A Deep Intronic Splice Variant in COL1A1 Causing Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type II.

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare disease, hallmarked by bone fragility, multiple fractures, and deformities, and is commonly caused by pathogenic variants in the genes encoding type I collagen. Type II OI is the most severe form and is lethal in the perinatal period. Here, we report recurrence of perinatal lethal OI in two fetuses due to parental mosaicism for a deep intronic pathogenic variant at c.

Uneven Distribution of Purkinje Cell Injury in the Cerebellar Vermis of Term Neonates with Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy.

In term neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), cerebellar injury is becoming more and more acknowledged. Animal studies demonstrated that Purkinje cells (PCs) are especially vulnerable for hypoxic-ischemic injury. In neonates, however, the extent and pattern of PC injury has not been investigated.

Timing of cerebral damage in molybdenum cofactor deficiency: A meta-analysis of case reports.

Purpose: Molybdenum cofactor deficiency (MoCD) classically presents shortly after birth, with neurological symptoms ascribed to postnatal toxicity of accumulating sulphite. Case reports suggest that cerebral damage associated with MoCD may have a prenatal onset.

Methods: A meta-analysis of case reports was performed on individuals with genetically proven MoCD retrieved through a systematic review and in-house search.

Placental histopathology in early-onset fetal growth restriction with use of sildenafil, a secondary analysis of the Dutch STRIDER study.

Objectives: Placental pathology lesions are common in early-onset fetal growth restriction (eoFGR). Therapeutic interventions to improve eoFGR outcomes are needed. In the international STRIDER trials (Sildenafil Therapy In Dismal prognosis Early-onset intrauterine growth Restriction) sildenafil didn't improve perinatal outcomes of eoFGR.
