Abstract
OBJECTIVE Paired box 7 (PAX7) has been considered as a candidate gene for non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL/P). However, there is no research for the XXX, and previous studies concentrated on limited variants. This study aimed to conduct sufficiently dense and powerful scans of variants at PAX7 and explored the roles of variants at PAX7 in NSCL/P among the XXX. DESIGN Targeted region sequencing was performed to thoroughly screen variations, followed by a two-phase association analysis. 159 NSCL/P cases and 542 controls were analyzed in phase 1. Then in phase 2, the validation study was performed using 1626 cases and 2255 controls. We also explored the roles of variants at PAX7 gene in NSCL/P subtypes. Additionally, indirect associations were found by calculating LD and haplotypes. SETTING The study was conducted in XXX. PATIENTS, PARTICIPANTS 159 NSCL/P cases and 542 controls were analyzed in phase 1. Then in phase 2, the validation study was performed using 1626 cases and 2255 controls. INTERVENTIONS Blood samples were collected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES To explore the association analysis between variants at PAX7 and NSCL/P in XXX. RESULTS The results showed that rs2236810, rs114882979 and rs2236804 were significantly associated with NSCL/P, which were predicted to have regulatory functions. Besides, variants at PAX7 function differently in the NSCL/P subtypes. We also discovered a PAX7 missense variant, NM_001135254 p.A369 V (NM_002584.2:c.1106C > T). CONCLUSIONS In summary, we confirmed 3 SNPs at PAX7 were significantly associated with NSCL/P in XXX and identified a missense variant, NM_001135254 p.A369 V (NM_002584.2:c.1106C > T).

Abstract
Objective Congenital cleft lip and palate is a common birth defect that seriously affects the lives of the afflicted children and their families. Previously, no research has been done to investigate the pathogenic characteristics of cleft lip and palate among ethnic minorities, for example, Tibetans, a minority ethnic group with a large population in China. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the occurrence of cleft lip and palate in Tibetans and Han Chinese in western China and the distribution of ABO blood groups and Rh blood groups to provide a theoretical basis for the precise prevention and treatment of cleft lip and palate. Methods In this study, statistics on Tibetan patients with cleft lip and palate, some Han patients with cleft lip and palate, and normal controls from western China were retrospectively collected. All participants were patients from West China Stomatology Hospital, Sichuan University. All patients with cleft lip and palate received treatment at the hospital between January 2016 and September 2023. The normal controls were outpatients or inpatients who did not have cleft lip and palate, and who received treatment at the hospital between January 2020 and October 2023. Information on the A, B, O, and AB blood groups and Rh positive and negative blood groups of the patients was collected and compared with that of the normal controls. The incidence of different phenotypes, including cleft lip alone, cleft palate alone, and cleft lip with cleft palate, in patients of blood groups A, B, O and AB were statistically analyzed by Chi-square test. Results A total of 1227 Tibetan patients with cleft lip and palate, 4064 Han patients with cleft lip and palate, and 5360 normal controls were included in the study. Among all the patients with cleft lip and palate, 1863 had cleft lip alone, 1425 had cleft palate alone, and 2003 had cleft lip with cleft palate. The ABO blood group distribution of Tibetan patients with cleft lip and palate was characterized as O>B>A>AB, with Rh positive blood group accounting for 100%, blood type O accounting for 41.15%, and blood type B accounting for 30.64%. The blood group distribution of the Han patients with cleft lip and palate was characterized as O>A>B>AB, with Rh positive blood group accounting for 99.58%, blood type O accounting for 35.78%, and type A accounting for 30.54%. There was a significant difference in ABO blood groups between Tibetan and Han patients with cleft lip and palate (P<0.005), but no significant difference in Rh blood groups. The ABO blood group distribution of the Tibetan patients with cleft lip and palate showed an obvious difference from that of the control group, while those of the Han patients with cleft lip and cleft palate and the control group did not show obvious differences. In the analysis of the subtypes, it was found that the blood group distribution in the subtypes of cleft lip alone, cleft palate alone, and cleft lip with cleft palate in the Tibetan population was O>B>A>AB, while that in the Han Chinese population was O>A>B>AB. There were differences in blood group distribution between Tibetans and Hans of the subtypes of cleft lip alone and cleft lip with cleft palate (P<0.001), but there was no difference in blood group distribution in the population of cleft palate-only subtype. The proportion of blood type O in Tibetan patients with cleft lip and palate was significantly higher than that in the Han patients with cleft lip and palate. The blood group distribution of Tibetan patients with cleft lip and palate in Sichuan Province, Xizang Autonomous Region, and Qinghai Province was always O>B>A>AB. Tibetan patients from Shiqu County and Baiyu County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and Chaya County, Qamdo City were predominantly of blood type B, and those from other regions were mainly of blood type O. Conclusion There were significant differences in the phenotype composition and ABO blood group distribution between the Tibetan and Han populations with cleft lip and palate in western China. The distribution of blood group O in the population with cleft lip and palate was higher than that in the normal population, and the same trend was observed for different phenotypes. However, differences between Tibetan and Han populations in ABO blood group distribution were only found in the phenotypes of cleft lip only and cleft lip with palate. Tibetans with blood type O are more prone to cleft lip deformity than Han people, and the effect in the phenotype of cleft lip with palate is less pronounced than that in the phenotype of cleft lip only.

