Abstract
Pathogenic variants in solute carrier family 34, member 3 (SLC34A3), the gene encoding the sodium-dependent phosphate cotransporter 2c (NPT2c), cause hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria (HHRH). Here, we report a pooled analysis of clinical and laboratory records of 304 individuals from 145 kindreds, including 20 previously unreported HHRH kindreds, in which two novel SLC34A3 pathogenic variants were identified. Compound heterozygous/homozygous carriers show above 90% penetrance for kidney and bone phenotypes. The biochemical phenotype for heterozygous carriers is intermediate with decreased serum phosphate, tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP (%)), fibroblast growth factor 23, and intact parathyroid hormone, but increased serum 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D, and urine calcium excretion causing idiopathic hypercalciuria in 38%, with bone phenotypes still observed in 23% of patients. Oral phosphate supplementation is the current standard of care, which typically normalizes serum phosphate. However, although in more than half of individuals this therapy achieves correction of hypophosphatemia it fails to resolve the other outcomes. The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics score correlated with functional analysis of frequent SLC34A3 pathogenic variants in vitro and baseline disease severity. The number of mutant alleles and baseline TRP (%) were identified as predictors for kidney and bone phenotypes, baseline TRP (%) furthermore predicted response to therapy. Certain SLC34A3/NPT2c pathogenic variants can be identified with partial responses to therapy, whereas with some overlap, others present only with kidney phenotypes and a third group present only with bone phenotypes. Thus, our report highlights important novel clinical aspects of HHRH and heterozygous carriers, raises awareness to this rare group of disorders and can be a foundation for future studies urgently needed to guide therapy of HHRH.

Abstract
Nephrocalcinosis occurs in as many as 40% of preterm neonates. Many causes and contributors predispose neonates to develop nephrocalcinosis, including metabolic, genetic, and iatrogenic factors. Because nephrocalcinosis can be a manifestation of an underlying genetic disorder, neonates with nephrocalcinosis must undergo an evaluation to identify and address contributors, to prevent further renal calcium deposition that can potentially lead to renal dysfunction. In this article, we review the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and evaluation of nephrocalcinosis in neonates. We also summarize the natural history of nephrocalcinosis of prematurity as well as the management of this condition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Infantile hypercalcemia-1 (HCINF1) is a rare disease caused by pathogenic variants in the CYP24A1 gene, resulting in the inability to metabolize active vitamin D. This leads to hypercalcemia and severe complications. CONTENT On December 8th, 2022, a systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Wanfang, and CNKI using the keywords "hypercalcemia" and "CYP24A1". Data extraction included patient demographics, clinical presentation, treatment medications, and outcomes. The findings were synthesized to identify common patterns and variations among cases and to assess the efficacy of different therapies in reducing serum calcium. Our findings revealed two distinct peaks in the incidence of HCINF1 caused by CYP24A1 pathogenic variant. Kidney stones or renal calcifications were the most common clinical manifestations of the disease, followed by polyuria and developmental delay. Laboratory investigations showed hypercalcemia, elevated vitamin D levels, hypercalciuria, and low parathyroid hormone. Genetic analysis remains the only reliable diagnostic tool. Although there is no definitive cure for HCINF1, multiple drugs, including bisphosphonates, calcitonin, and rifampicin, have been used to control its symptoms. Blocking the production and intake of vitamin D is the preferred treatment option. SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK Our review highlights the basic clinical and biochemical features of HCINF1 and suggests that targeted diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are needed to address the clinical heterogeneity of the disease. The insights gained from this study may facilitate the development of innovative treatments for HCINF1.

Abstract
Idiopathic infantile hypercalcemia (IIH) is a rare genetic disease, also called hypersensitivity to vitamin D3. The molecular heterogeneity allows for the differentiation between the two forms; IIH type 1 caused by CYP24A1 genetic variants and IIH type 2 associated with SLC34A1 mutations. The affected individuals express a variety of symptoms: hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, suppressed intact parathormone levels (PTH), nephrocalcinosis, elevated levels of serum 1,25 (OH)2-vitamin D3 or inappropriately normal levels, and kidney phosphate wasting. The present paper describes three cases of IIH with heterozygous mutations in SLC34A1 and CYP24A1 genes, respectively. The genetic diagnosis is of paramount importance for proper treatment and the prediction of long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Background and aims Vitamin D 24-hydroxylase is an enzyme encoded by the CYP24A1 gene, which inhibits the activation of vitamin D to form inactive metabolites. More than 20 currently described pathogenic variants (usually biallelic) of this gene are responsible for idiopathic infantile hypercalcemia manifested typically in childhood (often in newborns) with hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, and nephrocalcinosis. However, a few patients (mostly with monoallelic heterozygous pathogenic variants) can develop mild symptoms in adulthood. Case description We present the case of a 43-year-old male patient with hypertension and heterozygous Leiden mutation, with mural thrombi in the common iliac artery, who was sent by a nephrologist to endocrinological examination due to hypoparathyroidism, progressive hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, and CKDG2A1. Complete laboratory and imaging methods (including PET-CT) excluded PTH-related peptide-mediated hypercalcemia and granulomatosis. Finally, the genetic analysis of the CYP24A1 gene revealed the presence of a novel combination of two heterozygous pathogenic variants: CYP24A1: c. 443T>C p.(Leu148Pro) and c.1186C>T p.(Arg396Trp). Conclusion Differential diagnosis of patients with hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, and hypercalcemia related to vitamin D exposure should include the CYP24A1 gene mutation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of the novel combination of two heterozygous pathogenic variants of CYP24A1.
