Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

SLC7A6OS Founder Mutation: A Rare Cause of Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy Dated to 1100 Years Ago

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background SLC7A6OS c.191A>G is a rare, autosomal recessive cause of progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME). The c.191A>G variant, first discovered in two families from Türkiye and Portugal, was recently identified in three additional probands from the USA, all of Puerto Rican ancestry.

Clinical Utility of Nuchal Translucency Measurement in First‐Trimester Ultrasound Screening in a Setting With First‐Tier NIPT for Aneuploidy Screening

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

Cytogenetic and Molecular Findings in Hydrops‐Related Mirror Syndrome

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mirror syndrome is a rare, life‐threatening condition in which maternal fluid overload mirrors fetal hydrops. Data on genetic findings in affected pregnancies are limited. We compared genetic diagnoses in hydrops cases with and without mirror syndrome.

Genetic Investigation in Fetal Growth Restriction: An Integrated Approach for Clinical Practice

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International guidelines recommend genetic testing when fetal growth restriction (FGR) accompanies structural anomalies, but recommendations for apparently isolated FGR remain variable, particularly regarding gestational age thresholds and the role of exome sequencing (ES). Interpretation is difficult because studies define FGR inconsistently,

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

Andrology, 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 ...

Children Born Using Ejaculated Sperm From Men With Klinefelter Syndrome. Is Sperm Production Associated With Testicular Volume?

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A large number of children have been born using testicular sperm from men with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), whereas reports of children conceived using ejaculated sperm are rare. Objective To review all published cases of children conceived using ejaculated sperm from men with KS, assess their health and karyotype, and evaluate ...

Low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy associated with cytogenetic discrepancy between cultured amniocytes and uncultured amniocytes, perinatal progressive decrease of the trisomy 21 cell line and a favorable fetal outcome

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology
Objective: We present low-level mosaic trisomy 21 at amniocentesis in a pregnancy with a favorable fetal outcome. Case Report: A 38-year-old, gravida 2, para 1, woman underwent amniocentesis at 17 weeks of gestation because of advanced maternal age ...

Pubertal Dynamics of Sertoli and Leydig Cell Dysfunction in Klinefelter Syndrome

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Context Klinefelter syndrome (KS), defined by a 47, XXY karyotype, is commonly associated with progressive testicular failure. The precise timing of Sertoli and Leydig cell dysfunction during puberty remains unclear. Objective To determine the onset and progression of testicular insufficiency during puberty in KS, and to assess whether ...
