Study of Infantile Lower Limb Malformations and Deformities
The skeletal defects of the lower limbs in pediatric age encompass various congenital and acquired conditions that alter bone structure. These alterations can be symmetrical or asymmetrical, with potential consequences such as deformities, short stature, and disability. These condictions may impact not only on the physical and the mental function …
The Heartland Study
The Heartland Study is a prospective, observational study that will enroll up to 2,600 pregnant participants across the Heartland States in the U.S.. The objective of the Heartland Study is to address major knowledge gaps concerning the health effects of herbicides on maternal and infant health. The study is being …
Genomic Sequencing and Personalized Treatment for Birth Defects in Neonatal Intensive Care Units
The purpose of study is to evaluate the benefits of using the Next Generation Sequencing Technology to diagnose birth defects and genetic diseases. The results from genomic sequencing can also significantly shorten the time of examination, improve the diagnosis rate, guide the clinical treatments. So the ultimate goal is individualized …
MRI Study of Musculoskeletal Function
This study will use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound images to study how muscles, tendons, and bones work together to cause motion. The procedure is one of several tools being developed to characterize normal and impaired musculoskeletal function, with the goal of developing improved methods of diagnosis and treatment …
National Cohort on Congenital Defects of the Eye
Congenital malformations of the eye comprise various developmental defects including microphthalmia, anophthalmia, aniridia, and anterior segment anomalies (such as Peters and Axenfeld-Rieger anomalies). These malformations are frequently associated with extra-ocular features and intellectual disability. However, little is known about visual outcome, frequency and consequences of extra-ocular features in patients. The …
InterNatIonal CHildhood Leukemia Microbiome/MEtabolome Cohort
Nutritional status is a measurable and modifiable factor that is often not considered during treatment and its clinical impact undervalued due in part to the heavy demands on clinicians in low and middle income countries to deliver therapy to large numbers of patients. The proposed study will create a biobank …
The China Neonatal Genomes Project
The project will carry out the genetic testing of 100000 neonates in the next 5 years. The aim of the project is to construct the Chinese neonatal genome database, establish the genetic testing standard of neonatal genetic diseases, and promote the industrialization of neonatal genetic disease gene testing, improve the …
National Evaluation of Patients With PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS)
Overgrowth syndromes are rare genetic disorders defined by tissue hypertrophy that can be either localized or generalized, affecting both latitudinal and longitudinal growth. The genes involved in overgrowth syndromes are not well characterized but mostly concern the PIK3CA/AKT/mTOR pathway, a major actor of cell growth and proliferation. The mutations are …
Long Term Follow-up After Embolization of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations
The time-frame and the follow-up elements after embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations are not standardized. Therefore, few reliable follow-up data are available for these patients. This study aims at collecting standardized long term data for these patients.
Fetal Ebstein Anomaly and Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia Registry
Ebstein anomaly and tricuspid valve dysplasia (EA/TVD) are rare congenital tricuspid valve malformations that carry among the highest mortality of all congenital heart disease diagnosed in utero. Despite the high mortality associated with severe EA/TVD in the fetus, it has only been studied retrospectively. By prospectively enrolling a cohort across …
