Phenotypic Variation in a Four-Generation Family with Aniridia Carrying a Novel PAX6 Mutation

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2018
Aniridia is a congenital disease that affects almost all eye structures and is primarily caused by loss-of-function mutations in the PAX6 gene. The degree of vision loss in aniridia varies and is dependent on the extent of foveal, iris, and optic nerve ...

Optic nerve hypoplasia and septo‐optic‐pituitary dysplasia

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Optic nerve hypoplasia and septo‐optic‐pituitary dysplasia. Abstract The presence of a small optic disc on funduscopy is prerequisite for the diagnosis of optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH). Visual acuity may be normal. However, amblyopia can occur in ONH. A relative afferent pupillary light defect indicates unilateral or asymmetrical ONH.

RLIM‐associated neurodevelopmental disorders: From clinical spectrum to molecular mechanisms

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
RLIM (RNF12) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase essential for mammalian development. Loss‐of‐function variants cause Tønne–Kalscheuer syndrome, while duplications cause Xq13 duplication syndrome, highlighting RLIM dosage sensitivity. This review summarizes the genetics, clinical features, and molecular mechanisms of RLIM‐associated disorders, integrating ...

Elevated Nocturnal CO2 and Autonomic Dysfunction in Children With Down Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) frequently complicates Down syndrome (DS). Beyond upper airway obstruction, emerging evidence suggests an autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction affecting CO2 regulation. The aim of this study was to investigate nocturnal gas exchanges in children with DS and compare them to what has been ...

CHARGE Syndrome: A Narrative Review and Update on Diagnosis, Assessment and Management

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background CHARGE syndrome (CS) is a rare multisystemic genetic condition caused by a pathogenic variant in the DNA‐binding protein‐7 CHD7 gene. The condition affects the development of neural crest cells, which give rise to craniofacial structures, cranial nerves, ears, eyes and the heart, resulting in diverse and complex clinical features ...
