FGF12 duplications are rarely reported, but it was suggested that those might have a similar gain-of-function effect and lead to a more or less comparable phenotype. A favorable response to the sodium blocker phenytoin was reported in several cases, both in patients with an intragenic mutation and in patients with a duplication of FGF12. We report three individuals from two families with FGF12 duplications. The duplications are flanked and probably mediated by two long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs). The duplication cases show phenotypic overlap with the cases with intragenic mutations. Though the onset of epilepsy might be later, after the onset of seizures both groups show developmental stagnation and regression in several cases. This illustrates and further confirms that chromosomal FGF12 duplications and intragenic gain-of-function mutations yield overlapping phenotypes.]]> Wed 26 Oct 2022 19:18:45 AEDT ]]> Disability and madness in colonial asylum records in Australia and New Zealand https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35585 Wed 24 May 2023 12:08:33 AEST ]]> The ARID1B spectrum in 143 patients: from nonsyndromic intellectual disability to Coffin–Siris syndrome https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:56005 Wed 17 Jul 2024 13:38:11 AEST ]]> IQSEC2 mutation update and review of the female-specific phenotype spectrum including intellectual disability and epilepsy https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55998 Wed 17 Jul 2024 13:31:13 AEST ]]> Depression and anxiety symptoms during the transition to early adulthood for people with intellectual disabilities https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22010 Wed 14 Aug 2024 15:58:54 AEST ]]> Teacher professional development and learning to support students with intellectual disability and challenging behaviour: a study in special education settings in Vietnam https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35839 Wed 11 Dec 2019 09:39:28 AEDT ]]> Teaching medical students about children with disabilities in a rural setting in a school https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9934 Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:37:09 AEST ]]> Computer face-matching technology using two-dimensional photographs accurately matches the facial gestalt of unrelated individuals with the same syndromic form of intellectual disability https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31227 Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:09:18 AEST ]]> Relationships, sexuality and parenting: the experience of five young women with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS): an interpretative phenomenological study https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:13433 Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:01:56 AEST ]]> A non-coding variant in the 5ʹ UTR of DLG3 attenuates protein translation to cause non-syndromic intellectual disability https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42920 Wed 07 Sep 2022 13:13:35 AEST ]]> Validation of the choking risk assessment and pneumonia risk assessment for adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disability (IDD) https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34063 Wed 06 Apr 2022 14:02:02 AEST ]]> Designing the Food and Lifestyle Information Program (FLIP) culinary nutrition intervention for adults with mild-to-moderate intellectual disability https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:56303 Wed 04 Sep 2024 11:50:52 AEST ]]> Different types of disease-causing noncoding variants revealed by genomic and gene expression analyses in families with X-linked intellectual disability https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49050 Wed 03 May 2023 15:40:01 AEST ]]> Variance of IQ is partially dependent on deletion type among 1,427 22q11.2 deletion syndrome subjects https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42245 Tue 21 Mar 2023 19:04:35 AEDT ]]> Outcomes of Teacher Professional Development and Learning in Addressing Challenging Behaivour in Vietnamese Students with Intellectual Disability: A Pilot Study https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40885 Tue 19 Jul 2022 14:59:14 AEST ]]> Another case of nuclear speckleopathy due to a novel NKAP pathogenic variant https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55161 Tue 16 Apr 2024 15:43:27 AEST ]]> A cryptic microdeletion del(12)(p11.21p11.23) within an unbalanced translocation t(7;12)(q21.13;q23.1) implicates new candidate loci for intellectual disability and Kallmann syndrome https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53025 Tue 14 Nov 2023 14:30:04 AEDT ]]> Formulation of stimuli sets and evaluation of facial emotion processing in typically developing individuals and in the clinical populations of intellectual disability, autistic disorder, and asperger's disorder https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22495 Thu 22 Sep 2016 11:23:42 AEST ]]> Could I, should I?

