Osteogenesis Imperfecta: A study of the patient journey in 13 European countries

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Introduction Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heritable skeletal disorder and comprises various subtypes that differ in clinical presentation, with Type I considered the least severe and Types III/IV the most severe forms.

Best practice guidelines in managing the craniofacial aspects of skeletal dysplasia

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Recognition and appropriate management of the craniofacial manifestations of patients with skeletal dysplasia are challenging, due to the rarity of these conditions, and dearth of literature to support evidence-based clinical decision making ...

Musculoskeletal Phenotypes of 19 Patients With X‐Linked HNRNPH2‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder: A Prospective Case Series

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Detailed clinical phenotypes have been previously reported for 33 individuals with X‐linked HNRNPH2‐related neurodevelopmental disorder. Of these, 75% self‐reported a musculoskeletal abnormality, including hip dysplasia, scoliosis, kyphosis, lordosis, pes planus, arthritis, and missing spinous processes.

Pelvic radiograph in skeletal dysplasias: An approach

open access: yesIndian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2017
The bony pelvis is constituted by the ilium, ischium, pubis, and sacrum. The pelvic radiograph is an important component of the skeletal survey performed in suspected skeletal dysplasia.

Concurrent Germline RB1 & Mosaic TP53 in a Child With Multiple Childhood Cancers

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a patient with a pathogenic germline variant (PGV) in RB1 and somatic mosaicism for a pathogenic TP53 variant who developed three distinct types of childhood cancer: retinoblastoma, osteosarcoma, and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) before the age of 6 years.

Systematic Cardiac Phenotyping of Patients With Copy Number Variants in the 15q11.2 Breakpoint 1 to Breakpoint 2 Region: A Retrospective Cohort Study From Nine Pediatric Cardiac Centers

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microdeletions impacting 15q11.2 breakpoint (BP) 1 to BP2, adjacent to the Prader–Willi critical region, have previously described neuropsychiatric associations, with potential low penetrance presentations of congenital heart disease (CHD) also identified.

Prenatal diagnosis of recurrent moderate skeletal dysplasias in lamin B receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
The lamin B receptor (LBR) gene is located in chromosome 1q42.12 and encodes the lamin B receptor, an intracellular protein that binds to lamin B. LBR mutations are associated with a broad phenotypic spectrum ranging from non-lethal to lethal skeletal ...

Rapid-throughput skeletal phenotyping of 100 knockout mice identifies 9 new genes that determine bone strength [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Osteoporosis is a common polygenic disease and global healthcare priority but its genetic basis remains largely unknown. We report a high-throughput multi-parameter phenotype screen to identify functionally significant skeletal phenotypes in mice ...

Exome Sequencing Uncovers Phenotypic and Genotypic Heterogeneity in 196 Indian Families Evaluated for Autoinflammatory Disorders

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs) are a clinically heterogeneous group of inborn errors of immunity primarily caused by dysregulation in the innate immune system. Clinical diagnosis is often challenging due to clinical heterogeneity and the overlapping phenotypes with other inborn errors of immunity and monogenic conditions that mimic AIDs ...
