Clinical features of affected males with X linked ocular albinism.
Seventy four males affected by X linked ocular albinism (XLOA) from 19 pedigrees were examined to assess phenotypic variation and visual prognosis. Nystagmus was present in all cases except one. Best visual acuity ranged from 6/9 to 6/60; 79.7% could see 6/36 or better; most could read N5. Marked iris translucency and foveal hypoplasia were present in all cases. Posterior embryotoxon was presen...
متن کاملClinical and molecular characterization of females affected by X-linked retinoschisis.
BACKGROUND X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is a leading cause of juvenile macular degeneration associated with mutations in the RS1 gene. XLRS has a variable expressivity in males and shows no clinical phenotype in carrier females. DESIGN Clinical and molecular characterization of male and female individuals affected with XLRS in a consanguineous family. PARTICIPANTS Consanguineous Eastern Eu...
متن کاملVariable X-linked recessive hypopituitarism with evidence of gonadotropin deficiency in two pre-pubertal males.
Two half-brothers with short stature secondary to growth hormone deficiency and a family history implicating X-linked transmission were studied extensively for other endocrine abnormalities. The proband had a normal physical examination, except for small stature and small external genitalia. ACTH and TSH release were normal. LH and FSH responses during an i.v. GnRH test were severely blunted. H...
متن کاملStudy on KAL1 Gene Mutations in Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism Patients with X-Linked Recessive Inheritance
Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is a condition caused by low doses of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) leading to absence or incomplete sexual maturation. One of the disorders leading to IHH is Kallmann syndrome which is characterized by GnRH deficiency with anosmia or hyposmia. This disorder generally occurs as a hereditary syndrome with X-linked recessive inhe...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of the XLRS1 gene in 4 females affected with X-linked juvenile retinoschisis.
BACKGROUND X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) is the most common cause of juvenile macular degeneration in males. Because of its X-linked mode of transmission, the disease is rare in females. In this article, we describe a mutation screen conducted on a family in which 4 female patients affected with XLRS presented with an unusually severe phenotype. METHODS DNA was extracted from periphe...
