Congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (CHH) can cause delayed secondary sexual characteristics and contribute to juvenile osteoporosis, with multiple causative genes having been reported. We treated a 27-year-old man diagnosed with central hypogonadism, presenting with delayed secondary sexual characteristics and juvenile osteoporosis, using bone resorption inhibitors and testosterone therapy. Genetic testing revealed missense variants both in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 () and gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor () genes, a combination that has not been previously reported.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) represents nearly one-third of congenital birth defects annually, with ventricular septal defect (VSD) being the most common type. The aim of this study was to explore the role of specific GATA binding protein 6 gene () mutations as a potential etiological factor in the development of VSD through an in silico approach. Data were collected from the human gene databases: DisGeNET and GeneCards, with protein-protein interaction networks constructed via STRING and Cytoscape.

Background Hemimegalencephaly (HME) is a rare congenital disorder that is initiated during embryonic development with abnormal growth of one hemisphere. Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), a genetic disorder, is rarely associated with HME. Methods We present a case of a newborn with HME with a confirmed mutation in the TSC-1 gene and describe the clinical course, findings on (amplitude integrated) electroencephalography (aEEG), cranial ultrasound (CUS), MRI, and the postmortem evaluation.

Patterns of Co-Occurring Birth Defects in Chinese Infants With Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: A National Hospital-Based Surveillance Study.

Birth Defects Res

January 2025

National Center for Birth Defects Monitoring, West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.

Background: The landscape of co-occurring birth defects among infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) remains underexplored.

Aims: This study aims to elucidate the complex patterns of co-occurring defects in Chinese population.

Materials And Methods: We analyzed cases from the Chinese Birth Defects Monitoring Network (2007-2019) with CDH that presented along with at least one additional defect but without a syndromic diagnosis.