Erdost ŞK, Gözen D. The effect of position on feeding performance in infants with cleft lip and palate: Quasiexperimental study. J SPEC PEDIATR NURS 2024; 29:e12428. [PMID: 38800888 DOI: 10.1111/jspn.12428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE This single-group, quasiexperimental study was conducted to determine the effect of feeding position on the physiological parameters and feeding performance of term-born infants with cleft lip and palate (CLP) in the preoperative period. METHODS The study sample consisted of 45 infants aged 0-6 months with CLP followed up preoperatively in our outpatient clinic between January 2021 and 2022. Infants who were being fed with a specialty bottle for babies with CLP and whose families consented to participate in the study were included. After 2 h of fasting, the infants were fed in the elevated supine (ESU) position for the first meal, then in the elevated side-lying (ESL) position for the second meal after another 2 h of fasting. The infants' heart rate and oxygen saturation values before, during, and after each feed and indicators of feeding performance were compared between the positions. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the positions in terms of heart rate and oxygen saturation before, during, or after feeding (p > .05). There was no statistically significant difference in measures of feeding performance according to the infants' feeding position (p > .05). CONCLUSION According to the findings obtained in this study, infants with CLP showed no statistically significant differences in heart rate, oxygen saturation, or feeding performance when fed in the ESL and ESU positions. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS However, despite the lack of statistical significance, both physiological values and feeding performance tended to be better when the infants were fed in the ESL position, nurses can practice ESL position according to the infant's opposite direction of the side of the cleft lip or palate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This work aimed to study the correlation between FOXN3-SIN3A complex expression and non-syndromic oral clefts (NSOC) in Xinjiang. METHODS In this study, 60 patients with NSOC attending the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were recruited into the case group, including 30 cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P), 30 cleft palate only (CPO), and 30 healthy children in the control group. The expression levels of FOXN3, SIN3A, and NEAT1 in peripheral blood of each group were detected by high-throughput second-generation sequencing technology and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency of NSOC. RESULTS The comparison of the NSOC and control groups showed that FOXN3, SIN3A, and NEAT1 genes increased compared with the control group. The differences were all statistically significant (P<0.05). The AUCs of FOXN3, SIN3A, and NEAT1 in the NSCL/P group were 0.933 [95%CI=(0.864, 1.000)], 0.822 [(95%CI=(0.713, 0.932)], and 1.000[95%CI= (1.000, 1.000)], respectively. The AUCs of FOX-N3, SIN3A, and NEAT1 in the CPO group were 0.891 [95%CI=(0.806, 0.976)], 0.688 [95%CI=(0.552, 0.824)], and 1.000 [95%CI=(1.000, 1.000)], respectively. CONCLUSIONS The results showed a correlation between the rising gene expression of FOXN3, SIN3A, and NEAT1 in peripheral blood and the occurrence of NSOC in Xinjiang. This work provides a theoretical basis for further study of the FOXN3-SIN3A complex as biomarkers to facilitate the early screening, disease prediction, and early prevention of NSOC.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY To elucidate the design and fabrication methodologies employed in creating a personalized cleft lip simulation model, primarily intended for enhancing surgical training and diverse applications. The study further sought to assess the viability of integrating this simulation model into undergraduate oral experiments and instructional settings. STUDY DESIGN Facial data from individuals with cleft lip conditions were acquired using a scanner. Subsequent stages involved reverse engineering and the utilization of 3D printing technology to generate a cleft lip silicone simulation model. The molding process entailed injecting silicone into a polylactic acid mold. The study enrolled 53 undergraduate students majoring in dentistry, who were randomly assigned to either a control or experimental group. A dedicated instructor guided each group independently, employing a combination of multiple-choice tests and surveys to gauge real-time evaluations and discern inter-group disparities. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS We successfully designed and produced a personalized cleft lip simulation model, demonstrating notable efficacy in the context of cleft lip experimental teaching. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference (P < 0.05) in the scores of the experimental group students on multiple-choice questions pertaining to cleft lip surgical procedures. Survey outcomes indicated that the experimental group students exhibited higher confidence levels in cleft lip surgery, as reflected from their responses to relevant questions, compared to the traditional group students. These differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The simulation model developed in this study emerges as a reliable and cost-effective training and teaching tool for cleft lip surgery.

Abstract
Objective To examine the characteristics of the prevalence of congenital cleft lip with/without cleft palate in the ethnic Tibetan population and to provide support for the precise prevention and treatment of cleft lip with/without cleft palate in the Tibetan population. Methods The clinical data of Tibetan patients with cleft lip with/without cleft palate were collected and the clinical characteristics of the patients were analyzed. The patients' age ranged from 2 months to 51 years old. All the subjects were admitted to West China Stomatology Hospital, Sichuan University for the treatment of cleft lip with/without cleft palate between January 2016 and August 2023. Most of the subjects came from Sichuan Province and the Tibet Autonomous Region. Results A total of 1051 patients were enrolled and children aged under 12 months (460 cases) accounted for the largest proportion. Among the subjects, 383 had cleft lip only (36.44%), 140 had cleft palate only (13.32%), and 528 had cleft lip with cleft palate (50.24%). The male-to-female ratios of patients with cleft lip only (0.99∶1), cleft palate only (0.54∶1), and cleft lip with cleft palate (1.67∶1) exhibited significant differences (P<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the male-to-female ratio in patients with cleft lip only or those with cleft lip with cleft palate when the subjects were divided into two groups according to whether they had unilateral or bilateral cleft lip with/without cleft palate. Most of the patients with bilateral cleft lip were female, while most of the patients with unilateral cleft lip and unilateral or bilateral cleft lip with cleft palate were male. The unilateral cleft lip with/without cleft palate was located predominantly on the left side. Syndromic cleft lip with/without cleft palate accounted for 3.43% of all the cases and the most common concomitant deformity was congenital heart disease. 3.81% (40 cases) of the patients had a family history. In the patients with cleft lip only and those with cleft palate only, the proportion of patients having parents with corresponding phenotypes was higher than those of other phenotypes of cleft lip with/without cleft palate. Regarding the birth time distribution of the children with cleft lip with/without cleft palate, Spring saw the highest number of births of these children (311 cases, 29.59%), while Winter saw the lowest number of births (231 cases, 21.98%). Conclusion The cases of cleft lip with/without cleft palate in the ethnic Tibetan population are predominantly cleft lip and palate. Unilateral cleft lip only or cleft lip with palate is predominantly located on the left side. Lip disease phenotypes may be more heritable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to investigate the gene-gene interactions associated with NSCL/P among DNA repair genes. DESIGN This study included 806 NSCL/P case-parent trios from China. Quality control process was conducted for genotyped single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in six DNA repair genes (ATR, ERCC4, RFC1, TYMS, XRCC1 and XRCC3). We tested gene-gene interactions with Cordell's method using statistical package TRIO in R software. Bonferroni corrected significance level was set as P = 4.24 × 10-4. We also test the robustness of the interactions by permutation tests. SETTING Not applicable. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS A total of 806 NSCL/P case-parent trios (complete trios: 682, incomplete trios: 124) with Chinese ancestry. INTERVENTIONS Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Not applicable. RESULTS A total of 118 SNPs were extracted for the interaction tests. Fourteen pairs of significant interactions were identified after Bonferroni correction, which were confirmed in permutation tests. Twelve pairs were between ATR and ERCC4 or XRCC3. The most significant interaction occurred between rs2244500 in TYMS and rs3213403 in XRCC1(P = 8.16 × 10-15). CONCLUSIONS The current study identified gene-gene interactions among DNA repair genes in 806 Chinese NSCL/P trios, providing additional evidence for the complicated genetic structure underlying NSCL/P. ATR, ERCC4, XRCC3, TYMS and RFC1 were suggested to be possible candidate genes for NSCL/P.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The role of MMP16 in lip development is unclear. This study aimed to identify nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL ± P) susceptible loci of MMP16 in western Han Chinese. DESIGN We performed targeted sequencing around MMP16 combined with a 2-phase association analysis on common variants. Phase 2 association analysis was performed with NSCL ± P specific subphenotypes (NSCL and NSCLP). Then we used rare variants burden analysis and genotyping, accompanied by motif analysis. SETTING This study was completed in a tertiary medical center. PATIENTS, PARTICIPANTS Phase 1 targeted sequencing included 159 patients with NSCL ± P and 542 normal controls; phase 2 included 1626 patients with NSCL ± P (1047 NSCL and 579 NSCLP) and 2255 normal controls. INTERVENTIONS Venous blood samples were collected from patients and used to extract DNA. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES After Bonferroni correction, phase 1 significant threshold of p-value was 4.28 × 10-5 (0.05/1167 single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs]), and phase 2 was .00025 (0.05/200 SNPs). Burden analysis significant threshold p-value was .05. RESULTS Common variants phase 1 association analysis identified 11 statistically significant SNPs (lowest p = 1.90 × 10-9, odds ratio (OR) = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.17-0.44), phase 2 replication identified 16 SNPs in NSCL ± P (lowest p = 6.26 × 10-6, OR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.69-0.86) and 9 in NSCL (lowest p = 8.44 × 10-5, OR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.66-0.87). Rare variants burden analysis showed no significant results, genotyping results showed they were maternally inherited. CONCLUSIONS Our study identified MMP16 susceptible SNPs in NSCL ± P and NSCL, emphasizing its potential role in lip development. Our study also highlighted the importance to perform association analysis with subphenotypes divided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore effective factors of surgical effect for patients with cleft lip and palate, and to construct the predictive model of surgical effect, which provide reference for improving the effect of cleft lip and palate surgery. METHODS This study has been ethically reviewed and approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Guiyang Stomatological Hospital before the study began.A total of 997 cases of cleft lip and palate surgical treatment in Guiyang Stomatological Hospital from 2015 to 2020 were collected. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing the surgical outcome, and a score system was established by assigning values to the influencing factors using the nomogram. Data of 110 patients were verified, and decision curve analysis was used to evaluate the predicted results. RESULTS Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of surgeries, surgical methods, breast milk, prenatal examination, nutrition during pregnancy and labor intensity during pregnancy were independent risk factors for poor surgical results (all P<0.05). The predictive model was built by including the number of surgeries, surgical methods, breast milk, prenatal examination, nutrition and labor intensity during pregnancy into the predictive scoring system. The critical value was 273, the area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.733(95%CI:0.704~0.76), the sensitivity was 89.57%, and the specificity was 48.14%.When the external validation data of 110 patients were brought into the score, the AUC of poor diagnostic value reached 74.5%, P<0.05, which was close to the modeling accuracy of 73.3%. CONCLUSION This study constructed a predictive model of surgical effect for patients with cleft lip and palate, which can be used for the clinical prediction of cleft lip and palate patients in Guizhou Province.

