Abstract:
We report the case of a 14 years and 8 months girl, who is the first child of nonconsanguineous parents, with short stature, obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, multiple facial lentigines, high and wide forehead, downslanting palpebral fissures, low-set ears, short neck, and pectus excavatum; all features suggestive of Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML). In addition, the patient exhibited craniosynostosis. Molecular analysis of rats sarcoma (RAS)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway genes with high-resolution melting curve analysis followed by sequencing showed a RAF1 amino acid substitution of valine to glycine at position 263 (p.V263G). The present report provides clinical data regarding the first association of a RAF1 variant and craniosynostosis in a patient with clinical diagnosis of NSML.

Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...
