Abstract
Bone disorders are among the most uncommon causes of stroke, but they should be considered as stroke cause in particular clinical scenarios. On the other hand, osteoporosis/osteopenia and increased fracture risk are well documented post stroke complications. The relationship between stroke and bone health is complex. The current facts suggest that these two conditions share same risk factors, but also are risk factors for each other. However, the evidence shows more clear effect of stroke on the bone health, than in the opposite direction. This extensive review is aiming to fill the huge gap of evidence about this topic, and since bone pathology is extremely rare cause of cerebrovascular accident, although a complex connection between these two conditions definitely exists.

Abstract
Schimke immunoosseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a multisystemic condition characterized by early arteriosclerosis and progressive renal insufficiency, among other features. Many SIOD patients have severe, migraine-like headaches, transient neurologic attacks, or cerebral ischemic events. Cerebral events could be exacerbated or precipitated by hypertension, and it is unclear how these are related to arteriosclerotic changes as dyslipidemia is also a feature of SIOD. The correlation between hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular risk in SIOD is unclear. Also, the etiology and management of headaches is not well characterized. Here we report our clinical observations in the management of SIOD in a patient who was diagnosed in school age despite early signs and symptoms. We describe biallelic variants, including a previously unreported c.1931G>A (p.Arg644Gln) variant in SMARCAL1. We specifically investigated whether migraine-like headaches and progressive nephropathy may be related to blood pressure dysregulation. We found a correlation between tighter blood pressure regulation using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and a subjective decrease in headache symptoms. We discuss blood pressure medication management in SIOD. We also characterize dyslipidemia relative to atherosclerosis risks and provide new management strategies to consider for optimizing care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia is a rare autosomal recessive disease resulting from biallelic SMARCAL1 mutations. It presents in early childhood and is characterized by short stature, nephropathy, and immunodeficiency. Approximately 50% of those affected have neurological complications including migraines, transient ischemic attacks, and strokes. METHODS We present a six-year-old boy with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia without evidence of atherosclerosis with recurrent episodes of severe headache, fluctuating hemiparesis, and aphasia. RESULTS Magnetic resonance imaging and angiography were normal during the initial episode; multiple areas of reversible restricted diffusion with decreased perfusion and arterial stenosis were seen with subsequent attacks. CONCLUSIONS This constellation of symptoms and imaging findings is suggestive of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome, which we propose as a mechanism for the transient ischemic attacks and infarcts seen in some patients with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia, as opposed to accelerated atherosclerosis alone. This new insight may provide a basis for novel preventative therapy in this rare disorder.

Abstract
Genetic skeletal disorders (GSDs) are a heterogeneous group characterized by an intrinsic abnormality in growth and (re-)modeling of cartilage and bone. A large subgroup of GSDs has additional involvement of other structures/organs beside the skeleton, such as the central nervous system (CNS). CNS abnormalities have an important role in long-term prognosis of children with GSDs and should consequently not be missed. Sensitive and specific identification of CNS lesions while evaluating a child with a GSD requires a detailed knowledge of the possible associated CNS abnormalities. Here, we provide a pattern-recognition approach for neuroimaging findings in GSDs guided by the obvious skeletal manifestations of GSD. In particular, we summarize which CNS findings should be ruled out with each GSD. The diseases (n = 180) are classified based on the skeletal involvement (1. abnormal metaphysis or epiphysis, 2. abnormal size/number of bones, 3. abnormal shape of bones and joints, and 4. abnormal dynamic or structural changes). For each disease, skeletal involvement was defined in accordance with Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man. Morphological CNS involvement has been described based on extensive literature search. Selected examples will be shown based on prevalence of the diseases and significance of the CNS involvement. CNS involvement is common in GSDs. A wide spectrum of morphological abnormalities is associated with GSDs. Early diagnosis of CNS involvement is important in the management of children with GSDs. This pattern-recognition approach aims to assist and guide physicians in the diagnostic work-up of CNS involvement in children with GSDs and their management.

Abstract
In recent years, increasing numbers of patients with primary immune deficiency (PID) are being recognized as also suffering from cardiovascular system (CVS) abnormalities. These CVS defects might be explained by infectious or autoimmune etiologies, as well as by the role of specific genes and the immune system in the development and function of CVS tissues. Here, we provide the first comprehensive review of the clinical, potentially pathogenic mechanisms, and the management of PID, as well as the associated immune and CVS defects. In addition to some well-known associations of PID with CVS abnormalities, such as DiGeorge syndrome and CHARGE anomaly, we describe the cardiac defects associated with Omenn syndrome, calcium channel deficiencies, DNA repair defects, common variable immunodeficiency, Roifman syndrome, various neutrophil/macrophage defects, FADD deficiency, and HOIL1 deficiency. Moreover, we detail the vascular abnormalities recognized in chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, chronic granulomatous disease, Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome, Schimke immuno-osseus dysplasia, hyper-IgE syndrome, MonoMAC syndrome, and X-linked lymphoproliferative disease. In conclusion, the expanding spectrum of PID requires increased alertness to the possibility of CVS involvement as an important contributor to the diagnosis and management of these patients.

