Examining associations between early adverse life events and health anxiety using the DanFund study.

Unlabelled: Childhood adverse life events, in particular illness-related events, have been proposed as a risk factor for development of health anxiety.

Objective: To examine: 1) The association between accumulated early adverse life events and health anxiety in adulthood and 2) The influence of specific types of life events, i.e.

Epilepsy and cataplexy in Angelman syndrome. Genotype-phenotype correlations.

Background: Angelman syndrome (AS) is a neurogenetic disorder characterized by intellectual disability, epilepsy, and low threshold for laughter.

Aims: We investigated the occurrence and severity of epilepsy and laughter-induced loss of postural muscle tone determined by the different genetic subtypes.

Methods: This study included 39 children with AS.

Neurodevelopmental outcome in Angelman syndrome: genotype-phenotype correlations.

Angelman syndrome (AS) is a neurogenetic disorder characterized by intellectual disability, developmental delay, lack of speech, and epileptic seizures. Previous studies have indicated that children with AS due to 15q11.2-q13 deletions have a more severe developmental delay and present more often autistic features than those with AS caused by other genetic etiologies.

Angelman syndrome in Denmark. birth incidence, genetic findings, and age at diagnosis.

Angelman syndrome (AS) is a neurogenetic disorder caused by loss of expression of the maternal imprinted gene UBE3A on chromosome 15q11.2-q13. Clinical features of AS include severe intellectual disability, a happy disposition, ataxia, mandibular prognatism, and epilepsy.
