Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders affecting approximately 50 million people worldwide. It impacts people of all genders and ages, but evidence suggests a higher incidence rate in children and the elderly. Given that childhood epilepsy has the risk of causing developmental epileptic encephalopathy, which is associated with intellectual, behavioral, and/or motor disabilities, proper assessment of children with new-onset epilepsy at an early stage is essential to prevent threats affecting neurodevelopmental processes.

This study presents the first reported case of a Korean patient with Alpha-1,3-Mannosyltransferase-Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (ALG3-CDG), characterized by a novel maternally inherited missense mutation and a previously reported paternally inherited nonsense mutation. The patient exhibited typical ALG3-CDG manifestations, including developmental delays, epilepsy, and multisystem involvement, alongside a diagnosis of Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS). Cannabidiol therapy, combined with dietary management, led to seizure freedom for over 13 months, significant EEG improvement, and enhanced developmental outcomes.

The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway triggers the degradation of defective mRNAs and governs the expression of mRNAs with specific characteristics. Current understanding indicates that NMD is often significantly suppressed during viral infections to protect the viral genome. In numerous viruses, this inhibition is achieved through direct or indirect interference with the RNA helicase UPF1, thereby promoting viral replication and enhancing pathogenesis.

Early-onset Myopathy, Areflexia, Respiratory Distress and Dysphagia (EMARDD) is a congenital neuromuscular disease with a progressive muscle weakness, respiratory failure, joint contractures, and scoliosis without any symptoms of functional brain anomalies caused by variants in the MEGF10 gene. Here, we report the clinical phenotype and genetic features of a Moroccan patient who carries a novel variant associated with EMARDD on the MEGF10 gene. The Whole Exome Sequencing analysis conducted on a 11 year old boy with respiratory and swallowing difficulties revealed the presence of the novel variant c.
