Defining Features of Gabriele‐de Vries Syndrome in Adults: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gabriele‐de Vries syndrome (GADEVS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the YY1 gene. Like most rare genetic syndromes, the adult manifestations of GADEVS remain poorly defined. Here, we describe the oldest patient reported to date with GADEVS—a 63‐year‐old woman with a c.1177_1179del YY1 variant ...

Assessment of Growth in Cardio‐Facio‐Cutaneous Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardio‐facio‐cutaneous (CFC) syndrome is a rare, multiple congenital anomaly disorder in which individuals commonly experience faltering growth; however, systematic analysis of growth parameters in this disorder has not been performed. We recruited 69 participants with CFC through CFC International and collected data on assessing height ...

Chiari I Malformation: Review and Update of Current Treatment Options

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pathophysiology of Chiari malformation type I (CM‐I) is complex, involving structural abnormalities at the craniovertebral junction that result in herniation of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. In this study, we aim to present and evaluate current treatment options for CM‐I, with a focus on evidence‐based clinical ...

Safety and Perioperative Outcomes of Immediate Versus Delayed Sequential Bilateral Cataract Surgery in the Pediatric Population: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesEye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bilateral congenital cataracts are a major cause of preventable childhood blindness. Although delayed sequential bilateral cataract surgery (DSBCS) has traditionally been the preferred approach, immediate sequential bilateral cataract surgery (ISBCS) is increasingly being considered to reduce anesthesia exposure and healthcare ...
