Two-Dimensional Image-Based Screening Tool for Infants with Positional Cranial Deformities: A Machine Learning Approach

Diagnostics, 2020
Positional cranial deformities are relatively common conditions, characterized by asymmetry and changes in skull shape. Although three-dimensional (3D) scanning is the gold standard for diagnosing such deformities, it requires expensive laser scanners ...

Validating the Accuracy of the ‘Measurement of Baby's Head Shape™’ Mobile Application

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Volume 20, Issue 11, Page 1705-1716, November 2025.
In Japan, positional cranial deformities (PCD) have received limited attention. At present, objective evaluation of the severity of cranial deformity requires specialized equipment and software that are not suitable for screening. The ‘Measurement of a baby's head shape™’ (Japan Medical Company) application quantifies plagiocephaly and brachycephaly ...

Craniosynostosis in Siblings, an Extremely Rare Occurrence: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Craniosynostosis (CS) is the premature fusion of skull sutures, with all sutures except the metopic suture typically fusing in adulthood. Premature fusion constrains brain growth, leading to abnormal skull shape and potential neurocognitive or neurological issues, along with syndromic features in some cases. While CS is rare, its occurrence in

3p14 De Novo Interstitial Microdeletion in a Patient with Intellectual Disability and Autistic Features with Language Impairment: A Comparison with Similar Cases

Case Reports in Genetics, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
To date, few cases of 3p proximal interstitial deletions have been reported and the phenotype and genotype correlation is not well understood. Here, we report a new case of a 3p proximal interstitial deletion. The patient is an 11‐year‐old female with speech and social interaction difficulties, learning disability, and slight facial dysmorphism, but no

Extrinsic Factors Influencing Fetal Deformations and Intrauterine Growth Restriction

Journal of Pregnancy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
The causes of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) are multifactorial with both intrinsic and extrinsic influences. While many studies focus on the intrinsic pathological causes, the possible long‐term consequences resulting from extrinsic intrauterine physiological constraints merit additional consideration and further investigation.
