Specialty. Medical genetics. Distal 18q- is a genetic condition caused by a deletion of genetic material within one of the two copies of chromosome 18. [1] The deletion involves the distal section of 18q and typically extends to the tip of the long arm of chromosome 18. [2]
Individuals with ring 18 have one of their two copies of chromosome 18 that has formed the shape of a ring. The ring is formed when the caps on both the long arm (q) and the short arm (p) of one copy of chromosome 18 are lost and the new ends re-join to form the ring. Because the ring involves deletions of both the long arm (18q-) and the short ...
Proximal 18q-is a rare genetic condition caused by a deletion of genetic material within one of the two copies of chromosome 18. This deletion involves the proximal (near the centromere ) section of the long arm of chromosome 18 somewhere between 18q11.2 (18.9 Mb) to 18q21.1 (43.8 Mb). [1]
List of Tennessee area codes. Map of all Tennessee area codes. 423 - Chattanooga, Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol: Initially split from 615 in 1995. 615 and 629 (overlay) - Greater Nashville, including Murfreesboro, Mount Juliet: 615 initially split from 901 in a 1954 flash-cut. The 629 overlay for the entire area code was made effective in 2015.
1 in 40,000 to 42,000 births, females more affected than males. Klippel–Feil syndrome ( KFS ), also known as cervical vertebral fusion syndrome, is a rare congenital condition characterized by the abnormal fusion of any two of the seven bones in the neck ( cervical vertebrae ). [1] : 578 It can result in a limited ability to move the neck and ...
[8] [9] The 1q21.1 area contains 20–40 genes. There are two main ways that the copy number variations of 1q21.1 might appear: Type I, which spans roughly 1.8 Mb and includes only the distal end area of 1q21.1, and type 2, which extends proximally to include the thrombocytopenia absent radius syndrome region, span around 2.7 Mb.

Tethered cord syndrome ( TCS) refers to a group of neurological disorders that relate to malformations of the spinal cord. [ 1] Various forms include tight filum terminale, lipomeningomyelocele, split cord malformations ( diastematomyelia ), occult, dermal sinus tracts, and dermoids . All forms involve the pulling of the spinal cord at the base ...
Nager acrofacial dysostosis, also known as Nager syndrome, is a genetic disorder which displays several or all of the following characteristics: underdevelopment of the cheek and jaw area, down-sloping of the opening of the eyes, lack or absence of the lower eyelashes, kidney or stomach reflux, hammer toes, shortened soft palate, lack of development of the internal and external ear, possible ...
