA patients have been reported, suffering from recurrent febrile crises and neurologic impairment.

The systemic autoinflammatory disorders for dermatologists. Part 2: disease examples
Summary The systemic autoinflammatory disorders (SAIDS) or periodic fever syndromes are disorders of innate immunity, which can be inherited or acquired. They are almost all very rare and easily overlooked; typically, patients will have seen multiple specialities prior to diagnosis, so a high level of clinical suspicion is key.

We performed the whole‐exome sequencing of the hepato‐encephalopathy patient with MTDPS. The functional analyses revealed the clinical significance of the identified variant. Abstract Background Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MTDPS) is part of a group of mitochondrial diseases characterized by a reduction in mitochondrial DNA copy number.

Abstract In the rapidly growing group of rare genetic disorders, data scarcity demands an intelligible use of available data, in order to improve understanding of underlying pathophysiology. We hypothesize, based on the principle that clinical similarities may be indicative of shared pathophysiology, that determining phenotypic specificity could ...

Background/Aims: Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD), is a hereditary disease due to mutations in mevalonate kinase gene (MVK). MKD has heterogeneous clinical phenotypes: the correlation between MVK mutations and MKD clinical phenotype is still to be ...

Mevalonic Aciduria in a Child Featuring Hepatic Fibrosis and Novel Mevalonate Kinase Mutations [PDF]
Mevalonic aciduria (MVA) is an inborn error of isoprene biosynthesis caused by mevalonate kinase (MVK) gene mutations. Described below is a case of a Palestinian MVA patient suffering from prolonged fevers as well as from hepatic fibrosis - a rare feature of MVA. Also demonstrated is a unique genotype - heterozigosity of two novel MVK mu- tations; V8F (

Hints for Genetic and Clinical Differentiation of Adult‐Onset Monogenic Autoinflammatory Diseases
Monogenic autoinflammatory diseases (mAIDs) are inherited errors of innate immunity characterized by systemic inflammation recurring with variable frequency and involving the skin, serosal membranes, synovial membranes, joints, the gastrointestinal tube, and/or the central nervous system, with reactive amyloidosis as a potential severe long‐term ...
