Correlation study between genetic polymorphisms of melanocortin receptors and adrenocorticotropic hormone responsiveness in infantile spasms

open access: yesChinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2012
Objective To explore the possible correlation between the genetic variations of the melanocortin receptors (MCRs, including MC2R, MC3R and MC4R) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) responsiveness in patients with infantile spasms, and to investigate ...

Prominent Chiari Network as a Cause of Cyanosis in Infants: A Case Report and Implications for Pediatric Cardiology Practice

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A prominent Chiari network can cause cyanosis in infants by inducing a positional right‐to‐left atrial shunt. Accurate diagnosis enabled conservative management, delaying surgery until optimal conditions. This case emphasizes the importance of echocardiographic evaluation in differentiating cyanosis mechanisms to guide appropriate treatment in ...

Infantile spams without hypsarrhythmia: A study of 16 cases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this study, we present the electroclinical features and evolution of patients with epileptic spasms (ES) in clusters without hypsarrhythmia and with or without focal or generalized paroxysmal discharges on the interictal EEG.

Interhospital variation in the management of Brief Resolved Unexplained Events (BRUE) in infants: A Canadian multicenter cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Guidelines on Brief Resolved Unexplained Event (BRUE) only provide recommendations for infants categorized at lower risk. However, most infants fall into the higher‐risk category, leaving management decisions to individual clinicians and contributing to variation in care.

How do the many etiologies of West syndrome lead to excitability and seizures? The corticotropin releasing hormone excess hypothesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
West syndrome (WS) is associated with diverse etiological factors. This fact has suggested that there must be a 'final common pathway' for these etiologies, which operates on the immature brain to result in WS only at the maturational state present ...

Yield of Whole Genome Sequencing for Pathogenic Single Nucleotide Variants in Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

Infantile spasms: A prognostic evaluation

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2016
Few papers address the comprehensive prognosis in infantile spasms and look into the seizure profile and psychomotor outcome.We aimed to follow up children with infantile spasms to study: a) the etiology, demographics, semiology, electroencephalogram (EEG), and radiological pattern; b) seizure control, psychomotor development, and EEG resolution with ...
