Published: February 2021

Chromosomal microdeletion syndromes usually present with neurological abnormalities, developmental delays, and various systemic abnormalities. 1p31 microdeletion syndrome is one of the novel microdeletion syndromes that usually presents with developmental delay, intellectual disability, various craniofacial abnormalities, and other systemic abnormalities in a proportion of cases. NEGR1 and NFIA are few of the genes present in this locus responsible for these symptoms. However, none of the reported cases had only isolated intellectual disability. Here, we are reporting a case of 1p31 microdeletion syndrome with isolated moderate intellectual disability and hyperactivity in an 11-year-old boy. It is essential for clinicians to be aware of such an atypical presentation of 1p31.1 microdeletion syndrome, to maintain reasonable clinical suspicion in cases with unexplained intellectual disability.

-related disorder (SRD) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by a disruption of the gene. At the beginning of 2024, it is one of many rare monogenic brain disorders without disease-modifying treatments, but that is changing. This article chronicles the last 5 years, beginning when treatments for SRD were not publicly in development, to the start of 2024 when many SRD-specific treatments are advancing.

Introduction: Sedentary behaviour among individuals with intellectual disabilities, driven by barriers such as limited access to adapted programs and low self-efficacy, contributes to chronic health conditions. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Valemee Visual System (VVS), a novel tool offering visual support and structured exercise programming, in improving physical fitness and promoting exercise independence in this population.

Methods: A repeated measures design was employed with an 8-week intervention involving 22 participants aged 22-44 with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities.

Background: The current literature has established that prejudice in child protection cases with parents with intellectual disabilities continues to persist. However, complexities of these cases are not well-understood from the perspective of child protection workers. This study aimed to identify the needs of child protection workers and their views on factors that influence supports for parents with intellectual disabilities.
