Chromosome region 10q22.3-q23.3 contains several low copy repeats (LCRs) and is prone to recombination. Deletions with breakpoints within LCR3 and LCR4 have been described to be associated with intellectual disability and dysmorphic features, while the reciprocal duplications are rarely reported. We present an additional case with multiple congenital anomalies that include microcephaly, cardiac defect, and mild intellectual disability, in which a de novo interstitial 8.2-Mb duplication of 10q22.3-q23.3, including BMPR1A and NGR3, was identified by Illumina SNP array platform. Our study is consistent with the hypothesis that the BMPR1A is a plausible candidate gene for congenital heart disease (CHD) and should contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of these genomic diseases.

Background: X-linked intellectual disability (XLID) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder that results in cognitive impairment and developmental delays. Mutations in the KDM5C gene have been identified as a causative factor in XLID. This study aimed to identify novel variants associated with XLID and to investigate the clinical and genetic characteristics of XLID patients with mutations in the KDM5C gene.

Dias-Logan syndrome, also known as intellectual developmental disorder with persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HbF), or -related intellectual developmental disorder, is an extremely rare neurogenetic disorder characterized by intellectual disability (ID), delayed psychomotor development, variable dysmorphic features, and asymptomatic persistence of fetal hemoglobin. The prevalence and incidence of this condition are currently unknown. We report an 8-year-old Han Chinese male patient with Dias-Logan syndrome who carries a heterozygous pathogenic variant, c.

Bainbridge-Ropers Syndrome (BRPS) is a genetic condition resulting from truncating variants in the ASXL3 gene. The clinical features include neurodevelopmental and language impairments, behavioral issues, hypotonia, feeding difficulties, and distinctive facial features. In this retrospective study, we analyzed 22 Spanish individuals with BRPS, aiming to perform a detailed clinical and molecular description and establish a genotype-phenotype correlation.

Background: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disease characterised by the growth of benign tumours. The Tuberous sclerosis Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders (TAND) Checklist is used to identify patient-reported neurocognitive deficits. Patients may, however, under-recognise mild cognitive impairment.
