Deficiency of butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase- MedGen UID:
- 90998
- •Concept ID:
- C0342783
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Most infants with short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD) identified through newborn screening programs have remained well, and asymptomatic relatives who meet diagnostic criteria are reported. Thus, SCADD is now viewed as a biochemical phenotype rather than a disease. A broad range of clinical findings was originally reported in those with confirmed SCADD, including severe dysmorphic facial features, feeding difficulties / failure to thrive, metabolic acidosis, ketotic hypoglycemia, lethargy, developmental delay, seizures, hypotonia, dystonia, and myopathy. However, individuals with no symptoms were also reported. In a large series of affected individuals detected on metabolic evaluation for developmental delay, 20% had failure to thrive, feeding difficulties, and hypotonia; 22% had seizures; and 30% had hypotonia without seizures. In contrast, the majority of infants with SCADD have been detected by expanded newborn screening, and the great majority of these infants remain asymptomatic. As with other fatty acid oxidation deficiencies, characteristic biochemical findings of SCADD may be absent except during times of physiologic stress such as fasting and illness. A diagnosis of SCADD based on clinical findings should not preclude additional testing to look for other causes.
Cataract 20 multiple types- MedGen UID:
- 101117
- •Concept ID:
- C0524524
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Mutation in the CRYGS gene has been identified in multiple types of cataract, which have been described as progressive polymorphic anterior, posterior, peripheral cortical, sutural, and lamellar.
Cataract 3 multiple types- MedGen UID:
- 321901
- •Concept ID:
- C1832175
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Mutations in the CRYBB2 gene have been found to cause several types of cataract, which have been described as congenital cerulean, 'blue dot,' Coppock-like, sutural with punctate and cerulean opacities, pulverulent embryonal, pulverulent with cortical opacities, dense posterior star-shaped subcapsular with pulverulent opacities in the cortical and embryonal regions, and dense embryonal.
Before it was known that mutations in the CRYBB2 gene cause several types of cataract, the preferred title of this entry was 'Cataract, Congenital, Cerulean Type 2,' with the symbol CCA2.
Chromosome 1q21.1 deletion syndrome- MedGen UID:
- 393913
- •Concept ID:
- C2675897
- •
- Congenital Abnormality
The 1q21.1 recurrent microdeletion itself does not appear to lead to a clinically recognizable syndrome as some persons with the deletion have no obvious clinical findings and others have variable findings that most commonly include microcephaly (50%), mild intellectual disability (30%), mildly dysmorphic facial features, and eye abnormalities (26%). Other findings can include cardiac defects, genitourinary anomalies, skeletal malformations, and seizures (~15%). Psychiatric and behavioral abnormalities can include autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autistic features, and sleep disturbances.
Cataract 40- MedGen UID:
- 886621
- •Concept ID:
- C4049004
- •
- Congenital Abnormality
Any early-onset non-syndromic cataract in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the NHS gene.
