Clinical Course and Outcome of Prenatally Detected 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome-A Retrospective Analysis

Chiara Paternostro, Stephanie Springer, Gregor Kasprian, Guelen Yerlikaya-Schatten, Theresa Reischer

Summary: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical course and pregnancy outcome of cases with prenatally diagnosed 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (DS) and the role of prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and postmortem examination. Out of the 21 cases included in the study, prenatal MRI provided additional diagnostic information in three cases. Postmortem examination diagnosed most of the craniofacial anomalies, serving as an important quality indicator for prenatal imaging.

A systematic review of the prognostic value of motor abnormalities on clinical outcome in psychosis

Lydia E. Pieters, Niluja Nadesalingam, Sebastian Walther, Peter N. van Harten

Summary: Motor abnormalities, such as neurological soft signs, parkinsonism, and dyskinesia, are associated with worsening symptoms and poor functional outcomes in individuals with or at risk of psychosis. Assessing and detecting motor abnormalities can have significant clinical, prognostic, and scientific importance in the management of psychosis.

Using Technology to Identify Children With Autism Through Motor Abnormalities

Roberta Simeoli, Nicola Milano, Angelo Rega, Davide Marocco

Summary: Autism, a neurodevelopmental disorder, can be more accurately diagnosed by assessing motor patterns. By using smart devices to record children's movements, autism can be identified computationally with high accuracy, confirming that motor abnormalities are a core feature of autism.

A deep learning latent variable model to identify children with autism through motor abnormalities

Nicola Milano, Roberta Simeoli, Angelo Rega, Davide Marocco

Summary: The study proposes an automated Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) detection model using machine learning. By analyzing the latent distribution description of motion features, the model improves ASD detection. The results reveal consistent differences in motion features between children with autism and those with typical development, suggesting the potential use of these features as indicators for diagnosis.

The role of interpersonal synchrony in forming impressions of autistic and non-autistic adults

I. S. Plank, L. S. Traiger, A. M. Nelson, J. C. Koehler, S. F. Lang, R. Tepest, K. Vogeley, A. L. Georgescu, C. M. Falter-Wagner

Summary: When people meet, they quickly form impressions of each other. A study found that first impressions of individuals with autism spectrum condition (ASC) are less favorable compared to non-autistic individuals. The study investigated the influence of interpersonal synchrony on impression formation and found that synchrony of motion energy is one driver of these less favorable impressions of autistic people.

Hearing loss and history of otolaryngological conditions in adults with microdeletion 22q11.2

Emma N. M. M. von Scheibler, Josine C. C. Widdershoven, Denise C. P. B. M. van Barneveld, Nina Schroder, Agnies M. van Eeghen, Therese A. M. J. van Amelsvoort, Erik Boot

Summary: This study reports on hearing loss and otolaryngological conditions in adults with 22q11.2DS. The results suggest that high-frequency hearing loss is common in this population and is associated with older age and a history of chronic otitis media. The study also identified several otolaryngological conditions that may require treatment.

Elderly may benefit more from motor imagery training in gaining muscle strength than young adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Xiao J. Liu, Sha Ge, Alberto Cordova, Zayd Yaghi, Bo Y. Jiang, Guang H. Yue, Wan X. Yao

Summary: The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of mental imagery training (MIT) on enhancing maximum voluntary muscle contraction (MVC) force in healthy young and old adults. The results showed that MIT had a significant effect on enhancing muscle strength compared to no exercise, but was inferior to physical training (PT). Subgroup analysis further indicated that MIT was more effective for older adults and small finger muscles.

Summary: The study revealed that children with ASD and ADHD exhibit impaired motor abilities compared to typically developing children. Most children with ASD or ADHD showed indications of DCD. Specific coordination abilities were associated with the volume of the right medial frontal gyrus in the ASD group, while the total DCDQ score was associated with the volume of the right superior frontal gyrus in the ADHD group.

Motor skills predict adaptive behavior in autistic children and adolescents

Nicholas E. Fears, Stephanie A. Palmer, Haylie L. Miller

Summary: It is well-documented that autistic individuals have lower adaptive behavior scores compared to their intelligence scores, and motor skills may explain the variability in their adaptive behavior. This study found that motor skills, particularly hand coordination, were associated with adaptive behavior in autistic children and adolescents. Further understanding of the impact of motor skills on adaptive behavior is needed to provide effective support.

Summary: Weight change is associated with the risk of metabolic abnormalities. Long-term excessive weight gain is positively associated with an increased risk of metabolic abnormalities in non-overweight/obese individuals, while long-term weight loss is a protective factor for metabolic health in overweight/obese individuals.

Lairson, Solveig Oskarsdottir, Erik Boot, Sixto Garcia-Minaur, Maria Cristina Digilio, Bruno Marino, Beverly Coleman, Julie S. Moldenhauer, Anne S. Bassett, Donna M. McDonald-McGinn

Summary: Early diagnosis of chromosome 22q11.2 microdeletion and its associated deletion syndrome is important. Prenatal diagnostic testing is recommended for parents or children with the microdeletion or suggestive prenatal screening results. Genetic testing using a chromosomal microarray can detect clinically relevant microdeletions. Noninvasive prenatal screening and imaging are available screening options. NIPS has a high detection rate, while prenatal imaging can detect physical features associated with the syndrome.

Psychiatric and neurological manifestations in adults with Smith-Magenis syndrome: A scoping review

Summary: Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a genetic deletion or variant in the RAI1 gene. A comprehensive review of the literature on adults with SMS revealed that many manifestations from childhood persist into adulthood. Adults with SMS commonly experience intellectual disability, autism spectrum and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder features, self-injurious and physical aggressive behaviors, sleep-wake disorders, and seizures. This review provides valuable insights for optimizing management strategies and investigating late-onset psychiatric and neurological comorbidities in SMS.

Summary: This study compared the effects of 17p11.2 deletion and pathogenic RAI1 variants on intellectual and behavioral phenotypes. The results showed that individuals with 17p11.2 deletions had lower IQ scores and more behavioral problems, while those with RAI1 variants had higher levels of internalizing problems. These findings may contribute to personalized management strategies for individuals with Smith-Magenis syndrome.
