Rare bleeding disorders [PDF]

open access: yesHaemophilia, 2012
Summary.  Rare bleeding disorders (RBDs) include the inherited deficiencies of fibrinogen, factor (F)II, FV, FV+FVIII, FVII, FX, FXI and FXIII. There have been remarkable advances in understanding the molecular profiles that lead to each type of coagulation factor deficiency.

Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis: a rare disorder with a rare presentation [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2012
A young man was brought for mental retardation, frequent non-bloody diarrhoea and swellings at ankles and elbow. He became bed-ridden due to cataract, mental retardation and pain in the back and lower limb. There were repeated pathological fractures and vitamin D deficiency without renal dysfunction.

Children with a rare congenital genetic disorder: a systematic review of parent experiences

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Background Caring for a child with a chronic disease may be demanding and stressful. When a child has a rare condition, the impact of care on parents is amplified due to the rarity of the diagnosis.

Rare disorders have many faces: in silico characterization of rare disorder spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
AbstractBackgroundThe diagnostic journey for many rare disease patients remains challenging despite use of latest genetic technological advancements. We hypothesize that some patients remain undiagnosed due to more complex diagnostic scenarios that are currently not considered in genome analysis pipelines.

Mitochondrial dysfunction and autism: comprehensive genetic analyses of children with autism and mtDNA deletion

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2018
Background The etiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is very heterogeneous. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been described in ASD; however, primary mitochondrial disease has been genetically proven in a small subset of patients.

Longitudinal evolution of sleep disturbances in early multiple system atrophy: a 2‐year prospective cohort study

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2023
Background The progression of sleep disturbances remains unclear in patients with early multiple system atrophy (MSA). We aimed to explore the frequency, severity, and coexistence of 2-year longitudinal changes of sleep disturbances including REM sleep ...

Genetic and functional analyses of SHANK2 mutations suggest a multiple hit model of Autism spectrum disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental disorders with a complex inheritance pattern. While many rare variants in synaptic proteins have been identified in patients with ASD, little is known about their effects at ...

The Role of Genetic Testing in the Clinical Practice and Research of Early-Onset Parkinsonian Disorders in a Hungarian Cohort: Increasing Challenge in Genetic Counselling, Improving Chances in Stratification for Clinical Trials

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
The genetic analysis of early-onset Parkinsonian disorder (EOPD) is part of the clinical diagnostics. Several genes have been implicated in the genetic background of Parkinsonism, which is clinically indistinguishable from idiopathic Parkinson’s disease.

Rapid Clathrin-Mediated Uptake of Recombinant α-Gal-A to Lysosome Activates Autophagy

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant alpha-galactosidase A (rh-α-Gal A) is the standard treatment for Fabry disease (FD). ERT has shown a significant impact on patients; however, there is still morbidity and mortality in FD, resulting in ...