Abstract
Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, episodic lymphopenia, renal failure, and cerebrovascular disease secondary to arteriosclerosis and myointimal hyperplasia. In this paper the authors report the first known application of internal carotid artery (ICA) surgical revascularization to relieve a high-grade focal stenosis of the ICA in a pediatric patient, a 6-year-old boy with SIOD. The clinical presentation, imaging features, operative technique, and postoperative course are described and the molecular genetics, pathophysiology, and treatment considerations in SIOD are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arteriosclerosis and emphysema develop in individuals with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD), a multisystem disorder caused by biallelic mutations in SMARCAL1 (SWI/SNF-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a-like 1). However, the mechanism by which the vascular and pulmonary disease arises in SIOD remains unknown. METHODS We reviewed the records of 65 patients with SMARCAL1 mutations. Molecular and immunohistochemical analyses were conducted on autopsy tissue from 4 SIOD patients. RESULTS Thirty-two of 63 patients had signs of arteriosclerosis and 3 of 51 had signs of emphysema. The arteriosclerosis was characterized by intimal and medial hyperplasia, smooth muscle cell hyperplasia and fragmented and disorganized elastin fibers, and the pulmonary disease was characterized by panlobular enlargement of air spaces. Consistent with a cell autonomous disorder, SMARCAL1 was expressed in arterial and lung tissue, and both the aorta and lung of SIOD patients had reduced expression of elastin and alterations in the expression of regulators of elastin gene expression. CONCLUSIONS This first comprehensive study of the vascular and pulmonary complications of SIOD shows that these commonly cause morbidity and mortality and might arise from impaired elastogenesis. Additionally, the effect of SMARCAL1 deficiency on elastin expression provides a model for understanding other features of SIOD.

Abstract
A mother and daughter presented with a rare combination of moyamoya disease and Graves' disease. A 19-year-old woman experienced numbness in her right hand due to cerebral infarction during therapy for Graves' disease. Cerebral angiography demonstrated stenoses of the bilateral internal carotid arteries and net-like abnormal collateral vessels indicative of moyamoya disease. Her 52-year-old mother with a history of Graves' disease presented with left hemiparesis due to intracerebral hemorrhage; she recovered after hematoma evacuation. Postoperative angiography demonstrated stenoses of the bilateral internal carotid arteries and net-like abnormal collateral vessels indicative of moyamoya disease. Another otherwise healthy daughter manifested slight stenosis of the left internal carotid artery. After cerebral revascularization surgery the patients were able to return to their normal daily lives. These familial cases of moyamoya disease and Graves' disease indicate hereditary involvement in both diseases.

Abstract
Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (OMIM 242900) is an uncommon autosomal-recessive multisystem disease caused by mutations in SMARCAL1 (swi/snf-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a-like 1), a gene encoding a putative chromatin remodeling protein. Neurologic manifestations identified to date relate to enhanced atherosclerosis and cerebrovascular disease. Based on a clinical survey, we determined that half of Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia patients have a small head circumference, and 15% have social, language, motor, or cognitive abnormalities. Postmortem examination of 2 Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia patients showed low brain weights and subtle brain histologic abnormalities suggestive of perturbed neuron-glial migration such as heterotopia, irregular cortical thickness, incomplete gyral formation, and poor definition of cortical layers. We found that SMARCAL1 is highly expressed in the developing and adult mouse and human brain, including neural precursors and neuronal lineage cells. These observations suggest that SMARCAL1 deficiency may influence brain development and function in addition to its previously recognized effect on cerebral circulation.

