Dual Aberrant Splicing Caused by an Apparently Missense CHD7 Variant, c.5273A>G (p.Asp1758Gly), in CHARGE Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome is a rare congenital disorder primarily attributed to heterozygous pathogenic variants of the CHD7 gene. Most pathogenic CHD7 variants are loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants, whereas the interpretation of missense variants remains challenging in the absence of functional evidence for their pathogenicity.

Severe Headbanging Responsive to Levodopa in a Child With FOXP1 Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a 9‐year‐old female with FOXP1 syndrome due to a de novo in‐frame deletion in the FOXP1 gene. The child has a severe neurodevelopmental disorder including global developmental delay and autism spectrum disorder. At age 2, she developed severe headbanging, which was progressive and did not respond to multidisciplinary, behavioral ...

Thermoregulation, incubator humidity, and skincare practices in appropriate for gestational age ultra-low birth weight infants: need for more evidence

Background: Although not universal, active care is being offered to infants weighing < 500 g at birth, referred to as ultra-low birth weight (ULBW) infants appropriate for gestational age. These infants have the greatest risk of dying or developing major

Reframing Trisomy 13 and 18 Care: Moving Beyond the Myth of “Incompatibility With Life” in a South African and Low‐and Middle‐Income Country Context

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trisomy 13 (T13) and trisomy 18 (T18) have historically been described as “lethal” or “incompatible with life,” contributing to diagnosis‐based limitations of care. Contemporary evidence demonstrates greater heterogeneity in survival and outcomes than previously recognized, including among selected children receiving intensive care or cardiac ...

Biallelic PAX6 Variants in an Adult With Severe Microphthalmia and Preserved Intellectual Function

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PAX6 encodes a dosage‐sensitive transcription factor that is essential for eye development. Heterozygous PAX6 disease is well characterized, but biallelic disease is extremely rare and has been associated with anophthalmia, severe brain malformations, and perinatal lethality.
