An n‐of‐1 gene‐directed drug repurposing trial for an ultrarare genetic condition

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Gain‐of‐function (GoF) variants in the KCNC1 potassium channel subunit gene (Kv3.1) cause motor/cognitive delays and hypotonia and have been associated with seizures. Fluoxetine has inhibitory effects on Kv3.1. However, open‐label nonrandomized administration is insufficient to guide clinical decision‐making in ultrarare conditions ...

Treatment of Nystagmus and Saccadic Oscillations

open access: yes, 2012
Nystagmus is often encountered in neuro-ophthalmic practice, having a prevalence of about 24 per 10,000 in the general population. Unlike physiologic nystagmus, where the slow phases of nystagmus serve to minimize retinal image slip, the slow phases of ...

Gene burden meta‐analysis of 748 879 individuals identifies LGI1‐ADAM23 protein complex association with epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy affects more than 50 million individuals globally and has a substantial genetic component that remains to be completely understood. Traditional studies have focused on severe, early onset cases enrolled through clinical or research settings.

Real‐world‐data for phenotypes and genotypes of rare monogenic genetic epilepsies and genes of uncertain significance for epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives The objectives of this study were to develop a real‐world‐data (RWD) database for patients with epilepsy to provide further real‐world‐evidence (RWE) for monogenic genetic epilepsies; to assess the usefulness of a diagnostic algorithm in epilepsy; and to examine protein 3D structures using in silico tools to predict variant ...

The safe and effective use of tofacitinib and ustekinumab combination therapy in infantile onset inflammatory bowel disease

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile‐onset inflammatory bowel disease (IOIBD) is a rare and severe subset of very‐early‐onset IBD, often associated with immune dysregulation and poor response to conventional therapies. Data regarding the use of Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKI) in this population is limited.

The Epidemiology and Clinical Presentation of the Acute Imbalance Syndrome (AIS)-A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesEur J Neurol
ABSTRACT Objectives The acute imbalance syndrome (AIS) refers to acute‐onset and persistent vertigo, dizziness and/or imbalance without nystagmus, reflecting a subset of the acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) with or without nystagmus. While AVS with nystagmus is well characterized and the approach to these patients is validated, much less is known about ...

Beyond Skin and Eyes: The Medical and Social Burden of Oculocutaneous Albinism in Africa: A Narrative Review

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a genetic disorder found worldwide, but its impact is particularly pronounced in the African continent. This results from both a higher prevalence and the persistent myths and superstitions surrounding the condition in many African communities.

Movement Disorders in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) frequently feature co‐occurring movement disorders. Gene discovery has expanded epilepsy‐dyskinesia syndromes (EDS) from classic associations such as stereotypies in Rett syndrome to PRRT2‐related infantile seizures with paroxysmal dyskinesia and crouched gait in SCN1A ...
