Genetic Causes of Syndromic and Non-Syndromic Congenital Heart Disease
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common human congenital defect, and a leading cause of death in infants. With an incidence that varies between 0.8 to 2% in neonates, congenital heart disease contributes to a much larger fraction of stillbirths.(Goldmuntz 2001; Loffredo 2000) Additionally, undiagnosed mild malformations of the heart often appear later in adulthood or remain undiagnose...
متن کاملSyndromic and non-syndromic forms of XLMR
| Genetic factors have an important role in the aetiology of mental retardation. However, their contribution is often underestimated because in developed countries, severely affected patients are mainly sporadic cases and familial cases are rare. X-chromosomal mental retardation is the exception to this rule, and this is one of the reasons why research into the genetic and molecular causes of m...
متن کاملBrain functional networks in syndromic and non-syndromic autism: a graph theoretical study of EEG connectivity
BACKGROUND Graph theory has been recently introduced to characterize complex brain networks, making it highly suitable to investigate altered connectivity in neurologic disorders. A current model proposes autism spectrum disorder (ASD) as a developmental disconnection syndrome, supported by converging evidence in both non-syndromic and syndromic ASD. However, the effects of abnormal connectivit...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of non-syndromic craniosynostosis.
Craniosynostosis is a common malformation occurring in 3-5 per 10,000 live births. Most often craniosynostosis occurs as an isolated (i.e. non-syndromic) anomaly. Non-syndromic craniosynostosis (NSC) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition that has the characteristics of a multifactorial trait. It is believed that each sutural synostosis (e.g. sagittal, coronal) represents a dif...
متن کاملGenetic, chromosomal, and syndromic causes of neural tube defects
OBJECTIVE To ascertain the incidence, and describe the various forms of neural tube defects (NTDs) due to genetic, chromosomal, and syndromic causes. METHODS We carried out a retrospective analysis of data retrieved from the medical records of newborn infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit with NTDs and their mothers spanning 14 years (1996-2009) at the Security Forces Hospital,...