[PMID: 37141954 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147459] [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: 01/05/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
AIM Mammalian STE20-like protein kinase 2 (MST2) plays an important role in apoptosis and the development of many disorders. Here, we aim to explore if genetic variants in MST2 are associated with the risk of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL/P). MATERIALS AND METHODS The association study was performed in a two-stage study of 1,069 cases and 1,724 controls to evaluate the association between genetic variants in the MST2 and NSCL/P risk. The potential function of the candidate single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was predicted using HaploReg, RegulomeDB, and public craniofacial histone chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) data. Haploview was used to perform the haplotype of risk alleles. The expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) effect was assessed using the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. Gene expression in mouse embryo tissue was performed using data downloaded from GSE67985. The potential role of candidate gene in the development of NSCL/P was assessed by correlation and enrichment analysis. RESULTS Among SNPs in MST2, rs2922070 C allele (Pmeta = 2.93E-04) and rs6988087 T allele (Pmeta = 1.57E-03) were linked with significantly increased risk of NSCL/P. Rs2922070, rs6988087 and their high linkage disequilibrium (LD) SNPs constituted a risk haplotype of NSCL/P. Individuals carrying 3-4 risk alleles had an elevated risk of NSCL/P compared to those who carried less risk alleles (P = 2.00E-04). The eQTL analysis revealed a significant association between these two variants and MST2 in muscle tissue of the body. The MST2 expressed during mouse craniofacial development and over-expressed in the human orbicularis oris muscle (OOM) of NSCL/P patients compared to controls. MST2 was involved in the development of NSCL/P by regulating the mRNA surveillance pathway, the MAPK signaling pathway, the neurotrophin signaling pathway, the FoxO signaling pathway and the VEGF signaling pathway. CONCLUSION MST2 was associated with the development of NSCL/P.

[PMID: 34894020 DOI: 10.1111/odi.14100] [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: 08/20/2021] [Revised: 11/21/2021] [Accepted: 11/25/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Considering limitations of previous studies and differences across populations and subtypes, this study aimed to identify new potential SNPs around IRF6 associated with non-syndromic orofacial cleft (NSOC) in Western Han Chinese. MATERIALS AND METHODS We recruited 376 NSOC case-parent trios, including 125 non-syndromic cleft lip only (NSCLO) trios, 151 non-syndromic cleft lip and palate (NSCLP) trios, and 100 non-syndromic cleft palate only (NSCPO) trios. Twenty-two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped using MassARRAY method. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test, allelic transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) analysis, sliding-window haplotype TDT analysis, and tests for parent-of-origin effect were performed using the PLINK software. Pairwise linkage disequilibrium (LD) was computed using the Haploview program. RESULTS In TDT analysis, allele A at rs17015217 (p = 0.00011, OR = 0.61 and 95% CI: 0.47-0.78) and allele T at rs12080691 (p = 0.00011, OR = 0.61 and 95% CI: 0.47-0.78) were under-transmitted among NSCLO trios but over-transmitted among NSCPO trios. Haplotypes showing evidence of under-transmission in NSCLO trios were over-transmitted in NSCPO trios. In tests for parent-of-origin effects, T allele at rs12080691 presented paternal under-transmission among NSCLO trios but over-transmission among NSCPO trios. CONCLUSIONS Allele A at rs17015217 and allele T at rs12080691 are associated with NSCLO and NSCPO with potential to have opposite effects on two subtypes in this sample from Western Han Chinese.

Birth Defects Res 2023; 115:545-554. [PMID: 36595654 DOI: 10.1002/bdr2.2146] [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: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the relationship between maternal periconceptional supplementation with folic acid only (FAO) or with multiple micronutrients containing folic acid (MMFA) and non-syndromic cleft lip/palate in offspring. METHOD The data came from a prenatal health care system and a birth defects surveillance system in Beijing, China, from 2013 to 2018. Information on maternal FAO/MMFA supplementation was collected by questionnaire in the first trimester, and data on cleft lip/palate were collected at delivery or termination of pregnancy. Inverse probability weighting (IPW) by the propensity score to adjust for the confounders and Poisson regression model was used to estimate risk ratios (RRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS A total of 63,969 participants were included in the study. Compared to the no-supplementation group, the adjusted RR for the supplementation group was 0.51 (95% CI: 0.40, 0.64). And the adjusted RRs for FAO and MMFA compared to the no-supplementation group were 0.56 (95% CI: 0.40, 0.76) and 0.48 (95% CI: 0.35, 0.65), respectively. Compared to supplement FAO and MMFA with less than 8 days out of 10 days, the adjusted RRs for FAO and MMFA with 8 or more days out of 10 days were 1.17 (95% CI: 0.78, 1.75), and 2.05 (95% CI: 1.37, 3.31), respectively. CONCLUSION Maternal supplementation with micronutrients, either FAO or MMFA, during the periconceptional period can reduce the risk for non-syndromic cleft lip/palate in offspring. However, women should be more cautious with MMFA supplementation.

