Phenotypes associated with the disease Liang-Wang syndrome (OMIM:618729):
- Strabismus (HP:0000486): A misalignment of the eyes so that the visual axes deviate from bifoveal fixation. The classification of strabismus may be based on a number of features including the relative position of the eyes, whether the deviation is latent or manifest, intermittent or constant, concomitant or otherwise and according to the age of onset and the relevance of any associated refractive error. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 3/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Megalocornea (HP:0000485): An enlargement of the cornea with normal clarity and function. Megalocornea is diagnosed with a horizontal corneal diameter of 12 mm or more at birth or 13 mm or more after two years of age. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Dystonia (HP:0001332): An abnormally increased muscular tone that causes fixed abnormal postures. There is a slow, intermittent twisting motion that leads to exaggerated turning and posture of the extremities and trunk. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/8. (PMID:31152168)
- Cerebellar atrophy (HP:0001272): Cerebellar atrophy is defined as a cerebellum with initially normal structures, in a posterior fossa with normal size, which displays enlarged fissures (interfolial spaces) in comparison to the foliae secondary to loss of tissue. Cerebellar atrophy implies irreversible loss of tissue and result from an ongoing progressive disease until a final stage is reached or a single injury, e.g. an intoxication or infectious event. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 3/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Generalized non-motor (absence) seizure (HP:0002121): A generalized non-motor (absence) seizure is a type of a type of dialeptic seizure that is of electrographically generalized onset. It is a generalized seizure characterized by an interruption of activities, a blank stare, and usually the person will be unresponsive when spoken to. Any ictal motor phenomena are minor in comparison to these non-motor features. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Ataxia (HP:0001251): Ataxia refers to impaired coordination of voluntary muscle movement. Cerebellar ataxia refers to ataxia due to dysfunction of the cerebellum. This causes a variety of elementary neurological deficits including asynergy (lack of coordination between muscles, limbs and joints), dysmetria (lack of ability to judge distances that can lead to under- or overshoot in grasping movements), and dysdiadochokinesia (inability to perform rapid movements requiring antagonizing muscle groups to be switched on and off repeatedly). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 3/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Infantile onset (HP:0003593): Onset of signs or symptoms of disease between 28 days to one year of life. Evidence: PCS. (PMID:31152168)
- Nystagmus (HP:0000639): Rhythmic, involuntary oscillations of one or both eyes related to abnormality in fixation, conjugate gaze, or vestibular mechanisms. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Hypertelorism (HP:0000316): Interpupillary distance more than 2 SD above the mean (alternatively, the appearance of an increased interpupillary distance or widely spaced eyes). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 4/5. (PMID:31152168)
- Thin upper lip vermilion (HP:0000219): Height of the vermilion of the upper lip in the midline more than 2 SD below the mean. Alternatively, an apparently reduced height of the vermilion of the upper lip in the frontal view (subjective). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 4/5. (PMID:31152168)
- Downturned corners of mouth (HP:0002714): A morphological abnormality of the mouth in which the angle of the mouth is downturned. The oral commissures are positioned inferior to the midline labial fissure. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 4/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Macroglossia (HP:0000158): Increased length and width of the tongue. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 3/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Macrodontia of permanent maxillary central incisor (HP:0000675): Increased size of the maxillary central secondary incisor tooth. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/3. (PMID:31152168)
- Gingival overgrowth (HP:0000212): Hyperplasia of the gingiva (that is, a thickening of the soft tissue overlying the alveolar ridge. The degree of thickening ranges from involvement of the interdental papillae alone to gingival overgrowth covering the entire tooth crown. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 3/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Laryngomalacia (HP:0001601): Laryngomalacia is a congenital abnormality of the laryngeal cartilage in which the cartilage is floppy and prolapses over the larynx during inspiration. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Diastema (HP:0000699): Increased space between two adjacent teeth in the same dental arch. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/3. (PMID:31152168)
- Wide mouth (HP:0000154): Distance between the oral commissures more than 2 SD above the mean. Alternatively, an apparently increased width of the oral aperture (subjective). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/5. (PMID:31152168)
- Axial hypotonia (HP:0008936): Muscular hypotonia (abnormally low muscle tone) affecting the musculature of the trunk. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 5/8. (PMID:31152168)
- Downslanted palpebral fissures (HP:0000494): The palpebral fissure inclination is more than two standard deviations below the mean. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 4/5. (PMID:31152168)
- Cerebral atrophy (HP:0002059): Atrophy (wasting, decrease in size of cells or tissue) affecting the cerebrum. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Delayed speech and language development (HP:0000750): A degree of language development that is significantly below the norm for a child of a specified age. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 7/7. (PMID:31152168)
- Wide nasal bridge (HP:0000431): Increased breadth of the nasal bridge (and with it, the nasal root). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 4/5. (PMID:31152168)
- Status epilepticus (HP:0002133): Status epilepticus is a type of prolonged seizure resulting either from the failure of the mechanisms responsible for seizure termination or from the initiation of mechanisms which lead to abnormally prolonged seizures (after time point t1). It is a condition that can have long-term consequences (after time point t2), including neuronal death, neuronal injury, and alteration of neuronal networks, depending on the type and duration of seizures. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/9. (PMID:31152168)
- Everted lower lip vermilion (HP:0000232): An abnormal configuration of the lower lip such that it is turned outward i.e., everted, with the Inner aspect of the lower lip vermilion (normally opposing the teeth) being visible in a frontal view. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/4. (PMID:31152168)
- Synophrys (HP:0000664): Meeting of the medial eyebrows in the midline. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/5. (PMID:31152168)
- Autosomal dominant inheritance (HP:0000006): A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele. Evidence: PCS. (PMID:31152168)
