Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 4 (COXPD4) related to TUFM gene variation, in order to improve clinicians′ understanding of the disease. Methods:A case of COXPD4 with cystic leukodystrophy admitted to the Children′s Hospital of Zhengzhou University in June 2021 was taken as the study subject, and her clinical characteristics and genetic testing results were retrospectively analyzed. The "combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 4" " TUFM gene" "cystic leukodystrophy" "combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 4" "COXPD 4" " TUFM" and "cystic leukodystrophy" were used as keywords, and the documents on COXPD4 related to TUFM gene mutations were reviewed from Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, CNKI, PubMed Document Database, and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) until August 2021. The COXPD4 patients that have been reported internationally were analyzed for clinical features and variant types. Results:The patient was a 2-month-old girl with clinical manifestations of delayed development and progressive aggravation, elevated lactic acid in serum and cerebrospinal fluid, and diffuse white matter dysplasia with multiple cystic lesions in cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Whole exome sequencing showed TUFM gene complex heterozygous variants c.684_684+4delGGTGA and c.1105C>T, which had not been reported in the past. A total of 5 cases of COXPD4 were reported in 4 English literatures. Together with 1 case in this study, there were 4 cases with detailed clinical history data, including 1 male and 3 females. The clinical manifestations were severe early-onset lactic acidosis and developmental lag, and 3 cases were accompanied by progressive infantile encephalopathy. Among them, 3 cases underwent head MRI examination, all of which showed diffuse white matter signal with multiple cystic lesions, 2 cases with basal ganglia involvement and multiple cerebellar gyri deformity. Genetic test indicated different types of TUFM gene variation. Conclusions:COXPD4 is a rare hereditary mitochondrial disease. For cases with COXPD4 clinical and imaging features, TUFM gene mutations can be screened first.

ObjectiveTo investigate the changes in gut microbiota after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in cirrhotic patients with mild hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) in different prognosis groups. MethodsA total of 28 MHE cirrhotic patients who were hospitalized and underwent TIPS in Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases from July 2016 to July 2017 were enrolled. Fecal samples and related clinical data were collected on days 1-3 before surgery and at 1 month after surgery. According to the prognosis after surgery, the patients were divided into none-hepatic encephalopathy (HE) group with 8 patients, MHE group with 12 patients, and overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) group with 8 patients. Fecal samples were analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing to obtain the relative abundance of gut microbiota, and SPSS and R packages were used to analyze the biodiversity, postoperative changes, and differences in such changes of gut microbiota at the genus level between groups. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups; the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of continuous data between three groups; the Bonferroni method was used for multiple comparisons of multiple samples; the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for comparison before and after surgery within each group. For microbiome beta-diversity analyses, a principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) was performed based on Bray-Curtis distance matrix, and the Adonis method (PerMANOVA) was used for comparison between groups. ResultsPCoA based on Bray-Curtis distance matrix showed that only the MHE group had a significant change in beta diversity after surgery (F=2.71, P=0.049). After surgery, the non-HE group had significant increases in the abundance of the native flora Dialister, Coprococcus, Ruminococcaceae_uncultured, Flavonifractor, and Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 (Z=2.521, 2.1, 2.1, 2.1, and 1.96, all P<0.05); the MHE group had significant reductions in the abundance of the harmful flora Granulicatella(Z=2.521,P=0.012), Enterococcus(Z=2.51,P=0.012), Streptococcus(Z=2.432,P=0.015), and Rothia(Z=2.001,P=0.045) and significant increases in the abundance of Veillonella(Z=2.353,P=0.019) and Megasphaera(Z=1.955,P=0.05); the OHE group only had a significant increase in the abundance of Veillonella after surgery (Z=2.38, P=0.017). There was a significant difference in the change in gut microbiota (postoperative abundance/preoperative abundance) between the non-HE group, the MHE group, and the OHE group [2.00 (1.11-91.61) vs 1.21 (0.26-679) vs 0.09 (0.01-0.92), χ2=6.249, P=0.043]. ConclusionThere is a significant difference in the change in gut microbiota after TIPS between patients with different prognoses, and the increase in the abundance of native flora may have a certain influence on the remission of MHE.