Identification of putative regulatory single-nucleotide variants in NTN1 gene associated with NSCL/P. J Hum Genet 2023:10.1038/s10038-023-01137-1. [PMID: 36879001 DOI: 10.1038/s10038-023-01137-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023]
Abstract
Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is a common polygenetic disease. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified NTN1 gene as a high-priority candidate of NSCL/P, the comprehensive genetic architecture of NTN1 weren't yet known. Thus, this study aimed to determine full-scale genetic variants of NTN1 for NSCL/P in Chinese Han people. Initially, targeted sequencing of NTN1 gene was performed on 159 NSCL/P patients to identify susceptible single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with NSCL/P. Then, association analysis and burden analysis were separately used to validate the common variants and rare variants identified among large size of samples (1608 NSCL/P cases and 2255 controls). Additionally, NSCL/P subtype association analysis was applied to elucidate the etiology discrepancy of non-syndromic cleft lip with palate (NSCLP) and non-syndromic cleft lip only (NSCLO). Lastly, bioinformatics analysis was performed to annotate and prioritize candidate variants. We found 15 NSCL/P-associated SNPs including rs4791774 (P = 1.10E-08, OR = 1.467, 95% CI: 1.286~1.673) and rs9788972 (P = 1.28E-07, OR = 1.398, 95% CI : 1.235~1.584) originally detected by previous GWASs in Chinese Han ancestry. Four NSCLO risk-associated SNPs and eight specific NSCLP associated SNPs were found. Three SNPs (rs4791331, rs4791774 and rs9900753) were predicted to locate at regulatory region of NTN1. Our study validated the association between NTN1 gene and pathogenesis of NSCL/P and reinforced the hypothesis that NSCLP have a different etiology from NSCLO. We also identified three putative regulatory SNPs in NTN1 gene.

Abstract
PREAMBLE The incidence and accuracy of cleft epidemiology is variable depending on geographical region, population group, and country being assessed. Confounding factors are rendered more accurate if consecutive patients seen in a unit over a prolonged period are reported. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plastic surgery charts at Inkosi Albert Luthuli Central Hospital (IALCH) were reviewed from 2003 to 2019. Appropriate International Classification of Diseases (ICD) cleft codes were used to obtain a cleft database of all cleft patients. The review revealed 1487 cleft patients. Data extracted included sex, race, extent of cleft lip or palate, laterality, and birth month. RESULTS Overall, there was an almost equivalent sex distribution with 745 females and 742 males. There were 390 cleft lip only (26%), 505 cleft lip with palate (CLP) (34%), and 592 cleft palate only (40%). In the cleft lip only group, Black females were affected in 54% and males in 46%, whereas in the Asian group, females were affected in 33% and males in 67% ( P =0.022). In the CLP group, Asian and Colored females were affected more (56% and 60%, respectively), while in the Black and White groups, females were less affected (40% and 26%, respectively). Cleft palate only was the most common category in Black (44%) and Colored (55%), while the CLP category was most common in Asian (49%) and White (42%). CONCLUSIONS Demographics of cleft lip and palate in KwaZulu Natal is different from other series in certain aspects. In addition, there are differences in the race groups when analyzing certain aspects. The differences may be based on genetic or environmental factors and warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Current studies on air pollutant exposure during pregnancy and orofacial clefts (OFCs) have inconsistent results, and few studies have investigated refined susceptible windows for OFCs. We aim to estimate association between air pollution and OFCs during the first trimester of pregnancy and identify specific susceptible windows. Birth data was obtained from Birth Defects Surveillance Network in Lanzhou from 2014 to 2019. Air pollution data and temperature data were obtained from ambient air monitoring stations and China Meteorological Data Network, respectively. A distribution lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was applied to estimate weekly-exposure-lag-response association between air pollutant levels and OFCs. The study included 320,787 perinatal infants from 2014 to 2019, of which 685 (2.14‰) were OFCs. The results demonstrated that exposure of pregnant women to aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 μm (PM10) at lag 4-5 weeks was significantly associated with the risk of OFCs, with the greatest impact at the lag 4 week (RR = 1.029, 95% CI = 1.001-1.057). Exposure to sulfur dioxide (SO2) at lag 2-4 weeks was significantly associated with the risk of OFCs, with the greatest impact at the lag 3 week (RR = 1.096, 95% CI = 1.041-1.177). This study provides further evidence that exposure to air pollution increases the risk of OFCs in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore the associations between soluble epoxide hydrolase 2 gene (EPHX2) variants and non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in Chinese Han population. METHODS We recruited 159 NSCL/P cases from Chinese Han population and carried out targeted resequencing using the whole genome sequencing data of 542 healthy Chinese individuals from Novegene internal database as controls. We classified EPHX2 variants as common or rare according to their minor allele frequency and performed an association analysis for common variations and a burden analysis for rare variations. RESULTS The lowest P-value in NSCL/P was observed at rs57699806 (P=0.000 13, OR=2.849 and 95% CI: 1.691-4.800), followed by rs4732723 (P=0.006 50, OR=0.662 and 95%CI: 0.491-0.892), rs7829267 (P=0.009 20, OR=1.496 and 95%CI: 1.117-2.005), rs721619 (P=0.011 00, OR=1.474 and 95%CI: 1.098-1.980), and rs7816586 (P=0.040 00, OR=1.310 and 95%CI: 1.015-1.691). The odds ratios suggested the C allele at rs4732723 as a protective factor for NSCL/P and the reference alleles at other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as the risk factors for NSCL/P. Burden analysis showed no statistical significance (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Through targeted resequencing, this study identified five SNPs named rs57699806, rs4732723, rs7829267, rs721619, and rs7816586 around the region of EPHX2 gene associated with NSCL/P in Chinese Han population. Four SNPs of rs57699806, rs4732723, rs7829267, and rs7816586 were first identified.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to compare the surgical effects of the modified West China method and Millard methods for repairing unilateral cleft lip. METHODS A total of 34 cases of unilateral cleft lip were analyzed, composed of 16 cases in the experimental group subjected to the modified West China method and 18 cases in the control group, which was subjected to the Millard method. Photographs before and after operation were compared, and SPSS 21.0 was used in statistical analysis. RESULTS After operation, no significant difference in symmetry between the healthy and affected sides of the nasal alar foot (sba), nasal alar point (al), lip peak point (cph), and mouth angle point (ch) in the experimental group (P>0.05), but no significant difference in symmetry was found between healthy and affected sides of cph and ch in the control group (P>0.05). No significant differences in the symmetry rates of the sba, cph, ch and the nasal columella regression rates were found between the experimental and control groups (P>0.05). The symmetry rates of the al in the experimental group were higher (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS For unilateral cleft lip repair, two methods had better effects on lip repair, but the nasal symmetry showed greater improvement when the modified West China me-thod was used than when the Millard method was used.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A significant genetic association between rs7078160 in VAX1 and NSCL/P has been established through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and we previously replicated the association in the Chinese population. The critical issue in the post-GWAS era is to identify functional variations that have a real impact on disease in the susceptible regions highlighted by GWAS. This study aimed to elucidate functional variants in VAX1 fully. MATERIALS AND METHODS Firstly, target sequencing was performed on 159 NSCL/P patients, followed by association analysis to discover disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs); we then replicated the findings using a larger sample (1626 cases, 2255 controls) and investigated how candidate SNPs affect disease occurrence using extensive annotation databases. Additionally, we compared the genetic profiles of NSCL/P subtypes. RESULTS In this study, 6 SNPs in VAX1 were identified to be associated with NSCL/P in the Western Han Chinese population. Five of them were predicted to influence transcriptional factor biding ability and were expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) of nearby genes in multiple tissues. CONCLUSION The previously reported association between rs7078160 and NSCL/P was successfully replicated. Moreover, our findings firstly revealed that 5 SNPs in VAX1 are associated with NSCL/P in the Western Han Chinese population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empowerment is recognized as a crucial concept in strengthening the position of parents in healthcare services. This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish Family Empowerment Scale (FES). METHODS This methodological study was conducted between January and March 2021, with 348 family members actively caring for their children in the age group of 0-18 years with cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P). The English FES was translated into Turkish using back translation and modified so that it is generic and convenient for all families. The construct validity, internal validity, internal consistency, and split-half test reliability and responsiveness of the Turkish FES were examined. RESULTS The original FES structure with three factors (family, health services provided to the child and community participation) and 34 items was verified in Turkish culture. This obtained structure can explain 66% of the variance of the relevant concept. Scores of parents ranged between 34 and 170 points. Increasing scores indicated a positive significance regarding family empowerment. The Cronbach's α reliability coefficient of the scale was calculated as 0.976. CONCLUSION The study findings and the goodness-of-fit values indicated that the FES and its Turkish version are a valid and reliable measurement instrument to be used in Turkish culture.

