Facial asymmetry in children with either unilateral lambdoid craniosynostosis or positional posterior plagiocephaly

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 216-223, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background In unilateral lambdoid craniosynostosis (ULC), the posteriorly situated lambdoid suture of the cranial vault fuses prematurely. Positional posterior plagiocephaly (PPP) causes flattening of the posterior side of the head, either through external forces or through underlying differences in brain development.

Biallelic GTF2IRD1 variants in brothers with profound neurodevelopmental disorder: A possible novel disorder involving a critical gene for Williams syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 2, Page 332-337, February 2023., 2023
Abstract GTF2IRD1, a gene on chromosome 7 which encodes a transcription factor, is of significant clinical interest due to its heterozygous loss as part of the classical deletion associated with Williams–Beuren syndrome (WBS). However, biallelic variants in GTF2IRD1 alone as part of an autosomal recessive disease have not been previously reported. Here,

Belimumab use during pregnancy: Interim results of the belimumab pregnancy registry

Birth Defects Research, Volume 115, Issue 2, Page 188-204, January 15, 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Belimumab is approved for active, autoantibody‐positive systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and lupus nephritis, but limited data exist regarding its use in pregnancy. The Belimumab Pregnancy Registry (BPR, GSK Study BEL114256; NCT01532310) was created to evaluate pregnancy and infant outcomes following belimumab exposure.

Abnormal Bone Collagen Cross‐Linking in Osteogenesis Imperfecta/Bruck Syndrome Caused by Compound Heterozygous PLOD2 Mutations

JBMR Plus, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT Bruck syndrome (BS) is a congenital disorder characterized by joint flexion contractures, skeletal dysplasia, and increased bone fragility, which overlaps clinically with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). On a genetic level, BS is caused by biallelic mutations in either FKBP10 or PLOD2.

Positional plagiocephaly

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2014
Positional plagiocephaly (deformational or occipital plagiocephaly) is the most common head-shape deformity, which is presented to specialist craniofacial units. The aim of management is to reduce pressure on the affected area in the expectation that brain growth will drive normalization of the head shape.
