The X-linked NONO gene encodes Non-Pou Domain-Containing Octamer-Binding Protein, a multifunctional member of the DBHS family involved in transcriptional regulation, RNA splicing and DNA repair. Pathogenic variants in NONO cause Intellectual Developmental Disorder, X-linked Syndromic (MIM #300967), characterised by intellectual disability, neurodevelopmental delay, cardiomyopathy, such as left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC), and congenital heart defects such as including atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and patent foramen ovale (PFO). This study reports three new patients with pathogenic hemizygous frameshift variants in NONO identified with exome sequencing, broadening the clinical presentation.

Here, we identified five de novo and two inherited missense variants in ANO4 (alias TMEM16D) as a cause of fever-sensitive developmental and epileptic or epileptic encephalopathy (DEE/EE) and generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) or temporal lobe epilepsy. In silico modeling of the ANO4 structure predicted that all identified variants lead to destabilization of the ANO4 structure.

- DYRK1A Syndrome is caused by mutations in the DYRK1A gene, leading to global developmental delays, intellectual disability, and common physical issues like low birth weight and microcephaly.
- The study compiled growth data from 92 individuals with the syndrome, utilizing various sources including pediatric records and scientific literature.
- New growth charts were created for key measurements (height, weight, BMI, occipitofrontal circumference) for children aged 0-5 years, providing a useful tool for managing patients with DYRK1A Syndrome.
Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO), or pachydermoperiostosis, is characterized by a clinical association including digital clubbing, periostosis and pachydermia. SLCO2A1 and HPGD genes are both responsible for PHO. The pathology is classically defined as an autosomal recessive disorder with clinical variability ranging from a mild to more severe phenotype.

- Chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome (1p36DS) is a common genetic disorder resulting from a deletion on the short arm of chromosome 1, affecting 1 in every 5,000 to 10,000 live births in the U.S.
- The syndrome is characterized by a range of health issues including developmental delays, heart defects, and distinct facial features.
- This study analyzed 86 patients in France to compare the incidence of 1p36DS with other syndromes and examined how deletion locations influence specific symptoms and overall management of the disorder.
