Wakita R, Kusumoto Y, Shinozuka O, Fukayama H, Maeda S. Dental findings and intravenous sedation in a patient with Potocki-Lupski syndrome: A case report. SPECIAL CARE IN DENTISTRY 2024. [PMID: 38698537 DOI: 10.1111/scd.13008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2023] [Revised: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
AIMS Potocki-Lupski syndrome (PTLS), which is caused by the partial duplication of the short arm of autosome 17, is characterized by feeding difficulties associated with muscle hypotonia and dysphagia in infancy, followed by growth retardation and low body weight in later stages. Speech and motor developmental disorders are observed in childhood, accompanied by autism spectrum disorders in several cases. Other disorders include dental and skeletal abnormalities, and associated sleep apnea. Herein, we describe the first case of dental evaluation and treatment under intravenous sedation in a patient with PTLS. METHODS A 13-year-old boy with PTLS and intellectual disability was referred for the treatment of dental caries. Routine intraoral examination and dental treatment were not feasible. As the patient had no muscle hypotonia, dysphagia, or severe growth delay, intraoral examination and dental treatment were successfully performed under intravenous sedation. No incidence of intraoral airway obstruction or aspiration was reported. The patient was followed-up post-operatively. CONCLUSION PTLS, a newly identified syndrome, is associated with cardiovascular abnormalities, dysphagia, failure to thrive, and sleep apnea, which are potential risk factors for sedation. This case report highlights the importance of facial and oral findings in determining the risks of difficulties in airway management.

Larsen JL, Hansson H, Bisgaard AM, Stahlhut M. Psychological aspects of being a parent of an individual with Rett syndrome: A scoping review. JOURNAL OF APPLIED RESEARCH IN INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES 2024; 37:e13188. [PMID: 38369306 DOI: 10.1111/jar.13188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rett syndrome (RTT) causes multiple disabilities with a lifelong need for substantial care, placing a tremendous lifelong responsibility on the parents. Parenting an individual with RTT can therefore be challenging. Research on the psychological aspects of parenting individuals with RTT is limited and unclear. We aimed to identify and map the existing literature on this subject. METHOD A scoping review was conducted with systematic searches in PubMed, PsycINFO and CINAHL. RESULTS Eighteen studies were included. Negative and positive psychological aspects were described with the majority focusing on the negative. Three factors seemed to especially affect the parents: severity of the diagnosis, time (increasing age of parents or individual with RTT; years of caretaking), work-status of the mother. CONCLUSIONS Seemingly, parents are highly affected; however, the literature is scarce and has several gaps. Future research should include older parents, fathers, parents of individuals living in group homes, and positive aspects.

[PMID: 34992630 PMCID: PMC8724517 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.779237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2021] [Accepted: 12/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Smith-Magenis syndrome and Potocki-Lupski syndrome are rare autosomal dominant diseases. Although clinical phenotypes of adults and children have been reported, fetal ultrasonic phenotypes are rarely reported. A retrospective analysis of 6,200 pregnant women who received invasive prenatal diagnosis at Fujian Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital between October 2016 and January 2021 was performed. Amniotic fluid or umbilical cord blood was extracted for karyotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis. Single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis revealed six fetuses with copy number variant changes in the 17p11.2 region. Among them, one had a copy number variant microdeletion in the 17p11.2 region, which was pathogenically analyzed and diagnosed as Smith-Magenis syndrome. Five fetuses had copy number variant microduplications in the 17p11.2 region, which were pathogenically analyzed and diagnosed as Potocki-Lupski syndrome. The prenatal ultrasound phenotypes of the six fetuses were varied. The parents of two fetuses with Potocki-Lupski syndrome refused verification. Smith-Magenis syndrome in one fetus and Potocki-Lupski in another were confirmed as de novo. Potocki-Lupski syndrome in two fetuses was confirmed to be from maternal inheritance. The prenatal ultrasound phenotypes of Smith-Magenis syndrome and Potocki-Lupski syndrome in fetuses vary; single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis is a powerful diagnostic tool for these diseases. The ultrasonic phenotypes of these cases may enrich the clinical database.