Objective:To report a rare case of early onset epileptic encephalopathy caused by YWHAG gene mutation, and discuss the clinical and genetic characteristics as well as the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the disease.Methods:Clinical data of the patient with YWHAG gene deficiency from Department of Neurology, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University were collected in January 2018. The whole exome sequencing was performed on the core members of the family, and the characteristics of gene mutations were analyzed.Results:The proband is a girl, three years and 10 months old, presented to the outpatient department of neurology with a history of six-month intermittent convulsions, manifested as epilepsy seizures, mental retardation, motor delay and gait instability, ataxia. The brain magnetic resonance imaging showed myelinated dysplasia, and long-term video electroencephalogram (EEG) showed extensive 1.5-3.0 Hz slow spikes, and multiple spikes during sleep. During the monitoring, the children had clinical seizures and abnormal EEG discharges, indicating that myoclonus was accompanied by atypical absence of consciousness. Whole exome sequencing on the proband detected a de novo mutation c.169C>T (p.Arg57Cys) in YWHAG gene. According to American College of Medical Genetics guidelines (2015), the mutation was considered potentially pathogenic.Conclusion:Early epileptic encephalopathy caused by YWHAG gene mutation is very rare, and the variation of YWHAG gene c.169C>T is the possible pathogenic variation of the genetic cause of early onset epileptic encephalopathy in the proband.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and gene mutation of seven cases of CDKL5 gene related early-onset epileptic encephalopathy diagnosed by next-generation sequencing.Methods:The clinical data of children with early-onset epileptic encephalopathy from February 2018 to December 2019 in the Department of Neurology, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. The whole exome sequencing method was used to analyze the entire exome of the proband, and seven cases of CDKL5 gene mutation positive were screened out, and Sanger sequencing verification on family members was performed to identify the source and the characteristics of gene mutations were analyzed.Results:Among the seven children diagnosed with CDKL5 gene related early-onset epileptic encephalopathy, the ratio of male to female was 2∶5, and the age of onset was 15 days to five months of birth. The clinical phenotypes all included different degrees of developmental delay and repeated seizures, which were manifested as general seizures, myoclonic seizures, convulsive seizures or focal seizures; the outcome of use of antiepileptic drugs to control seizures was poor, and some applications of ketogenic diet had better effects. CDKL5 gene mutation sites were all denovo mutations, including NM_003159: c.772_776del (p.K258Efs *10) frameshift mutation, NM_003159.2 (exon: 9-15) heterozygous deletion, CDKL5 hemizygous deletion, NM_003159: c.268 (exon5) G>T (p.E90 *, 941) and NM_003159: c.2578C>T (p.Q860 *, 171) nonsense mutation, NM_003159: c.211A>G (p.Asn71Asp) and NM_001323289: c.545T>C (p.L182P) missense mutation. Among them, c.772_776del (p.K258Efs *10), c.268 (exon5)G>T and c.2578C>T (p.Q860 *, 171) have not been reported. Conclusions:CDKL5 gene related early-onset epileptic encephalopathy is an early onset epilepsy, which is more common in women, and has different forms of seizures. The early electroencephalogram is characterized as severe abnormal brain discharge, and the disease progresses in various forms. There are no specific changes in head magnetic resonance imaging. Different gene mutation sites may lead to different phenotypes and prognostic differences. Many anti-epileptic treatments are ineffective, and ketogenic diets are effective for some patients.

Objective:To summarize the clinical features of a family of neurofibromatosis type I (NF1) and its NF1 gene mutation characteristics. Methods:The clinical data of a family of NF1 admitted to our hospital in May 2020 were collected. The proband was sequenced with NF1/ NF2 panel using second-generation sequencing. Sanger sequencing verification analysis was performed on the family members. The clinical characteristics of the proband and other family members were summarized and their gene mutations were analyzed. Results:The proband (V 2), a 1-year and 2-month old girl, had multiple Café au lait spots on the skin at birth, normal mental and motor development, and focal epileptic seizures in infancy. The father (IV 3), grandmother (III 2), and other 2 family members (II 2, I 2) in the family all had Café au lait spots or neurofibromatous changes without seizures. The mother's phenotype was normal. The proband had a heterozygous mutation in the NF1 gene, and the mutation site C.83-84delAG (P.N29Hfs*8) was a frameshift heterozygous mutation. After verification analysis by Sanger sequencing, the pathogenic genes of the father and grandmother were consistent with the proband, which was in line with the characteristics of heterozygous mutation in NF1 gene, dominant inheritance. Conclusion:NF1 is caused by NF1 gene mutation; the early clinical manifestations mostly include café-au-lait spots, and some have seizures; patients with multiple café-aulait spots with seizures should be diagnosed by genetic analysis as soon as possible.

Objective:To investigate the clinical phenotype and summarize the genetic characteristics of children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) diagnosed by next-generation sequencing.Methods:The clinical data of 12 children with NF1 who were admitted to the Department of Neurology of the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from December 2017 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The next-generation sequencing method was used to sequence the NF1 gene of the probands and the mutations were verified by PCR-Sanger sequencing.Results:Among the 12 children diagnosed with NF1 (male: female=11: 1), who aged from seven months to 11 years old, the main complaints were seizures and skin with café-au-lait spots. Five children were found with freckles in axillae, and two with cutaneous neurofibroma. Six cases had seizures, two children suffered spastic seizures, two with generalized tonic-clonic seizures, one with typical absence seizure, one with focal seizure, one case had severe headache and vomiting. Fortunately for the children with seizures, anti-epileptic drugs had a good prognosis. There were five mutation types detected in 12 cases, including one case of loss of overall heterozygosity in NF1 gene; three missense mutations: c.7867C>A (p.L2623I), c.7855C>A (p.L2619I) and c.7792C>A(p.L2598I); three frameshift mutations: c.3162delC(p.N1054Nfs *8), c.540dupA (p.Q181Tfs *20) and c.2027dupA(p.V679Pfs *21); three nonsense mutations: c.1467T>A(p.Y489X, 2351), c.1318C>T(p.R440X, 2400) and c.1411C>T(p.K471X, 2369); two splicing mutations: c.2326-2(IVS10)G>C and c.1186-1(IVS10)G>C. Nine children were found with spontaneous mutations, one case was inherited from the father, and two cases were inherited from the mother. c.7867C>A(p.L2623I), c.7855C>A(p.L2619I), c.3162delC(p.N1054Nfs *8), c.1411C>T(p.K471X, 2369), c.2326-2(IVS10)G>C, c.1186-1(IVS10)G>C were unreported mutations in literature. Conclusions:NF1 is caused by NF1 gene mutation. The early clinical manifestations of children with NF1 defect presented with café-au-lait spots, and some suffered seizures. For patients with multiple café-au-lait spots and seizures in the clinic, genetic analysis should be performed as soon as possible to confirm the diagnosis.
