15q11.2 microdeletion – Seven new patients with delayed development and/or behavioural problems

von der Lippe, C., Rustad, C., Heimdal, K., Rødningen, O.K.·2011·European Journal of Medical Genetics

Abstract

15q11.2 microdeletion has been suggested as a new microdeletion syndrome and several patients have been described in the literature. We report seven new patients belonging to six families, age 9-24 years old, with a 350 kb 15q11.2 deletion of the four highly conserved genes (TUBGCP5, NIPA1, NIPA2 and CYFIP1) earlier reported. All our patients had some degree of learning difficulties, delayed development and/or behavioural problems. Common dysmorphic features and congenital malformations were not characteristics of our patients. The deletion was inherited from a mildly affected parent in all cases tested (5/6 families available for testing both parents). These seven new cases confirm some of the features earlier reported to be associated with 15q11.2 deletion, and help to further delineate the phenotype associated with 15q11.2 deletion.

  • 10/29 (35%) of individuals with the 15q11.2 BP1-BP2 microdeletion inherited their deletion from an abnormal parent.

    “The review of literature from six published reports summarized by Cafferkey et al. [18] regarding information on the inheritance of the 15q11.2 BP1–BP2 microdeletion indicates that 22/43 (51%) of individuals with the microdeletion, where parental data were available, inherited their deletion from an apparently healthy parent while 10/29 (35%) of individuals inherited their deletion from an abnorma”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
