A Case of Prader‐Willi Syndrome With a Deletion Including MAGEL2, NDN, and MKRN3, but Excluding SNRPN and SNORD116

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prader‐Willi syndrome (PWS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder typically caused by large deletions or imprinting defects on chromosome 15q11.2, encompassing multiple genes. While the contribution of individual genes to the PWS phenotype remains unclear, previous studies suggested that isolated deletions of MAGEL2, NDN, and MKRN3, excluding the ...

Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

Solriamfetol for Excessive Sleepiness in Obstructive Sleep Apnea (TONES 3). A Randomized Controlled Trial.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2019
Rationale: Primary treatment of obstructive sleep apnea can be accompanied by a persistence of excessive sleepiness despite adherence. Furthermore, effectiveness of sleep apnea treatment is limited by poor adherence.
