Early‐Onset Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders Define the Most Severe Presentation of the ATP8A2‐Related Phenotypic Spectrum

open access: yesInternational Journal of Developmental Neuroscience, Volume 86, Issue 2, April 2026.
Our short communication establishes that the most severe, early‐onset presentation of ATP8A2 deficiency is a congenital encephalopathy hallmarked by prominent, nonprogressive hyperkinetic movement disorders. Moving beyond the historical CAMRQ4 ataxia classification is essential for the accurate diagnosis of this profound extrapyramidal phenotype ...

Clinical outcomes after nondiagnostic prenatal exome sequencing: Need for balancing reassurance and residual risks in genetic counseling

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Counseling, Volume 35, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The clinical application of prenatal exome sequencing (pES) for fetal structural anomalies is relatively new. Although a prenatal genetic diagnosis has been shown to have high clinical and personal utility for families, nearly 70% of pregnancies undergoing pES will receive nondiagnostic results.

Malleostapedotomy in Patients With Stapes Fixation: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1601-1613, April 2026.
This systematic review analyses the current evidence on malleostapedotomy as a primary or revision procedure in patients with stapes fixation. Twenty‐five studies comprising 632 operated ears were included. Malleostapedotomy proved to be a safe and effective alternative to incus‐anchoring stapedoplasty, with favorable hearing outcomes and a low ...

Long‐Term Outcomes in Children With Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives We aimed to evaluate the long‐term auditory outcomes of early antiviral therapy with valganciclovir (VGCV) in children with congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection, regardless of initial symptomatology. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 56 pediatric patients (112 ears) diagnosed with cCMV infection between 2004 ...

The Homeobox Genes: Classification, Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Overview of the homeobox gene superfamily and its pathophysiological roles. The homeobox superfamily comprises several major classes, including ANTP, PRD, TALE, LIM, POU, and others. Among these, the HOX clusters (A–D) play critical roles in embryonic development specifically in conferring cellular identity, regulating morphogenesis, and guiding axial ...

Human CNTNAP1 Variants Associated With Severe Neurological Deficits: Additional Cases and Literature Review

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 517-526, April 2026.
ABSTRACT CNTNAP1 encodes the Contactin‐Associated Protein 1 (CNTNAP1), also known as Caspr1, which is a transmembrane protein critical for nervous system function. CNTNAP1 is localized to the paranodal regions of all myelinated axons, flanking either side of the node of Ranvier.

Deep Learning‐Based Inner Ear Subregion Segmentation in 3D T2‐Weighted MRI Using Label‐Preserving Data Augmentation

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2026.
A deep learning segmentation model was proposed for automated inner ear subregion segmentation using 3D T2‐weighted MRI. A transformer‐based model with label‐preserving data augmentation improves delineation of thin and complex structures such as the semicircular canals.
