Bruce Prader-Willis

My dumb way to remember Prader Willis syndrome. 

*****NOTE: THIS IS NOT THERAPEUTIC, THIS IS GROSS STEREOTYPING TO MEMORIZE A TEXTBOOK ANSWER. THERE ARE LOTS OF VARIATIONS OF PRESENTATIONS, REFERENCES TO OBESITY ARE NOT A JUDGEMENT CALL******

Pathophys: Usually caused by deletion of Paternal Chromosome 15. 

Clinical vignette: Usually male. Small hands and feet, SGA as infants, insatiable hunger as teens --> obesity, mild/mod developmental delay

So chunky kid, mildly delayed, with small hands and feet, loves to eat. . Remind you of anyone?

Now how to remember this Bruce is an example of Prader-Willis? Easy...Kid grew up to star in Die Hard!

Not always questioning if they are intersex but could also altersex, perisex, parsex or protosex.

Chromosomal rearrangements drive color evolution in stick insects

Understanding the material basis of adaptive evolution has been a central goal in biology dating back to at least the time of Darwin. One focus of current debates is whether adaptive evolution relies on many mutations with small and roughly equal effects, or is it driven by one or a few mutations that cause major changes in traits. Chromosomal rearrangements where large chunks of chromosomes are…

NT SCAN

It is done between 11 weeks to 13 weeks 6 days gestation. First trimester scan is important to 1. Look for major structural defects as the period of organ formation is complete by 11 weeks. 2. Markers for possibility of Chromosomal problems like Downs syndrome are screened for and risk assessment done. 3.The uterine blood flow in conjunction with maternal blood analytes are used to assess future risk of mother developing pregnancy induced hypertension, fetal growth restriction and adverse outcomes. The First trimester screening and evaluation has to be done strictly as per protocol.
