We present two phenotypically similar females with Xp duplication who have autism and epilepsy. Case 1 is a 14-year-old Honduran female with autism and medically refractory complex partial, secondarily generalized epilepsy. Case 2 is a 3-year-old Austrian female with autism and medically refractory complex partial epilepsy. Both patients also share features of severe intellectual disability (case 1 has a developmental quotient of 23, case 2 has a developmental quotient of 42) and dysmorphic facial features. Autism was confirmed by thorough clinical evaluations and testing. Case 1 has a karyotype of 46, X, dup(X)(p11.2-p22.33) and a highly skewed X-inactivation pattern (94: 6). Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electroencephalogram (EEG) were abnormal. Case 2 has a 5-megabase duplication of Xp11.22-p11.23 on chromosome microarray analysis. The patient has a random X-inactivation pattern (77:23). Brain MRI was normal, but EEG was abnormal. Both patients have duplications involving the Xp11.22-p11.23 region, indicating that this is an area of interest for future translational autism research.

Summary: TRAPPC4, a protein involved in membrane trafficking, has been linked to a neurodevelopmental condition due to a specific splice variant. This study identified a homozygous variant in TRAPPC4 in multiple families with early-onset neurodegenerative symptoms. The variant causes severe neurological impairments and abnormal RNA splicing, leading to premature stop codon and disease progression.

Summary: In AGHI, an array-based process has been implemented to screen for highly penetrant genetic variants in actionable disease genes. The study demonstrates the necessity for clinical validation of array-identified variants in direct-to-consumer or population testing, especially for diverse populations.

Summary: The Alabama Genomic Health Initiative aims to provide genetic testing for treatment of rare diseases and population screening. Research shows that genome sequencing can identify 20% of likely pathogenic or pathogenic variations in the rare disease cohort, while 1.5% of individuals in the population cohort received positive genotyping results.

Summary: NEDDFL is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by developmental delay, speech delay, microcephaly, and dysmorphic features caused by variants in the BPTF gene. A study described the clinical features in 25 novel individuals with NEDDFL, revealing additional complications such as mild brain abnormalities, seizures, scoliosis, and various ophthalmologic complications. These findings further support the diverse and multi-faceted consequences of haploinsufficiency of BPTF.

Summary: The recent article highlighted the importance of informatics solutions in guiding public health decision-making during the COVID-19 pandemic. Academics in Honduras have established a COVID-19 and Dengue Observatory to combine technological platforms and multidisciplinary research to aid the country in navigating the crisis caused by the pandemic and natural disasters. The application of technology in epidemiology, such as building a digital health surveillance system, has shown the potential to benefit communities in times of crisis.

Summary: Sotos syndrome is characterized by overgrowth and intellectual disability, often caused by pathogenic variants in NSD1. The consistent physical features include facial dysmorphisms, which evolve with age and can become less pronounced in adults. This long-term follow-up study provides important insights for diagnosis and clinical delineation of Sotos syndrome.

Summary: This study examined parents' experiences with genome sequencing (GS) as a first-line diagnostic tool for infants in the NICU. The results showed that GS in infancy is important for reproductive decision making, preparing for the child's care, ending the diagnostic odyssey, and sharing results with care providers. Most parents found the timing of disclosure acceptable, although the NICU environment was overwhelming for many. Parents did not consistently report negative impacts on parent-infant bonding and variable impact on feelings of guilt.

Summary: This study compared inflammatory markers between patients with COVID-19 and those with bacterial sepsis. The results showed that ferritin was the main inflammatory marker for COVID-19, while leukocytes, procalcitonin, and D-dimer were the main markers for sepsis. The therapeutic implications of these differences require further study.