Quality of life of parents with children with congenital abnormalities: a systematic review with meta-analysis of assessment methods and levels of quality of life. Qual Life Res 2021; 31:991-1011. [PMID: 34482484 DOI: 10.1007/s11136-021-02986-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To quantify and understand how to assess the quality of life and health-related QoL of parents with children with congenital abnormalities. METHODS We conducted a systematic review with meta-analysis. The search was carried out in 5 bibliographic databases and in ClinicalTrials.gov. No restriction on language or date of publication was applied. This was complemented by references of the studies found and studies of evidence synthesis, manual search of abstracts of relevant congresses/scientific meetings and contact with experts. We included primary studies (observational, quasi-experimental and experimental studies) on parents of children with CA reporting the outcome quality of life (primary outcome) of parents, independently of the intervention/exposure studied. RESULTS We included 75 studies (35 observational non-comparatives, 31 observational comparatives, 4 quasi-experimental and 5 experimental studies). We identified 27 different QoL instruments. The two most frequently used individual QoL instruments were WHOQOL-Bref and SF-36. Relatively to family QoL tools identified, we emphasized PedsQL FIM, IOFS and FQOL. Non-syndromic congenital heart defects were the CA most frequently studied. Through the analysis of comparative studies, we verified that parental and familial QoL were impaired in this population. CONCLUSIONS This review highlights the relevance of assessing QoL in parents with children with CA and explores the diverse QoL assessment tools described in the literature. Additionally, results indicate a knowledge gap that can help to draw new paths to future research. It is essential to assess QoL as a routine in healthcare providing and to implement strategies that improve it.

Abstract
Parents caring for children with rare diseases fear the long-term progression of the child's disease. The current study aims to systematically investigate the quality of life (QoL) in parents of children with different rare diseases. We performed a systematic literature search including quantitative studies on QoL of parents caring for children and adolescents with rare diseases in five databases (APA PsycArticles, APA PsycInfo, MEDLINE, PSYNDEXplus, and PubMed) published between 2000-2020. Of the 3985 titles identified, 31 studies met the inclusion criteria and were selected for narrative review. Studies were included if they investigated predictors of parental QoL or reported QoL compared to normative samples, parents of healthy children, or children with other chronic diseases. We used the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale to assess methodological quality. The systematic review revealed that parents of children with rare diseases experience reduced QoL compared to parents with healthy children and norm values. Psychosocial factors, beyond disease-specific predictors, were shown to influence parental QoL substantially and may thus present an essential aspect within interventions for this highly burdened group. Health care professionals should consider and address the impairment of parental QoL due to the child's rare disease. We discuss insights into existing research gaps and improvements for subsequent work.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kleefstra syndrome (KS) is associated with developmental delay, autism, intellectual disability, psychosis, and regression. Research has not been conducted to assess the impact of KS on parents. OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS A mixed-method study was conducted to assess the impact on parental well-being by evaluating parents' well-being, identifying factors of parental experience predicting well-being, and exploring the parental experience. METHODS Parents completed an online survey containing the PedsQL™ Family Impact Module (FIM) and a questionnaire created by the researchers. One-Way T-Test compared parents of children with KS to parents of children with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). Multiple linear regression used parents' total scale scores on PedsQL™ FIM to identify factors influencing parental well-being. Constant comparative analysis used open-ended responses to explore the parental experience of having a child with KS. RESULTS Parents of children with KS had statistically lower scores in daily activity and social functioning, but statistically higher scores in communication and emotional functioning compared to parents of children with PWS. However, the power was below 0.80, meaning additional research needs to be completed to confirm these findings. The linear multiple regression was not significant. Most importantly, the themes of establishing the diagnosis, importance of knowledge, sense of community, KS and relationships with others, how life changed, and what the future will hold, characterized the parental experience. CONCLUSIONS Knowledge and support were important to parents who had a child recently diagnosed with KS. Therefore, parents should be provided resources about KS and support groups at diagnosis.

Abstract
Speech delay, intellectual disability, and behavioral disturbances are the main clinical manifestations of Potocki-Lupski syndrome. Other features include infantile hypotonia, the absence of major dysmorphism, sleep disorders, and congenital anomalies, particularly of the cardiovascular system. A male patient with Potocki-Lupski syndrome is reported herein. He showed speech and borderline cognitive delay, behavioral troubles with no signs suggestive of autism, in the absence of major dysmorphism. A de novo 17p12-p11.2 duplication spanning 3.6 Mb was detected, with boundaries from 15,284,052 to 18,647,233 (hg19 assembly). At the age of 5 years, the child showed a noticeable improvement of speech skills and a moderate scholastic performance was reached. Upon analysis of the clinical manifestations of the present patient and those reported in existing literature, we found that the syndrome may present in various degrees of clinical expressivity. Affected patients may manifest symptoms ranging from mild behavioral disturbances to severe degrees of autism.
