Genetic Evaluation of Short Stature Laurie H ACMG PRACTICE GUIDELINES ACMG practice guideline: Genetic evaluation of short stature Laurie H. Seaver, MD1,2, and Mira Irons, MD3, on behalf of the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) Professional Practice and Guidelines Committee Disclaimer: This guideline is designed primarily as an educational resource for health care providers to help them provide quality medical genetic services. Adherence to this guideline does not necessarily assure a successful medical outcome. This guideline should not be considered inclusive of all proper procedures and tests or exclusive of other procedures and tests that are reasonably directed to obtaining the same results. In determining the propriety of any specific procedure or test, the geneticist should apply his or her own professional judgment to the specific clinical circumstances presented by the individual patient or specimen. It may be prudent, however, to document in the patient’s record the rationale for any significant deviation from this guideline.

Literature review current through: Mar 2016. | This topic last updated: Aug 13, 2015. INTRODUCTION — Short stature is a term applied to a child whose height is 2 standard deviations (SD) or more below the mean for children of that sex and chronologic age (and ideally of the same racial-ethnic group). This corresponds to a height that is below the 2.3rd percentile. Short stature may be either a variant of normal growth or caused by a disease. The most common causes of short stature beyond the first year or two of life are familial (genetic) short stature and delayed (constitutional) growth, which are normal non-pathologic variants of growth. The goal of the evaluation of a child with short stature is to identify the subset of children with pathologic causes (such as Turner syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease or other underlying systemic disease, or growth hormone deficiency). The evaluation also assesses the severity of the short stature and likely growth trajectory, to facilitate decisions about intervention, if appropriate. This topic will review the main causes of short stature. The diagnostic approach to children with short stature is discussed separately. (See "Diagnostic approach to children and adolescents with short stature".) NORMAL VARIANTS OF GROWTH Familial short stature — Familial or genetic short stature is most often a normal variant, termed familial or genetic short stature (figure 1).

Khan 1,* 1 Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, Wilmington, DE 19803, USA; [email protected] (B.C.); [email protected] (S.T.) 2 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +302-298-7335; Fax: +302-651-6888 Abstract: Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of lysosomal storage disorders caused by a lysosomal enzyme deficiency or malfunction, which leads to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in tissues and organs. If not treated at an early stage, patients have various health problems, affecting their quality of life and life-span. Two therapeutic options for MPS are widely used in practice: enzyme replacement therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. However, early diagnosis of MPS is crucial, as treatment may be too late to reverse or ameliorate the disease progress. It has been noted that the prevalence of MPS and each subtype varies based on geographic regions and/or ethnic background. Each type of MPS is caused by a wide range of the mutational spectrum, mainly missense mutations. Some mutations were derived from the common founder effect. In the previous study, Khan et al. 2018 have reported the epidemiology of MPS from 22 countries and 16 regions. In this study, we aimed to update the prevalence of MPS across the world. We have collected and investigated 189 publications related to the prevalence of MPS via PubMed as of December 2020. In total, data from 33 countries and 23 regions were compiled and analyzed.

Tissue biopsy is highly invasive, limited by sampling frequency and incompletely representative of intra-tumor heterogeneity. Extracellular vesicle-based liquid biopsy provides a minimally invasive alternative to diagnose and monitor tumor-specific molecular aberrations in patient biofluids. Here, we used targeted RNA sequencing to screen GBM tissue and the matched plasma of patients (n = 9) for RNA fusion transcripts. We identified two novel fusion transcripts in GBM tissue and five novel fusions in the matched plasma of GBM patients. The fusion transcripts FGFR3-TACC3 and VTI1A-TCF7L2 were detected in both tissue and matched plasma.

CHARGE association denotes the non-random occurrence of ocular coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, retarded growth and development, genital hypoplasia, ear anomalies and deafness (OMIM #214800). Almost all patients with CHARGE association are sporadic and its cause was unknown. We and others hypothesized that CHARGE association is due to a genomic microdeletion or to a mutation in a gene affecting early embryonic development. In this study array- based comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) was used to screen patients with CHARGE association for submicroscopic DNA copy number alterations. De novo overlapping microdeletions in 8q12 were identified in two patients on a genome-wide 1 Mb resolution BAC array. A 2.3 Mb region of deletion overlap was defined using a tiling resolution chromosome 8 microarray. Sequence analysis of genes residing within this critical region revealed mutations in the CHD7 gene in 10 of the 17 CHARGE patients without microdeletions, including 7 heterozygous stop-codon mutations.

Abstract: Congenital upper limb anomalies (CULA) are a common birth defect and a significant portion of complicated syndromic anomalies have upper limb involvement. Mostly the mortality of babies with CULA can be attributed to associated anomalies. The cause of the majority of syndromic CULA was unknown until recently. Advances in genetic and genomic technologies have unraveled the genetic basis of many syndromes- associated CULA, while at the same time highlighting the extreme heterogeneity in CULA genetics. Discoveries regarding biological pathways and syndromic CULA provide insights into the limb development and bring a better understanding of the pathogenesis of CULA.