Abstract
The proper development and the homeostasis maintenance of bones are important prerequisites for the normal functioning of the human body. Bone developmental deformities or homeostasis disorders, such as Kashin-Beck disease, craniosynostosis, cleft palate and osteoarthritis, severely affect the life of patients, causing significant stress to the family and the society. Fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) plays multiple functions through the course of the life of organisms. Abnormal expression of FGF8 may cause disorders of bone homeostasis and developmental abnormalities of bones. More and more studies have found that FGF8 may play an important role in bone development and may become a potential therapeutic target. Herein, we reviewed the role of FGF8 in a variety of skeletal abnormalities, intending to provide new perspectives for the prevention and treatment of related diseases in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL ± P) is one of the most common birth malformations. Currently, numerous susceptibility SNPs have been reported by GWA studies, however, the replications of them among NSCL ± P from Han Chinese were very limited. DESIGN In this study, we selected 16 SNPs around 1q32.2 based on the published GWA studies and replicated them among 302 trios with NSCL ± P from Han Chinese Population. The genotypic data was analyzed with FBAT, PLINK and R package. SETTING The study was conducted in a tertiary medical center. PATIENTS, PARTICIPANTS 302 patients with CL ± P and their parents. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES To ascertain the genetic variants in 1q32.2 in patients with CL ± P in Han Chinese Population. INTERVENTIONS Blood samples were collected. RESULTS We found T allele (Z = 4.26, p = 0.00002) and T/T homozygotes (Z = 4.4, p = 0.000011) at rs12063989 was significantly over-transmitted among non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL ± P). CONCLUSIONS We found rs12063989 exhibited significant association with the occurrence of NSCL ± P, which would provide new evidence for the future study in the etiology of NSCL ± P.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Non-syndromic cleft palate only (NSCPO) is a common congenital deformity with complex etiologies. GRHL3, FAF1, and KCNJ2 have been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of NSCPO. Up till now, there have been no replication studies based on large Han Chinese. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate associations between GRHL3, FAF1, KCNJ2, and NSCPO sub-phenotypes patients in Han Chinese. MATERIALS AND METHODS Firstly, we selected 2 SNPs based on previous literatures: FAF1 (rs3827730) and GRHL3 (rs41268753). Also, we selected 8 tagSNPs in GRHL3 (rs557811, rs609352, rs10903078, rs6659209, rs12401714, rs12568599, rs3887581, rs12024148) and 2 tagSNPs in KCNJ2 (rs75855040 and rs236514). Afterward, we evaluated these SNPs among 1668 NSCPO patients and 1811 normal controls from Han Chinese. Following data were analyzed by PLINK and Haploview program. RESULTS Association analysis under additive model showed that allele A at rs12568599 in GRHL3 gene is significantly associated with NSCPO (p = 0.0034, OR = 1.38 and 95%CI: 1.11-1.72) and its sub-phenotype incomplete cleft palate (ICP) (p = 0.0039, OR = 1.4 and 95%CI: 1.11-1.75), and it could increase the risk of both NSCPO and ICP. CONCLUSIONS This study firstly found that rs12568599 in GRHL3 is associated with NSCPO and ICP in Han Chinese, indicating that sub-phenotypes of NSCPO have different etiologies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Craniofacial growth is a dynamic and unpredictable process influenced by genetic and environmental factors, presenting phenotypic and gender differences. OBJECTIVE Evaluate the differences in craniofacial growth and development in a group of Colombian individuals with complete unilateral and bilateral cleft lip and palate (CLP) and without CLP, classified by gender and age. SETTING AND SAMPLE POPULATION Five hundred forty-one profile radiographs of 126 patients with unilateral CLP, 126 with bilateral CLP, and 289 without CLP. All patients of affected groups had a history of CLP correction surgery without nasoalveolar molding with orthopedic and orthodontic treatments. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was performed comparing 8 cephalometric measurements on radiographs, 5 linear/3 angular. Analysis was performed by median and interquartile range for all cephalometric measurements. Comparison between the groups was performed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U, with a 95% confidence. RESULTS Significant differences between the groups of patients with and without CLP, between types of clefts and genders. The skeletal structures of patients with CLP were smaller than those of control but improved with growth. Patients with unilateral CLP presented flat profiles and predominant class III malocclusions, while patients with bilateral CLP, at early ages, were class II and in the prepubertal stage, the values were progressively negative until the end of the growth period, suggesting class III. Patients with CLP presented posteroinferior rotation of the mandible, vertical measurements increased, and deflection of the cranial base. CONCLUSION Given their growth alterations, patients with CLP benefit from orthopedic and orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The research on the etiology of nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate(NSCL/P) is challenging, and DNA methylation has an impact on the formation of cleft lip and palate. SUBJECTS In this study, one of a pair of monozygotic twins (T1) had nonsyndromic cleft lip (NSCL), and one of a pair of monozygotic twins (T2) had nonsyndromic cleft lip and palate (NSCLP). We determined the methylation profiles of more than 850,000 CpGs in the DNA of the blood samples from the two pairs of monozygotic twins. RESULT Methylation data indicated that 1184 differentially methylated CpG sites were found in the T1 group (651 hypermethylated and 533 hypomethylated) and 8099 differentially methylated CpG sites in the T2 group (1713 hypermethylated and 6386 hypomethylated) compared with the healthy twin.The common difference was 107 methylation sites.GO enrichment analysis showed that regulation of smooth muscle cell migration and actin cytoskeleton reorganization were the most prominent classes.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the TGF-β signaling pathway, Notch signaling pathway and Wnt signaling pathway are relevant to the formation of NSCL/P.Two selected genes (NTN1 and PLEKHA7) are involved in the formation of NSCL/P. CONCLUSION These findings provide some support for the hypothesis that abnormal DNA methylation may influence the formation of clefts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aim to investigate association between WNT3A methylation and risk of non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NSCL/P), and examine mediating effect of WNT3A methylation on the association of NSCL/P and lead (Pb) exposure in fetuses. METHODS DNA methylation of WNT3A in umbilical cord blood was determined among 59 NSCL/P cases and 118 non-malformed controls. Mediation analysis was performed to evaluate the potential mediating effect of WNT3A methylation on association between concentrations of Pb in umbilical cord and risk for NSCL/P. Additionally, an animal experiment in which cleft palates were induced by lead acetate was conducted. RESULTS The overall average methylation level of WNT3A was significant higher in NSCL/P cases as compared to controls. The risk for NSCL/P was increased by 1.90-fold with hypermethylation of WNT3A. Significant correlation was observed between concentrations of Pb in umbilical cord and methylation level of WNT3A. The hypermethylation of WNT3A had a mediating effect by 9.32% of total effect of Pb on NSCL/P risk. Gender-specific association between WNT3A methylation and NSCL/P was observed in male fetuses, and the percentage of the mediating effect increased to 14.28%. Animal experiment of mice showed that maternal oral exposure to lead acetate may result in cleft palate in offspring. CONCLUSION Hypermethylation of WNT3A was associated with the risk for NSCL/P and may be partly explain the association between exposure to Pb and risk for NSCL/P. The teratogenic and fetotoxic effects of Pb were found in mice.

