Implications for Newborn and Child Growth Classification Using INTERGROWTH‐21st and WHO Child Growth Standards

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to assess how the use of the WHO Child Growth Standards (WHO GS) and the INTERGROWTH‐21st Standards (IG‐21st) affect the classification and interpretation of growth trajectories. Design A secondary data analysis of an observational cohort study.

Inhibin βB Mediates Oligotrophic Adaptation via Regulating Muscle Satellite Cell Proliferation and Differentiation in Schizopygopsis younghusbandi

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
① Nutrient deficiency upregulates inhibin βB, activating SMAD signaling to promote p21. Increased p21 inhibits mcm2/mcm4/mcm5 and cyclin E2, inducing G1‐phase arrest, slowing growth, and reducing energy consumption. ② Inhibin βB also upregulates pdgf‐c, which induces α‐SMA, leading to muscle satellite cell fibrosis.

Pathogenicity of NUSAP1 Variants Is Defined by NMD-Escape: Evidence From Two Novel Cases and Systematic Population-Based Variant Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Genet
Heterozygous de novo nonsense variants in the penultimate and last exons of NUSAP1 were identified in two unrelated individuals, predicted to escape NMD. In population data, nonsense variants were observed in exons 1–9 (of 11) in NUSAP1 but were absent from its 3′‐terminal region.

Spectrum of Congenital Malformations in Sex Chromosome Tetrasomies and Pentasomies: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sex chromosome aneuploidies represent a heterogeneous group of chromosomal conditions, in which phenotypic complexity generally increases with the number of supernumerary sex chromosomes. While Turner syndrome and sex chromosome trisomies are relatively well characterized, less is known about congenital malformations in sex chromosome ...

Diagnostic Yield of Brain MRI in Pediatric Short Stature: Hypothalamic–Pituitary Lesions and Incidental Findings in Real‐World Practice

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Brain MRI is widely performed in children with short stature or suspected growth hormone deficiency(GHD) to exclude hypothalamic–pituitary (HP) pathology, yet its diagnostic yield in routine practice is uncertain. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence, clinical significance, and distribution of HP and extrahypothalamic abnormalities ...

Deep Phenotyping in ReNU Syndrome Identifies a Recognizable Age‐Dependent Clinical Trajectory

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Longitudinal evaluation of 11 individuals with ReNU syndrome revealed an age‐dependent multisystem trajectory. This longitudinal description may help clinicians anticipate changing needs in feeding, growth, neurological, visual, communication, behavioral, and orthopedic care. ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in the noncoding gene RNU4‐2 cause ReNU syndrome,

Small size, big problems: insights and difficulties in prenatal diagnosis of fetal microcephaly

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Microcephaly is a sign, not a diagnosis. Its incidence varies widely due to the differences in the definition and the population being studied. It is strongly related to neurodevelopmental disorders.

Cerebral Ventriculomegaly With Abnormality of the Aqueduct of Sylvius: A Case Series

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Genetic testing leads to a diagnostic rate of ~30% in a fetal cohort with cerebral ventriculomegaly where the neuropathological examination revealed a stenosis or atresia of the aqueduct of Sylvius. ABSTRACT Fetal cerebral ventriculomegalies are brain anomalies with potentially poor neurodevelopmental prognosis.

Expanding the Biochemical Phenotype of ReNU Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
This report detailed the clinical findings and the biochemical phenotype of a 3‐year‐old girl with ReNU syndrome. Circulating biomarkers and a muscle biopsy s uggested mild mitochondrial abnormalities. Severe plasmalogen deficiency was also observed, comparable to defects of peroxisomal plasmalogen biosynthesis.
