Sliding Guide System Concept for 3D Motion of the Hip Joint in Walking Assist Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The human hip joint has three degrees of freedom. However, most current walking assist robots only support flexion–extension. As the human femoral head is almost a perfect sphere, the sliding guide system employs two guide plates that contour spherical surfaces.

Topology Optimization of Exo‐Glove Poly II for Enhancing Functionality and Wearability

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes a topology optimization method for Exo‐Glove Poly II to enhance functionality and wearability. By modeling its finger body as a longitudinally periodic structure, a unit cell‐level optimization—aimed at minimizing distortion and achieving user‐preferred stretchability—is established. Experimental validation shows reduced distortion,

Quality of Life of Families Who Have Children With Cornelia de Lange Syndrome in Brazil: Opportunities for Improvement

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This exploratory cross‐sectional study aimed to estimate the family quality of life (FQoL) among 70 Brazilian families with children with Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS). Data were collected using sociodemographic and clinical data forms, the Barthel index for activities of daily living, and the Beach Center FQoL Scale, a 5‐point Likert tool

Patient With Prolidase Deficiency due to an Homozygous PEPD Variant, Induced by Paternal Uniparental Isodisomy of Chromosome 19

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uniparental disomy (UPD) is a rare phenomenon in which both copies of a chromosome are inherited from a single parent. This can lead to genomic imprinting disorders and recessive disorders due to the presence of recessive pathogenic variants in both alleles. Additionally, depending on the mechanisms by which UPD occurs, mosaic aneuploidies may

Long‐Read Whole‐Genome Sequencing Uncovers a Deletion Upstream to HOXD13 Causing Synpolydactyly

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Synpolydactyly (SPD) is a heterogeneous distal‐limb malformation syndrome, characterized by webbing and duplication of adjacent digits. SPD1, the most common type, is attributed to disease‐causing variants in HOXD13, a transcription factor in the HOXD cluster that is essential for limb development. Here, we present a challenging exome‐negative

Chromosome 3q22.2‐q26.2 Interstitial Deletion in a Patient With Wisconsin Syndrome, Blepharophimosis‐Ptosis‐Epicanthus Inversus Syndrome, Dandy‐Walker Malformation, Pierre Robin Sequence, and Recurrent Infections

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wisconsin syndrome is a very rare genetic condition characterized by coarse facies, prominent nasal tip, bushy high arched/upsweeping eyebrows, and a full/everted lower lip. Deletion of chromosome 3q24q25 region is considered critical for its manifestation.
