Article Synopsis
- - The text discusses a rare genetic condition caused by a microdeletion in chromosome 16p13.11, which leads to developmental delays, neuropsychiatric issues, and various physical abnormalities.
- - A specific case report details a patient with facial dysmorphisms, autistic traits, and language delays, confirmed by genetic testing to have a 1.5 Mb deletion on chromosome 16.
- - Notably, this patient exhibited autism and significant language and motor challenges, but lacked the cognitive deficits typically seen with this genetic syndrome.
Article Synopsis
- The study compares disability progression in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients based on age of onset: pediatric (POMS), adult (AOMS), and late-onset (LOMS), as well as those with and without progression independent of relapse activity (PIRA).
- Data from 3,777 MS patients revealed that AOMS showed significant disability increases compared to POMS starting in the second year, with POMS having a less steep disability trajectory over time.
- The findings underscore that younger patients with MS experience different disability progression patterns than older patients, highlighting the importance of age in MS disease management.

Recent studies have revealed increasingly worse and more complex mental health conditions in young people, which is reflected in a growing trend in emergency room (ER) visits for acute psychopathological symptoms (APSs). This phenomenon has become exacerbated in recent decades, with a peak in the post-pandemic period. To better characterize the phenomenon, we investigated the change in the rate and type of ER counseling requests provided at the Child Neuropsychiatry Unit of the University Hospital of Bari, Italy over the period between 2019 and 2023 for subjects younger than 18 years old.
