Clinical genetic studies have shown that loss of Nav1.7 function leads to the complete acute pain perception. The global deletion is reported lethal in mice, however, and mice with promoter-specific deletions suggested role transduction depends on precise form pain. We developed animal husbandry strategies overcame neonatal-lethal phenotype enabled construction a knockout mouse. Knockouts were anatomically normal, reached adulthood, had wholly analogous human congenital indifference (CIP):...
To evaluate the impact of pediatric sleep disturbances and night-time seizure monitoring children with rare epilepsy syndromes on quality mental health caregivers. A cross-sectional study was conducted using caregiver entered data from Rare Epilepsy Network Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System measures for fatigue, disturbance, sleep-related impairment, depression, anxiety, companionship, cognition. Logistic regression used to examine associations between risk factors...
Background: SLC13A5 Citrate Transporter Disorder is a rare pediatric neurodevelopmental disorder. Patients have epilepsy, developmental disability, and impaired mobility. While sleep disorders are common in children with disorders, abnormalities not been reported patients. Methods: Here, we assessed disturbances patients through caregiver surveys transgenic mouse model of deficiency. A total 26 were evaluated the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children three times over one-year span. wake...
To describe the neurodevelopment and quality of life in SLC13A5 (solute carrier family 13 member 5) citrate transporter disorder (developmental epileptic encephalopathy 25, DEE25), a rare genetic early infantile caused by deficiency sodium-citrate transporter, characterized heavy seizure burden neonatal period. We analyzed longitudinal neurodevelopmental outcomes from prospective natural history study DEE25, using standardized assessments Mullen Scales Early Learning, Peabody Developmental...
