Growth Charts for Children With Beckwith–Wiedemann Spectrum

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beckwith–Wiedemann spectrum (BWSp) is an overgrowth disorder caused by (epi)genetic alterations in chromosome 11p15. This study aimed to develop BWSp‐specific growth charts and explore genotype/phenotype correlations with respect to growth. Heights, weights, and head circumferences were retrospectively collected from 581 individuals with BWSp ...

Double gene mutations of LRSAM1 and REEP1 and a new REEP1 mutation site found in a patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with subjective paresthesia: A case report

Ibrain, EarlyView., 2023
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by selective degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. Leucine‐rich repeats and sterility α mutations in motif 1 (LRSAM1) has been proven to be involved in the pathogenesis of ALS.

Extended Growth Curves for the Wolf‐Hirschhorn Syndrome (4p‐)

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wolf‐Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a rare, highly variable contiguous gene deletion syndrome caused by deletions of the distal portion of the short arm of chromosome 4. Individuals with this disorder have prenatal onset of poor growth of all dimensions, along with neurological manifestations, developmental disability, and distinctive facial ...

Phenotypic Characterization of Seven Pediatric Patients Diagnosed With KAT6B‐Related Disorders: Case Series and Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genitopatellar syndrome (GPS) and Say‐Barber‐Biesecker‐Young‐Simpson Syndrome (SBBYSS) are clinically distinct neurodevelopmental disorders caused by monoallelic pathogenic variants in KAT6B. In some cases, GPS and SBBYSS features can overlap, determining an intermediate phenotype.

Utilities as Random Variables: Density Estimation and Structure Discovery [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Decision theory does not traditionally include uncertainty over utility functions. We argue that the a person's utility value for a given outcome can be treated as we treat other domain attributes: as a random variable with a density function over its possible values.

Prenatal Diagnosis Innovation: Genome Sequencing of Maternal Plasma.

Annual Review of Medicine, 2016
Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is accomplished by analysis of circulating cell-free fetal nucleic acids in maternal plasma. The advent of massively parallel sequencing (MPS) has enabled NIPT of chromosomal aneuploidies with unprecedented robustness,

Prenatal Brain Abnormalities in Sodium‐Dependent Multivitamin Transporter Deficiency

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In treatable neurometabolic disorders, early diagnosis and prompt initiation of treatment are key to improved survival and outcomes. Biallelic variants in SLC5A6 cause sodium‐dependent multivitamin transporter deficiency (OMIM # 618973), which is treatable with high‐dose pantothenic acid, biotin, and alpha lipoic acid.
