Phenotypic spectrum of patients with Poretti-Boltshauser syndrome: Patient report of antenatal ventriculomegaly and esophageal atresia
This report confirms previous reports of antenatal ventriculomegaly in PTBHS patients and documents a so far unreported occurrence of esophageal atresia in PTBHS. We additionally gathered phenotype and genotype descriptions of published cases in an effort to better define the spectrum of PTBHS.PMID:36592689 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejmg.2022.104692 (Source: European Journal of Medical Genetics)

Trends in selected birth defects among parents from below poverty line population in Karnataka during 2010 & #8211;2020
DC Nanjunda, S Jyothi Lakshmi, H Rajesh Acharya, Amit Kumar MishraIndian Journal of Public Health 2022 66(4):490-493
The aim of the study is to reveal the common birth defects among parents of newborns belonging to the below poverty line (BPL) category in Karnataka state (South India) by analyzing Suvarna Arogya Suraksha Trust data. In the last 10 years, 3672 kids in BPL families have been born with various birth abnormalities. It is found that 50.3% of newborns have anorectal malformations, 33.1% have hypospadias, 6.0% have diaphragmatic hernia, 5.1% have esophageal atresia, an...

Preexisting neural factors that contribute to dysmotility in esophageal atresia: a systematic review
AbstractEsophageal dysmotility in esophageal atresia (EA) relates to abnormal development of esophageal innervation and musculature and to the esophageal repair. Few studies have investigated the preexisting dysmotility in EA, present prior to surgery. This systematic review aims to summarize the literature on neuronal studies in EA, to understand the causative factors for esophageal dysmotility. We performed a systematic review (PubMed, EMBASE, EBM, CINAHL databases; January 1947 –February 2021) in accordance with PRISMA (PROSPERO number CRD42020171014). Fourteen studies were identified (eleven human, 187 EA patients; t...

Prenatal diagnosis of distal 13q deletion syndrome in a fetus with esophageal atresia: a case report and review of the literature
ConclusionThis case report and the literature reviews supports the previous findings on the pathological roles of haploinsufficiency of theZIC2/ZIC5 in Dandy –Walker malformation and theEFBN2 haploinsufficiency in eye malformation and hearing loss. Furthermore, the possible involvement ofIRS2,COLA1, andCOLA2 in eye malformation were identified. This is the first case of 13q deletion syndrome with esophageal atresia (Gross A), but it may be a symptom of VATER/VACTER association (vertebral defects, anorectal malformations, cardiac defects, tracheoesophageal fistula with or without esophageal atresia, renal malformations,...

Prevalence of mental health problems, associated factors, and health-related quality of life in children with long-gap esophageal atresia in Sweden
Children with long-gap esophageal atresia(LGEA) face a high risk of digestive and respiratory morbidity, but their mental health outcomes have not been investigated. We aimed to identify the prevalence of mental health problems in children with LGEA, associated factors and health-related quality of life(HRQOL). (Source: Journal of Pediatric Surgery)