Abstract
Objectives: Nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (NSOFCs) are the most common craniofacial malformations observed across the globe. They are classified into three types: (a) cleft palate, (b) cleft lip, and (c) cleft lip and palate. To identify the potential candidate genes contributing to polygenic diseases such as NSOFC, linkage analyses, genome-wide association studies, and genomic rearrangements can be used. Genomic analyses, based on massively parallel next-generation sequencing technologies, play a vital role in deciphering the genetic bases of NSOFCs. Materials and Methods: In this study, whole exome sequencing was employed to detect genes that likely contributed to the NSOFC phenotype in a consanguineous Saudi family. Results: The exome analysis revealed NRP1 (rs35320960) as one potential candidate gene that is involved in bone differentiation. The RPL27A gene (rs199996172), which plays a crucial role in ribosome biogenesis, also passed all filters to serve as a candidate gene for NSOFC in this family. Rare variants are situated within the 5' UTR of these two genes. Conclusion: The study suggests that rare variants in NRP1 and RPL27A may be associated with NSOFC disease etiology.

Identification of a Novel Variant of ARHGAP29 in a Chinese Family with Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip and Palate. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:8790531. [PMID: 33150183 PMCID: PMC7603555 DOI: 10.1155/2020/8790531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2020] [Revised: 09/27/2020] [Accepted: 09/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Background Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is the most common facial birth defect, with a worldwide incidence of 1 in 700-1000 live births. CL/P can be divided into syndromic CL/P (SCL/P) and nonsyndromic CL/P (NSCL/P). Genetic factors are an important component to the etiology of NSCL/P. ARHGAP29, one of the NSCL/P disease-causing genes, mediates the cyclical regulation of small GTP binding proteins such as RhoA and plays an essential role in cellular shape, proliferation, and craniofacial development. Methods The present study investigated a Chinese family with NSCL/P and explored potential pathogenic variants using whole-exome sequencing (WES). Variants were screened and filtered through bioinformatic analysis and prediction of variant pathogenicity. Cosegregation was subsequently conducted. Results We identified a novel heterozygous missense variant of ARHGAP29 (c.2615C > T, p.A872V) in a Chinese pedigree with NSCL/P. Conclusion We detected the disease-causing variant in this NSCL/P family. Our identification expands the genetic spectrum of ARHGAP29 and contributes to novel approaches to the genetic diagnosis and counseling of CL/P families.

Abstract
Cleft alveolar is often accompanied by non-syndromic cleft lip with/without palate (NSCL/P), which could seriously affect the growth and development of the maxilla. In this study, we assessed the associations between 47 susceptible SNPs from previous GWASs of NSCL/P and cleft alveolar in Western Han Chinese population. We recruited 228 trios of NSCL/P with cleft alveolar (156 males and 72 females). The 47 SNPs were genotyped by SNPscan method; Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test, TDT and parent-of-origin effects were analyzed by PLINK; linkage disequilibrium analysis was conducted by Haploview software. TDT analysis revealed FOXE1 rs894673 (P = 0.0071, ORtransmission = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.16-0.78) and rs3758249 (P = 0.0071, ORtransmission = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.16-0.78) were associated with NSCL/P accompanied cleft alveolar bone. Parent-of-origin effect analysis revealed a paternal special under-transmission of allele A at rs894673 (P = 0.039), allele T at rs3759249 (P = 0.039), and allele T at rs4460498 (P = 0.039) of FOXE1. Allele A at rs987525 showed a significant paternal over-transmission (P = 0.0077). Pairwise LD analysis showed strong LD among rs894673, rs3759249 and rs4460498 (r2 > 0.95, D' = 1). To conclude, our findings indicated that FOXE1 is the susceptible gene for cleft alveolar accompanied by NSCL/P.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate is one of the most common birth malformations. TP63 and GREM1 were recently reported to be associated with NSCL/P. However, there were few studies focused on their associations in non-syndromic cleft lip only (NSCLO). DESIGN Initial screening and replication in large cohorts were used to locate the susceptible SNPs of TP63 and GREM1. Firstly, variations were screened among 192 NSCLO cases by the Sanger sequencing. Then, we selected five associated SNPs in initial screening phase and replicated among 1,006 NSCLO cases and 1,823 normal controls. RESULTS Initial chi-square test showed that rs7653848, rs7624324, rs6790167, and rs1345186 in TP63 and rs2280738 in GREM1 achieved statistical significance (p < .05); the subsequent replication analysis showed that rs1345186 was specifically significant in right-side cleft lip (RCL; p = .017, OR = 1.33, and 95% CI: 1.05-1.69). CONCLUSION This study firstly used the subphenotype of cleft lip samples to verify the association between TP63 and GREM1, which indicated that TP63 is a promising susceptible gene for RCL in Chinese population. And further confirmed the different etiology in the right-sided cleft lip, left-sided cleft lip, and bilateral cleft lip of NSCLO. This will give new reference for the future research and genetic counseling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), namely, rs4691383 and rs7667857, in the platelet-derived growth factor-C (PDGF-C) gene, the genotypes, environmental exposure factors, and nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in Western Chinese population. METHODS A total of 268 case-parent trios were selected, and two SNPs (rs4691383 andrs7667857) were genotyped by using polymerase chain reaction and restriction enzyme fragment length polymorphic method and direct sequencing method. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, linkage disequilibrium test, transmission disequilibrium test, and haplotype analysis were conducted to analyze the data. Meanwhile, the questionnaires on the epidemiology of cleft lip and palate filled by the included samples were collected, and the interaction between the genotypes of the two SNPs and environmental exposure factors was assessed by conditional logistic regression. RESULTS The A allele at rs4691383 and the G allele at rs7667857 of PDGF-C gene were over-transmitted for NSCL/P (P<0.05). No interaction effect was observed between the three environmental exposure factors (history of smoking/passive smoking, folic acid supplementation, and long-term inhalation of harmful environmental gases) and the PDGF-C genotypes among NSCL/P (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The rs4691383 and rs7667857 at PDGF-C gene are closely related to the occurrence of NSCL/P in Western Chinese population. However, the interaction between environmental exposure factors and PDGF-C genotypes is not obvious in the occurrence of NSCL/P.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present study evaluated the effect of the nursing care provided to the mothers of the infants born with a cleft lip and palate (CLP) until the time of cleft palate (CP) repair surgery, on maternal attachment and self-efficacy. DESIGN AND METHODS The present study was designed as a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test control group design. The study included 32 mothers whose infants were born with CLP and had undergone CL repair surgery. Nursing care was provided to the mothers and the infants included in the study group through a total of seven home visits over a period of nine weeks. The data for the study were collected using a socio-demographic form, a home-care needs evaluation form, the Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI), and the Parental Self-Efficacy Scale (PSE). RESULTS The scores for the mothers in the intervention group increased as the visits progressed, and it was observed that by the end of the ninth week, the difference between the mothers in the intervention group and those in the control group in terms of post-test MAI and PSE had become statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Providing nine weeks of home-based nursing care to the mothers and the infants has the potential of reducing the problems experienced by the mothers of infants born with CLP. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Obtaining a better understanding of the barriers to the nursing care provided to the mothers of the infants born with CLP in-home setting would contribute immensely to the development of appropriate nursing-care practices.

