Unresponsiveness To Vitamin Therapy In Twins With Early Onset Biotin-Thiamine Responsive Encephalopathy Type 2 Caused By Biallelic Truncating Variant In Slc19a3 Gene, Siddaramappa J. Patil, Minal Kekatpure, Venkatraman Bhat, Harini Sreedaran, Rajiv Aggarwal

Journal of Pediatric Genetics

Biotin-thiamine responsive encephalopathy type 2 (BTBGD) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in SLC19A3 (solute carrier family 19). Among three clinical phenotypes of BTBGD (early infantile onset, classical and adult onset) early infantile form of BTBGD is associated with poor prognosis. Here in we report twins with BTBGD early onset infantile Leigh syndrome phenotype unresponsive to thiamine and biotin therapy, progressive neuroimaging changes and early death. Both twins carried biallelic truncating novel c.307dupG / p.Val103fs*121 variant in SLC19A3 gene and we discuss reasons of unresponsiveness.

Diagnosis And Initial Tratment Of Gorham-Stout’S Disease, Jesús González Cayón, Maria Del Carmen San Basilio Berenguer, Julio César Moreno Alfonso, Santiago De La Puente Pérez, Paloma Triana Junco, Juan Carlos López Gutiérrez

Journal of Pediatric Genetics

The Gorham-Stout’s disease, also known as massive osteolysis or evanescent bone disease; is an extremely rare disease characterized by a proliferation of intraosseous lymphatic channels causing progressive osteolysis. Usually, surgery, sclerotherapy and radiotherapy have been reserved for local and symptomatic control of the disease, while medical treatments have presented variable results that are not entirely satisfactory according to literature. The recent identification of germline-activating somatic mutations in the PIK3CA gene has opened the way to treatment with mTOR inhibitors, being Sirolimus an effective option with a low incidence of serious adverse effects. We present a patient diagnosed with GSD and …

Phenotyping And Provisional Diagnosis Of Mucopolysaccharidoses Based On Machine Learning, Srilatha Kadali, Shaik Mohammad Naushad, Vijaya Lakshmi Bodiga

Journal of Pediatric Genetics

In view of significant overlapping clinical features in mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) subtypes, clinicians face difficulty in differential diagnosis, thus requiring the need for a machine learning-based clinical tool for the provisional diagnosis of MPS subtypes. Out of 520 patients with suspicion of MPS, 296 patients were identified with MPS types. To develop the model, we took 53 clinical symptoms of MPS patients (n=255) into account for differential diagnosis. The diagnosis was based on enzyme testing. Among mucopolysaccharidoses, MPS I was the most prevalent. Different machine learning tools were examined, and classification and regression tree (CART) emerged as the most promising. The …

Long-Term Survival In Lung Cancer With Brain Metastases And Coronary Artery Stenosis: A Case Report, Raghad O. Alharbi, Shahad J. Alshammary, Nasser E. Alotaibi, Ruba M. Aljohani, Bader A. Alotaibi, Ihab F. Suliman

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association

Lung cancer is among the most diagnosed cancers worldwide, and its co-occurrence with coronary heart disease is life-threatening. Osimertinib is the standard treatment for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The addition of pemetrexed and carboplatin increases not only the efficacy but also the cardiotoxicity risk. We report a 59-year-old woman with NSCLC alongside brain, liver, and spleen metastases, who developed cardiovascular events following cancer therapy. With advanced imaging and multidisciplinary intervention, remarkable remission was achieved over two years. Reporting this case contributes to the understanding of its presentation and diagnostic challenges.
