Gene mutations in sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis and genotype–phenotype correlation analysis
Background Sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis (S-LAM) is a rare neoplasm with heterogeneous clinical features that is conventionally considered to be related to TSC2.

Deep developmental phenotyping in children with tuberous sclerosis complex, with and without autism
Plain language summary: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/dmcn.16312 Abstract Aim To characterize autism and co‐occurring tuberous sclerosis‐associated neuropsychiatric disorders (TAND) in children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), addressing evidence gaps by using deep developmental phenotyping in a single cohort.

Summary: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a multisystem tumor-forming disorder caused by loss of TSC1 or TSC2. Renal manifestations predominately include cysts and angiomyolipomas. Despite a well-described monogenic etiology, the cellular pathogenesis

Rationale: Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors that present variable outcomes. To date, no effective therapies or reliable prognostic markers are available for patients who develop metastatic PPGL (mPPGL).

Medication‐resistant epilepsy is associated with a unique gut microbiota signature
Abstract Objective Dysfunction of the microbiota–gut–brain axis is emerging as a new pathogenic mechanism in epilepsy, potentially impacting on medication response and disease outcome. We investigated the composition of the gut microbiota in a cohort of medication‐resistant (MR) and medication‐sensitive (MS) pediatric patients with epilepsy.

Abstract Objective This real‐world, retrospective, multicenter study aims to investigate the effectiveness of highly purified cannabidiol (CBD) in a large cohort of patients with epilepsy of genetic etiology due to an identified monogenic cause. Additionally, we examine the potential relationship between specific genetic subgroups and treatment ...

Abstract Objective A large proportion of pediatric epilepsies have an underlying genetic etiology. Limited studies have explored the efficacy of whole genome sequencing (WGS) in a clinical setting. Our academic–clinical center implemented clinical whole exome sequencing (WES) in 2014, then transitioned to WGS from 2015.
