Brain dysmorphology in individuals with severe prenatal alcohol exposure.
Our previous studies revealed abnormalities on structural MRI (sMRI) in small groups of children exposed to alcohol prenatally. Microcephaly, disproportionately reduced basal ganglia volume, and abnormalities of the cerebellar vermis and corpus callosum were demonstrated. The present study used sMRI to examine in detail the regional pattern of brain hypoplasia resulting from prenatal exposure t...
متن کاملDysmorphology
This volume is a report of a meeting sponsored by the March of Dimes-Birth Defects Foundation at the University of California, San Diego, in June of 1981. It consists of a series of original papers which were presented at the conference and is divided into two sections: one on syndromes and the second on cytogenetics. A large variety of interesting papers on the subject of dysmorphology discuss...
متن کاملMolecular approaches to dysmorphology.
The biochemical and physiological defects underlying human dysmorphic syndromes can now be approached using techniques of molecular biology. The genetic component of the causation of the dysmorphology can be studied in isolation from the environmental component by using large, rare families which exhibit the same phenotype as more complex multifactorial disorders, but inherit the mutation in a ...
متن کاملAdditional patient outcomes and pathways in evaluations of testing.
Before medical tests are introduced into practice, they should be properly evaluated. Randomized trials and other comprehensive evaluations of tests and test strategies can best be designed based on an understanding of how tests can benefit or harm patients. Tests primarily affect patients' health by guiding clinical decision making and downstream management, such as the decision to order more ...
متن کاملUse of computers in dysmorphology.
As a consequence of the increasing power and decreasing cost of digital computers, dysmorphologists have begun to explore a wide variety of computerised applications in clinical genetics. Of considerable interest are developments in the areas of syndrome databases, expert systems, literature searches, image processing, and pattern recognition. Each of these areas is reviewed from the perspectiv...