In this study, we describe six female probands, from five unrelated families, with five novel heterozygous variants in DDX3X, and the identification of potential germline mosaicism. Consistent features between this cohort and previously described cases include developmental delay or intellectual disability, growth disturbance and movement disorder. Common facial dysmorphism within the cohort include short palpebral fissures, micrognathia, bulbous nasal tip, protruding ears, high arched palate, thin upper vermillion and smooth philtrum. Novel clinical features identified from this cohort include facial dysmorphisms, perinatal complications, valgus feet deformity, lipoatrophy, dystonic episodes, and cutaneous mastocytosis. This case series attempts to expand the phenotype of the DDX3X syndrome; however, it remains heterogeneous. Description of further cases is required to more accurately identify the significance of novel phenotypes within this cohort.]]> Thu 04 Aug 2022 14:36:40 AEST ]]> Shuffling the deckchairs: multi-agency working and the continuing lack of identification of people with vision impairments https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4519 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:12:58 AEDT ]]> Intellectual disabilities https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8673 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:36:10 AEDT ]]> Engagement in retirement: an evaluation of the effect of Active Mentoring on engagement of older adults with intellectual disability in mainstream community groups https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16041 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:22:56 AEDT ]]> CASK mutations are frequent in males and cause X-linked nystagmus and variable XLMR phenotypes https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10278 T) in two small families with nystagmus and MR. Detailed clinical examinations of all six families, including an ophthalmological review in four families, were undertaken to further characterise the phenotype. We report on the clinical features of 24 individuals, mostly male, from six families with CASK mutations. The phenotype was variable, ranging from non-syndromic mild MR to severe MR associated with microcephaly and dysmorphic facial features. Carrier females were variably affected. Congenital nystagmus was found in members of four of the families. Our findings reinforce the CASK gene as a relatively frequent cause of XLMR in females and males. We further define the phenotypic spectrum and demonstrate that affected males with missense mutations or in-frame deletions in CASK are frequently associated with congenital nystagmus and XLMR, a striking feature not previously reported.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:09:09 AEDT ]]> Views of Chinese parents and transition teachers on school-to-work transition services for adolescents with intellectual disability: a qualitative study https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16892 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:00:47 AEDT ]]> Validating Kohler's Taxonomy of Transition Programming for adolescents with intellectual disability in the Chinese context https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29695 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:38:48 AEDT ]]> FOXP1 mutations cause intellectual disability and a recognizable phenotype https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28674 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:37:10 AEDT ]]> Social cognition dysfunction in adolescents with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (velo-cardio-facial syndrome): relationship with executive functioning and social competence/functioning https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27451 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:32:46 AEDT ]]> Occupational engagement and adults with intellectual disabilities https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24337 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:16:38 AEDT ]]> How much does intellectual disability really cost?

To link CNOT1 dysfunction to the neurodevelopmental phenotype observed, we generated variant-specific Drosophila models, which showed learning and memory defects upon CNOT1 knockdown. Introduction of human wild-type CNOT1 was able to rescue this phenotype, whereas mutants could not or only partially, supporting our hypothesis that CNOT1 impairment results in neurodevelopmental delay. Furthermore, the genetic interaction with autism-spectrum genes, such as ASH1L, DYRK1A, MED13, and SHANK3, was impaired in our Drosophila models. Molecular characterization of CNOT1 variants revealed normal CNOT1 expression levels, with both mutant and wild-type alleles expressed at similar levels. Analysis of protein-protein interactions with other members indicated that the CCR4-NOT complex remained intact. An integrated omics approach of patient-derived genomics and transcriptomics data suggested only minimal effects on endonucleolytic nonsense-mediated mRNA decay components, suggesting that de novo CNOT1 variants are likely haploinsufficient hypomorph or neomorph, rather than dominant negative. In summary, we provide strong evidence that de novo CNOT1 variants cause neurodevelopmental delay with a wide range of additional co-morbidities. Whereas the underlying pathophysiological mechanism warrants further analysis, our data demonstrate an essential and central role of the CCR4-NOT complex in human brain development.]]> Fri 06 May 2022 12:37:33 AEST ]]> Expanding the phenotype of intellectual disability caused by HIVEP2 variants https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45695 Fri 04 Nov 2022 10:01:23 AEDT ]]> Psychological therapies for anxiety in autistic individuals with co-occurring intellectual developmental disorder: A systematic review https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49824 Fri 02 Jun 2023 16:31:54 AEST ]]>