Abstract
Nonsyndromic clefts of the lip and palate are common birth defects resulting from gene-gene and gene-environment interactions. Mutations in human MSX1 have been linked to orofacial clefting and we show here that Msx1 deficiency causes a growth defect of the medial nasal process (Mnp) in mouse embryos. Although this defect alone does not disrupt lip formation, Msx1-deficient embryos develop a cleft lip when the mother is transiently exposed to reduced oxygen levels or to phenytoin, a drug known to cause embryonic hypoxia. In the absence of interacting environmental factors, the Mnp growth defect caused by Msx1 deficiency is modified by a Pax9-dependent 'morphogenetic regulation', which modulates Mnp shape, rescues lip formation and involves a localized abrogation of Bmp4-mediated repression of Pax9 Analyses of GWAS data revealed a genome-wide significant association of a Gene Ontology morphogenesis term (including assigned roles for MSX1, MSX2, PAX9, BMP4 and GREM1) specifically for nonsyndromic cleft lip with cleft palate. Our data indicate that MSX1 mutations could increase the risk for cleft lip formation by interacting with an impaired morphogenetic regulation that adjusts Mnp shape, or through interactions that inhibit Mnp growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous systematic reviews have reported that cesarean birth is associated with reduced rate of subsequent fertility. However, other common mode of delivery was poorly understood. The aim of this study was to systematically investigate the subsequent fertility in patients having different modes of non-spontaneous vaginal delivery, if compared to normal vaginal delivery. STUDY DESIGNS Medline (via PubMed), Web of Science, Embase (via Dialog), CENTRAL (via Cochrane Library), ScienceDirect (via Elsevier) and ClinicalTrial.gov were searched up to October 2019, without language restrictions in this systematic review and meta-analysis. Articles assessing the mode of delivery and subsequent fertility were included. Quality assessment was evaluated using the nine-point Newcastle Ottawa Scale by two independent reviewers. RESULTS Twenty-one articles, including 4,423,544 women of reproductive age, were included. Results showed that women had a 9% (RR: 0.91 [95 %CI 0.88, 0.94]) lower probability of subsequent fertility in primary cesarean birth group, compared with spontaneous vaginal delivery. Further analysis discovered that a 13 % (0.87, [0.85, 0.90]) lower probability of subsequent fertility was observed in women delivered by emergency cesarean birth, a 14 % (0.86, [0.82, 0.91) lower probability by elective cesarean birth, a 39 % (0.61, [0.57, 0.66]) by maternal-requested cesarean birth, and a 2% (0.98, [0.97, 1.00]) by instrumental vaginal delivery. CONCLUSIONS Non-spontaneous vaginal delivery may be associated with lower probability of subsequent fertility. Decision makers and obstetricians should be cautious when choosing the mode of delivery.

