Small for gestational age and obesity related comorbidities [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2018
Infant born small for gestational age (SGA) are at increased risk of perinatal morbidity, persistent short stature and metabolic alterations in later life. The result of SGA followed by rapid weight gain during early postnatal life has been associated with increased long-term risks for central obesity, insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance ...

Addressing Anemia in High‐Altitude Populations: Global Impact, Prevalence, Challenges, and Potential Solutions

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
Key challenges in diagnosing anemia in high‐altitude populations include variability in hemoglobin (Hb) concentration, associated pathological conditions, altitude‐induced plasma volume changes, and environmental factors such as contamination and nutrition.

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.

Truncating Variants in RREB1 Cause a Novel RASopathy Syndrome of Congenital Heart Disease, Genitourinary Malformations, and Developmental Delay

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interstitial 6p microdeletion syndrome is characterized by dysmorphic facies and structural heart, kidney, brain, and musculoskeletal differences. RREB1 haploinsufficiency and consequent abnormal RAS‐MAPK pathway signaling have been proposed as a driver of the disease phenotype; however, apart from a single case report, the phenotype of ...

Addressing the Diagnostic Odyssey for Adults With Neurodevelopmental Disabilities: Case Study of an Individual With Mandibulofacial Dysostosis With Microcephaly

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Whole exome sequencing (WES) has been widely used in the pediatric setting to increase diagnostic yield, provide treatment options, and to estimate reoccurrence risks. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the utility of this technology in adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities.

Is Cerebroplacental Ratio A Marker of Impaired Fetal Growth Velocity and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome? [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: The cerebroplacental ratio has been proposed as a marker of failure to reach growth potential near term. Low cerebroplacental ratio, regardless of the fetal size, is independently associated with the need for operative delivery for presumed ...

Patient With Prolidase Deficiency due to an Homozygous PEPD Variant, Induced by Paternal Uniparental Isodisomy of Chromosome 19

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uniparental disomy (UPD) is a rare phenomenon in which both copies of a chromosome are inherited from a single parent. This can lead to genomic imprinting disorders and recessive disorders due to the presence of recessive pathogenic variants in both alleles. Additionally, depending on the mechanisms by which UPD occurs, mosaic aneuploidies may