Abstract
Schimke-immuno-osseous dysplasia is an autosomal-recessive multisystem disorder with the prominent clinical features disproportionate growth failure, progressive renal failure, and T-cell immunodeficiency. Neurological symptoms caused by transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and strokes are a typical clinical finding in severe SIOD. Cerebral ischemia and white matter changes, moyamoya phenomena and absence of a cerebellar hemisphere and partial absence of the cerebellar vermis have been described in patients with severe SIOD. We present three SIOD patients with atrophy of the caudal parts of the cerebellar vermis (posterior lobule) and of the cerebellar hemispheres. We hypothesize that these cerebellar abnormalities are a continuum of the ongoing vascular disease in severe SIOD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a fatal autosomal recessive disorder caused by loss-of-function mutations in swi/snf-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a-like 1 (SMARCAL1). METHODS Analysis of detailed autopsies to correlate clinical and pathological findings in two men severely affected with SIOD. RESULTS As predicted by the clinical course, T cell deficiency in peripheral lymphoid organs, defective chondrogenesis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, cerebral ischaemic lesions and premature atherosclerosis were identified. Clinically unexpected findings included a paucity of B cells in the peripheral lymphoid organs, emperipolesis-like (penetration of one cell by another) abnormalities in the adenohypophysis, fatty infiltration of the cardiac right ventricular wall, pulmonary emphysema, testicular hypoplasia with atrophy and azospermia, and clustering of small cerebral vessels. CONCLUSIONS A regulatory role for the SMARCAL1 protein in the proliferation of chondrocytes, lymphocytes and spermatozoa, as well as in the development or maintenance of cardiomyocytes and in vascular homoeostasis, is suggested. Additional clinical management guidelines are recommended as this study has shown that patients with SIOD may be at risk of pulmonary hypertension, combined immunodeficiency, subcortical ischaemic dementia and cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
Schimke-immunoosseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a multisystemic disorder caused by a mutation of a putative chromatin remodelling protein. Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia with disproportionate growth deficiency, nephrotic syndrome with focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis, defective cellular immunity, and transient ischemic attacks are major clinical features in the severe form of SIOD. In the present study we tested the hypothesis that mitochondrial dysfunction may be an underlying pathophysiologic mechanism in this multisystemic disease. Mitochondrial parameters were studied in blood (lactate, pyruvate, ketone bodies, alanine) and in urine (organic acids) of four patients with the severe form of SIOD. Activities of respiratory chain enzymes were measured spectrophotometrically in fibroblasts of two of these patients. In patients with the severe form of SIOD normal concentrations of lactate as well as normal lactate/pyruvate- and ketone-body ratios were found in plasma. Alanine, the long-term parameter for lactate, was normal as well; metabolites of the citrate cycle were not found in the urine. Activities of respiratory chain enzymes I-V were not significantly reduced in fibroblasts from two patients with the severe form of SIOD. There was no evidence for mitochondrial dysfunction in SIOD. The underlying pathophysiology of SIOD remains unclear.

Abstract
Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is characterized by spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, nephropathy, and T-cell deficiency. SIOD is caused by mutations in the putative chromatin remodeling protein SMARCAL1. We report an 8-year-old boy with SIOD and recurrent, severe, refractory migraine-like headaches. Through a retrospective questionnaire-based study, we found that refractory and severely disabling migraine-like headaches occur in nearly half of SIOD patients. We have also found that the vasodilator minoxidil provided symptomatic relief for one patient. We hypothesize that these headaches may arise from an intrinsic vascular, neuroimmune, or neurovascular defect resulting from loss of SMARCAL1 function.

Abstract
Schimke-immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a multisystem disorder with the following consistent clinical features: spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia with disproportional growth deficiency, nephrotic syndrome with focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis, and defective cellular immunity. Transitory ischemic attacks due to vaso-occlusive processes are complications in some patients with severe SIOD. Recently, mutations of SMARCAL1, which encodes a putative chromatin remodelling protein, have been associated with SIOD. Patients with milder disease were observed to harbor a missense mutation on each allele, whereas patients with a severe form of the disease were predicted to have at least one allele with a nonsense, frameshift or splicing mutation. We report two brothers who are both compound heterozygous for the mutations 836 T>C and 2542 G>T detected in exons 4 and 17, respectively. We demonstrate the lack of genotype-phenotype correlation in these patients as one brother shows some features of the severe form while the other does not. Neither clinical nor molecular findings can fully predict the clinical course of SIOD.

Schimke immunoosseous dysplasia (SID) is a rare, pleiotropic disorder compromising spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, nephrotic syndrome, defective T-cell-mediated immunity, and vascular changes which can lead to cerebral infarcts. The cause is unknown but an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern has been suggested. Understanding of the clinical phenotype is evolving; however, the neurologic spectrum is not well known. We report on a 17-year-old woman who presented with behavior changes, developmental regression, and partial complex seizures in early childhood. Computed tomographic scan of the brain was normal at that time. Short stature and cognitive deficits became evident several months later. At 4 1/2 years, she developed nephrotic syndrome and later malignant hypertension. Recent magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed focal encephalomalacia in the parietal regions and a magnetic resonance angiography documented narrowing of the middle cerebral arteries. A skeletal survey showed evidence of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia. We have not been able to identify an immune defect. To our knowledge this is the first reported patient with SID, profound mental retardation, and a seizure disorder. This case supports the theory that an intrinsic vascular defect may be more important in the pathogenesis of SID than a T-cell-mediated immune deficit.
