Cardiomyopathy III: Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy01:29

Cardiomyopathy III: Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

126
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or HCM, is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by asymmetric left ventricular hypertrophy without ventricular dilation. It is more common in men and is typically diagnosed in young, athletic adults.EtiologyHCM is primarily genetic and is caused by mutations in genes encoding sarcomeric proteins. Researchers have identified over 1400 mutations across at least 11 different genes. Among these, the most frequently occurring mutations are found in the...

Pleiotropy01:33

Pleiotropy

42.0K
Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...

Autism Spectrum Disorder01:19

Autism Spectrum Disorder

549
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Pulmonary Hypertension: Classification and Pathogenesis

400
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe health condition in which the mean pulmonary arterial pressure increases to 25 mmHg or more, even when the body is at rest. This high pressure in the blood vessels that transport blood from the heart to the lungs can cause various symptoms, including shortness of breath, can lead to right heart failure, and significantly affect the overall quality of life.
There are various classifications for PH, each relating to different underlying causes and also...

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

531
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation,...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Genetics
  • Audiology

Background:

  • Harboyan syndrome is a rare inherited condition.
  • It presents with congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy and sensorineural hearing loss.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing this syndrome.

Observation:

  • A 16-year-old female patient with Harboyan syndrome was evaluated.
  • She had undergone surgical correction for bilateral corneal opacities and used a hearing aid for sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL).
  • Physical examination and lab tests excluded other potential diagnoses.

Findings:

  • The patient showed significant symptom resolution after treatment.
  • Surgical correction of corneal opacities and hearing aid use were key interventions.
  • The diagnosis of Harboyan syndrome was confirmed through clinical and laboratory findings.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing Harboyan syndrome.
  • Successful treatment can lead to improved quality of life for affected individuals.
  • Further research into the genetic basis and therapeutic strategies for Harboyan syndrome is warranted.