Abstract
Nonsyndromic orofacial cleft (NSOFC) is a severe birth defect that occurs early in embryonic development and includes the subtypes cleft palate only (CPO), cleft lip only (CLO) and cleft lip with cleft palate (CLP). Given a lack of specific genetic factor analysis for CPO and CLO, the present study aimed to dissect the landscape of genetic factors underlying the pathogenesis of these two subtypes using 6,986 cases and 10,165 controls. By combining a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for specific subtypes of CPO and CLO, as well as functional gene network and ontology pathway analysis, we identified 18 genes/loci that surpassed genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10−8) responsible for NSOFC, including nine for CPO, seven for CLO, two for both conditions and four that contribute to the CLP subtype. Among these 18 genes/loci, 14 are novel and identified in this study and 12 contain developmental transcription factors (TFs), suggesting that TFs are the key factors for the pathogenesis of NSOFC subtypes. Interestingly, we observed an opposite effect of the genetic variants in the IRF6 gene for CPO and CLO. Moreover, the gene expression dosage effect of IRF6 with two different alleles at the same single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) plays important roles in driving CPO or CLO. In addition, PAX9 is a key TF for CPO. Our findings define subtypes of NSOFC using genetic factors and their functional ontologies and provide a clue to improve their diagnosis and treatment in the future. Although GWAS have discovered 43 genes/loci associated with NSOFC, most previous studies used mixed samples of CL/P subtypes rather than CPO or CLO separately. Our findings define the CPO and CLO subtypes using genetic factors and their functional ontologies based on CPO and CLO GWAS data. In this study, we identified 18 genes/loci that contribute to CPO, CLO or CLP. Fourteen of them are novel and identified, and 12 contain developmental transcription factors (TFs), suggesting that TFs are the key factors for the pathogenesis of NSOFC subtypes. We observed an opposite effect in the strongest associated locus IRF6 for CPO and CLO; this information was omitted by previous CL/P GWAS. Furthermore, we reveal that the gene expression dosage of IRF6 plays important roles in driving CPO or CLO. In addition, we found that PAX9 is a strong genetic factor for CPO. These results suggest that transcription factors are the key genetic reason for the pathogenesis of NSOFC subtypes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL/P) is one of the most common congenital birth defects affected by both gene and environmental modifiers. Recent studies revealed that KLF4 played an important role during craniofacial development. This study aimed to evaluate the association between KLF4 gene variations and NSCL/P in a Western Han Chinese population. METHODS In this study, 159 unrelated cases with NSCL/P were recruited. We used targeted region sequencing around KLF4 gene, and single variation association analysis and gene-based burden analysis were then performed. RESULTS 116 SNPs and 30 indels were found. Burden analysis showed no statistical significance. Association analysis results showed rs6477574 (P = 0.014 and OR = 1.58), rs112488950 (P = 0.0024 and OR = 1.98) and rs111357138 (P = 0.0025 and OR = 1.96) were associated with NSCL/P. CONCLUSIONS The results revealed that KLF4 variations were associated with NSCL/P in a Western Han Chinese population, providing a new reference for future genetic study of NSCL/P.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are ubiquitous in the environment, have been found to cause orofacial clefts (OFCs) in mouse model. However, evidence from the human study with markers of intrauterine exposure is absent. We explored the associations between the levels of sixteen PAHs in umbilical cord tissue and risk for OFCs using multivariable logistic models and Bayesian Kernel Machine Regression (BKMR). This case-control study included 89 OFC cases and 129 controls without congenital malformations. Concentrations of PAHs in umbilical cord tissue were detected using gas chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry. The median levels of ΣPAHs, Σlow molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and Σhigh molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were all higher in cases of total OFCs and its subtypes than in controls, although the differences were not statistically significant. No statistical associations between levels of PAHs in umbilical cord tissue and risk for OFCs were observed in either multivariable logistic models or BKMR models. Maternal using a stove for heating and lower frequency of ventilation in the bedroom/living room, and consumptions of fresh green vegetables were positively correlated with levels of PAHs in umbilical cord. In conclusion, our results did not suggest that in utero exposure to PAHs were associated with the risk for OFCs, in estimating whether single effect of PAHs or joint effects of multiple PAHs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Non-syndromic oral cleft (NSOC) is one of the most common multifactorial birth defects. A previous animal study showed PBX1 gene knockout mice consequently exhibited complete cleft lip/palate (CL/P). However, little is known about the association between PBX1 and NSOC in humans. This study investigated the role of the PBX1 gene in NSOC in the Han Chinese population. METHODS In all, 287 NSOCs were recruited for this study. First, exons in the PBX1 gene were sequenced among 50 non-syndromic cleft lip and palate cases to screen for variations by the Sanger sequencing method. Then, we selected four SNPs to replicate among 237 NSOC trios and analyzed the data by using TDT and parent of origin effect methods. RESULTS Exon sequencing identified six variants of the PBX1 gene. Among them, four variants were common variants. TDT analysis revealed allele G at rs2275558 and allele T at rs3835581 were over-transmitted in NSCL/P (P=0.039 and 0.038, respectively), which could increase the risk for NSCL/P. Parent of origin effect analysis indicated that allele G at rs2275558 was paternally over-transmitted for NSCL/P (P=0.0091). CONCLUSION This is the first report that the PBX1 gene is associated with NSCL/P, which indicates that it is a promising candidate gene for NSCL/P.

Abstract
Preterm birth continues to be an important problem in modern obstetrics and a large public health concern and is related to increased risk for neonatal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the data in the literature to determine the relationships between mode of delivery (cesarean section and vaginal birth) in the first pregnancy and the risk of subsequent preterm birth from a multi-year population based cohorts (PROSPERO registration number: 42018090788). Five electronic databases were searched. Observational studies that provided mode of delivery and subsequent preterm birth were eligible. Ten cohort studies, involving 10333501 women, were included in this study. Compared with vaginal delivery, women delivering by previous cesarean section had a significantly higher risk of preterm birth in subsequent births (RR 1.10, 95%CI 1.01-1.20). After adjusting confounding factors, there was still statistical significance (aRR 1.12, 95%CI 1.01-1.24). However, both before and after adjustment, there was no difference among very preterm birth (RR 1.14, 95%CI 0.90-1.43; aRR 1.16, 95%CI 0.80-1.68; respectively). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first systematic review and meta-analysis that suggests previous cesarean section could increase the risk of preterm birth in subsequent pregnancies. The result could provide policy makers, clinicians, and expectant parents to reduce the occurrence of unnecessary cesarean section.

Abstract
PURPOSE Based on Q methodology, this study investigated the motivation of orthodontic treatment for patients and their parents. Through investigation, this paper attempts to explore the motivational factors of CLP and NON-CLP children and their parents, which are different or general. PATIENTS AND METHODS Q methodology involves 4 phases. (1) Interviews of CLP (N=5), NON-CLP (N=5) patients generated 30 statements (Q-set 1) and CLP (N=5), NON-CLP (N=5) patients' parents produced 36 statements (Q-set 2) about different reasons to pursue orthodontic care. (2) P-set: recruitment participants. The sample comprised 40 CLP patients (G1) and 40 NON-CLP patients (G2) aged 9-16 years, 40 CLP patients' parents (G3) and 40 NON-CLP patients' parents (G4) wanting their children to have orthodontic treatment. (3) Q-sort: 4 groups ranked statements in order of comparative significance using enforced distribution grids (G1, G2 ranked Q-set 1; G3, G4 ranked Q-set 2). (4) Analysis: using the PQMehtod 2.35 vision to analyze data. RESULTS Three factors in each group were identified as representing the most widespread views of the majority of the participants, described as G1: (1) aesthetics, (2) preparation for other oral treatments, (3) timely. G2: (1) admiration of others, aesthetics, (2) oral function, (3) oral hygiene and improvement of smile. G3: (1) worrying about the future of children, parents' responsibilities, children's feelings; (2) mental health, timely; (3) parents' responsibilities, ready for treatment. G4: (1) aesthetics, children's will; (2) future problems, timely; (3) timely, parents' responsibility and no need to worry about physical problems. CONCLUSION CLP and NON-CLP patients and parents have different orthodontic treatment motives, yet, they still shared 3 global motivation themes, respectively. Consideration of these motives may help clinicians develop their treatment discussions with patients and parents, which could consequently improve their cooperation and may achieve a more satisfactory outcome.

Abstract
Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is a complex disorder, and it results from both of the genetic modifiers and environmental factors, with genetic modifiers contributes to it more than environmental factors. GWASs made great progress in identifying the candidate genes for NSCL/P, but the findings need to be replicated in other populations. In this study, we selected eleven SNPs from recent GWASs and GWAS meta-analysis to investigate their associations among 308 NSCL/P trios (134 non-syndromic cleft lip only (NSCLO) trios and 174 non-syndromic cleft lip with cleft palate (NSCLP) trios) from Han Chinese population. All SNPs were genotyped using SNPscan method and analyzed the data with FBAT, PLINK, and R package. Allelic TDT analysis showed that allele A at rs12543318 was associated with NSCLO trios (P = .0032, OR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.39-0.83), and parent-of-origin effect analysis indicated that allele A at rs12543318 was significantly maternally undertransmitted among NSCLO (P = .0046), which implied the potential influence of genomic imprinting; global TDT further confirmed this association. Individual genotypic TDT showed homozygote C/C at rs12543318 was overtransmitted among NSCLO (Z = 3.79, P = .00015) and NSCL/P groups (Z = 3.83, P = .00013), which indicated that it could increase the risk to have cleft babies. Our findings indicated that rs12543318 was associated with NSCLO from Western Han Chinese population, which will give new scientific evidence for later researches in the etiology of NSOCs.
