AbstractOtospondylomegaepiphyseal dysplasia (OSMED) is an inherited autosomal dominant and recessive skeletal dysplasia caused by both heterozygous and homozygous pathogenic variants in COL11A2 encoding the α2(XI) collagen chains, a part of type XI collagen. Here, we describe a 2-year-old girl presenting from birth with a phenotype suggestive of OSMED. On whole exome sequence analysis of the family via commercially available methods, we detected two novel heterozygous pathogenic variants in the proband. In addition, we reviewed the phenotype of autosomal recessive OSMED cases with COL11A2 pathogenic variants reported to date and quantitatively highlighted the phenotypic spectrum.

In Italy in 1998, hepatitis A virus (HAV) was responsible for an infectious disease transmitted by contaminated bivalve molluscs. To determine the presence of HAV in the bivalves collected during a 1-year follow-up study, hepatitis A RNA was extracted and amplified by a nested reverse transcriptase–PCR method overlapping the VP1/2A region. The HAV genome was detected in 24 (14.1%) of 170 samples: 19 clams (Tapes decussates and Tapes semidecussatus), 1 oyster (Crossostea gigas), and 4 mussels (Mytillus galloprovincialis). Eleven positive samples were collected from marketing areas, and 13 positive samples were collected from growing areas. Seventeen of the 24 positive samples had been taken from domestic products, and 7 had been imported. Sequence analysis showed the presence of genotypes IA and IB. Our results suggest significant presence of HAV in bivalves from both marketing (public consumption) and environmental (growing) areas.

ObjectiveTo establish molecular diagnosis for a family with a complicated form of autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia with intellectual disability, cognitive decline, psychosis, peripheral neuropathy, upward gaze palsy, and thin corpus callosum (TCC).MethodsPhysical examinations, laboratory tests, structural neuroimaging studies, and exome sequence analysis were carried out.ResultsThe 3 patients exhibited intellectual disability and progressive intellectual decline accompanied by psychiatric symptoms. Gait difficulty with spasticity and pyramidal weakness appeared at the ages of 20s–30s. Brain MRI revealed TCC with atrophic changes in the frontotemporal lobes, caudate nuclei, and cerebellum. Exome sequence analysis revealed a novel homozygous c.2654C>A (p. Ala885Asp) variant in the ATP13A2, a gene responsible for a complicated form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG78), Kufor-Rakeb syndrome, and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. The predominant clinical presentations of the patients include progressive intellectual disability and gait difficulty with spasticity and pyramidal weakness, consistent with the diagnosis of SPG78. Of note, prominent psychiatric symptoms and extrapyramidal signs including rigidity, dystonia, and involuntary movements preceded the spastic paraparesis.ConclusionsOur study further broadens the clinical spectrum associated with ATP13A2 mutations.

Abstract We describe the follow-up investigation of an outbreak of endophthalmitis due to Burkholderia contaminans following cataract surgery in a single clinic. Whole-genome sequence analysis of bacteria recovered from affected patients and the clinic identified the clinic’s ventilation system as the source of infection.
