Toxic maculopathy due to antimalarial drugs is a rare, acquired eye disease, due to long-term exposure to chloroquine (CQ) or hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), characterized by a slowly progressive, usually non-reversible, development of bilateral atrophic bull's-eye maculopathy (progressive loss of central vision acuity, reduced color vision and central scotoma), which in severe cases can spread over the entire fundus, leading to widespread retinal atrophy and visual loss.	Is a	True	Chronic disease	Inferred relationship	Some
Recessive intellectual disability-motor dysfunction-multiple joint contractures syndrome is a rare, genetic, syndromic intellectual disability disorder characterized by severe intellectual disability, progressive, postnatal, multiple joint contractures and severe motor dysfunction. Patients present arrest and regression of motor function and speech acquisition, as well as contractures which begin in lower limbs and slowly progress in an ascending manner to include spine and neck, resulting in individuals presenting a specific fixed position.	Is a	False	Chronic disease	Inferred relationship	Some
A rare, genetic, syndromic intellectual disability characterized by severe intellectual disability, non-inherited, progressive, post-natal microcephaly, hypotonia, hyperkinesia, absence of speech, strabismus, and midline stereotypic hand movements (e.g. hand washing/rubbing). Additional features include developmental delay, seizures and behavioral disturbances, such as self-injury and unexplained crying episodes.	Is a	True	Chronic disease	Inferred relationship	Some
A rare, slowly progressive form of systemic mastocytosis (SM) characterized by gradual accumulation of neoplastic mast cells in the visceral organs. Patients typically present with splenomegaly, hypercellular marrow and, in most cases, urticaria pigmentosa-like skin lesions.	Is a	True	Chronic disease	Inferred relationship	Some

Chronic wound (disorder)	Is a	True	Chronic disease	Inferred relationship	Some
A rare, genetic, macular dystrophy characterized by blurred vision, metamorphopsia and mild visual impairment secondary to a slightly elevated, yellow, egg yolk-like lesion located in the foveal or parafoveal region.	Is a	True	Chronic disease	Inferred relationship	Some
Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) is a genetic macular dystrophy characterized by loss of central visual acuity, metamorphopsia and a decrease in the Arden ratio secondary to an egg yolk-like lesion located in the foveal or parafoveal region.
