A neurological disorder with characteristics of moderate to severe intellectual disability that is evident in early childhood. Early manifestations include delayed development of speech and motor skills, hypotonia, developmental regression, recurrent epilepsy, hyperactivity and autism spectrum disorder. Caused by mutations in the SYNGAP1 gene preventing the production of functional SynGAP protein from one copy of the gene which results in reduced protein activity in cells. May be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner or as a new mutation in the gene. Concept non-current
A neuromuscular disease with characteristics of progressive symmetric muscle weakness of anterior upper and posterior lower limbs. It has been described in several members of an Australian and an Italian family. The disease usually manifests during the third decade of life with thenar muscle weakness resulting in reduced grip strength. The disease is slowly progressive and generally proceeds with calf muscle weakness appearing during the fourth decade and proximal muscles becoming perceptibly affected in the fifth decade. The disease is due to mutations on the actin-binding domain of the FLNC gene that encodes filamin C, a muscle specific filamin that is also associated with myofibrillar myopathy when mutations affect other parts of the protein. The disease mechanism seems to be linked to an increased actin-binding affinity of filamin C. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A perinatally lethal skeletal dysplasia with manifestations of severe short-limbed dwarfism, joint dislocations, clubfeet along with distinctive facies and radiographic findings. Affected neonates are stillborn or die rapidly after birth. Craniofacial dysmorphism has characteristics of prominent forehead, hypertelorism, a depressed nasal bridge with a grooved tip, micrognathia and frequently a cleft palate. There is a continuum with overlapping clinical findings between atelosteogenesis I, atelosteogenesis III and boomerang dysplasia. This disease results from heterozygous mutations in exons 2-5 and 27-33 of the gene encoding filamin B (FLNB) located to 3p14. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A permanent thyroid deficiency that is present from birth, characterised by low levels of thyroid hormones caused by disorders in the development or function of the pituitary. The clinical manifestations can be subtle, probably as a result of trans-placental passage of some maternal thyroid hormone or due to the fact that many infants have some thyroid production of their own. Goitre is always absent. Slow linear growth and developmental delay are usually apparent by 4-6 months of age. Without treatment hypothyroidism results in severe intellectual deficit and short stature. The hypothyroidism is caused by mutations in genes regulating pituitary gland development including HESX1, LHX3, LHX4, POU1F1 and PROP1 (3p21.2-p21.1, 9q34.3, 1q25, 3p11 and 5q).

Slight cerebellar signs (left-sided intention tremor, balance and gait impairment) are also noted. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows bilateral hyperintense signals in the thalamus, butterfly-like lesions in the pons and lesions in the occipital region, whereas nerve conduction studies of the lower extremities shows a predominantly motor and slight sensory neuropathy. There is evidence this disease is caused by homozygous mutation in the SCP2 gene on chromosome 1p32. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A phenotype of frontonasal dysplasia associated with total alopecia and hypogonadism. Four cases have been described in two families. The frontonasal dysplasia includes coronal craniosynostosis, large skull defect with aplasia of ethmoid and nasal bones, hypertelorism, severely depressed nasal bridge and bifid nasal tip. Affected individuals have mild to moderate intellectual deficit. A homozygous nonsense mutation in the human aristaless-like 4 (ALX4, 11p11.2) gene was identified in both families. The condition is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

It encodes an enzyme essential for the repression of transcriptional activity in numerous postmitotic cells. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A potentially fatal neurological disease with characteristics of neuropathological lesions principally involving the brainstem, thalamus and putamen. It has been described in 11 members of one family. Onset occurs during early childhood, typically a few days after a febrile illness. Manifestations include vomiting, seizures, spasticity, language regression, rigidity and abnormal posturing of the head. Residual neurologic impairment (muscle weakness, speech disturbance, intellectual deficit and mood disorders) persists in some patients. The disease is chronic in one out of two cases.

A primary bone dysplasia with characteristics of height that is 2 standard deviations below the corresponding mean height for a given age, sex and population group, in the absence of obvious skeletal abnormalities and other diseases and with normal developmental milestones. Patients present normal bone age with normal limbs, shortening of the extremities (significantly lower extremities-trunk and sitting height-to-height ratios), normal hGH values, normal karyotype, and Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis-like radiological signs. Mesomelic disproportions and Madelung deformity are not apparent at a young age but may develop later in life or never. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A primary bone dysplasia with characteristics of premature degenerative arthropathy of the hip. The disease presents with hip joint discomfort/pain and gait disturbances that usually develops in childhood and that progresses to severe functional disability and limited mobility by early adulthood. Involvement of the vertebral bodies and other joints is minimal, height is not significantly reduced and general health is unimpaired. Radiographically, the femoral heads are flattened and irregular and degenerative osteoarthritis develops in the hip joints, as evidenced by the presence of periarticular cysts, sclerosis and joint space narrowing. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A primary glomerular disease with characteristics of proteinuria, type IV renal tubular acidosis, microscopic haematuria and hypertension that may lead to end-stage renal failure in the second to sixth decade of life. Fibronectin glomerulopathy may present at different ages, although mostly in adolescence or early adulthood, with typical features of a nephrotic syndrome including hypertension. Clustering of the disease within families indicates a genetic origin. In 40% of families, the disease is caused by heterozygous mutations in the FN1 gene (2q34) encoding fibronectin. Whole-genome linkage analysis in a large pedigree showed another disease locus on 1q32, however no specific candidate genes has been identified so far. Segregation with disease appearance in successive generations is consistent with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance with age-related penetrance. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

A primary headache disorder with characteristics of unilateral trigeminal pain that occurs in association with ipsilateral cranial autonomic symptoms (conjunctival injection and tearing). The disease manifests with strictly unilateral pain attacks of moderate-to-severe intensity. The typical patient may have 50 to 100 short attacks a day, lasting for 1 to 5 minutes. The attacks predominate during the daytime. Prominent, ipsilateral conjunctival injection and lacrimation regularly accompany the attacks. Trauma, arteriovenous malformations and pituitary adenoma may have a causative role. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A primary immunodeficiency characterised by neutrophilia with severe neutrophil dysfunction, leucocytosis, a predisposition to bacterial infections and poor wound healing, including an absence of pus in infected areas. The disease is due to a point dominant negative mutation in the RAC2 gene causing decreased Rac2 protein expression and a defect in a signalling pathway controlling shape change/motility of neutrophils as well as assembly and activation of NADPH oxidase. The mode of transmission is unknown. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

A primary immunodeficiency with characteristics of increased susceptibility to pyogenic bacterial infections, including invasive pneumococcal, invasive staphylococcal and pseudomonas disease. Only 24 cases have been reported. The disease presents in childhood with recurrent, life-threatening, pyogenic bacterial infections. This predisposition to life-threatening infections seems transient and lasts during the first 10 years of life in the cases reported so far. Myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88) deficiency results from mutations in the MYD88 gene (3p22-3p21.3) which generally abolishes the cytokine responses of the blood cells. Transmission is autosomal recessive. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
