Patients present with a unique constellation of clinical signs described with the acronym CEDNIK: CErebral Dysgenesis, Neuropathy, Ichthyosis, and palmoplantar Keratoderma. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurodegenerative disease characterised by normal early development followed by childhood onset optic atrophy with progressive vision loss and eventually blindness, followed by progressive neurological decline that typically includes cerebellar ataxia, nystagmus, dorsal column dysfunction (decreased vibration and position sense), spastic paraplegia and finally tetraparesis. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurodegenerative disorder characterised by progressive psychomotor and cognitive regression (manifesting with gait ataxia, spasticity, loss of language, mild to severe intellectual disability, pyramidal and extrapyramidal signs and, frequently, development of tetraplegia or tetraparesis) associated with variable degrees of lipodystrophy, hepatomegaly, hypertriglyceridaemia and muscular hypertrophy. Hyperactivity, tremor and development of seizures may also be associated. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurodegenerative disorder characterised by ventriculomegaly and progressive, symmetrical atrophy of the cerebral cortex grey and white matter (sparing the midbrain, brainstem, cerebellum and infratentorial segments), manifesting in early infancy with acquired microcephaly, irritability, regression of developmental milestones, feeding difficulties, akathisia, exaggerated startle response, spasticity (fisted hands, stiff arms, leg scissoring), abnormal muscle tone with hypotonic trunk and hypertonic extremities, visual impairment and seizures. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by global developmental delay, borderline to severe intellectual disability, feeding difficulties, behavioural anomalies, vision anomalies and mild facial dysmorphism. Other associated features may include microcephaly, short stature, urogenital or palatal anomalies (e.g. cleft palate), minor cardiac defects, recurrent infections or hearing loss. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by global developmental delay, congenital heart defects, generalised hypertrichosis and dysmorphic facial features, most commonly triangular face, thick arched eyebrows, widely spaced eyes, posteriorly rotated low set ears, depressed nasal bridge, broad nasal root and tip, and pointed chin. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurodevelopmental disorder with primordial microcephaly characterised by primary microcephaly, moderate to severe intellectual disability, and global developmental delay. Variable brain malformations are common ranging from simplified gyration, to cortical malformations such as pachygyria, polymicrogyria, reduced sulcation and midline defects. Craniofacial dysmorphism (e.g. sloping forehead, high and broad nasal bridge) are related to the primary microcephaly. Short stature is frequently observed and may be severe. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurologic disease characterised by primary hyperaldosteronism presenting with early-onset, severe hypertension, hypokalaemia and neurological manifestations (including seizures, severe hypotonia, spasticity, cerebral palsy and profound developmental delay/intellectual disability). Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disease characterised by association of macrocephaly, dysmorphic facial features and psychomotor delay leading to intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. Facial dysmorphism may include frontal bossing, hypertelorism, midface hypoplasia, depressed nasal bridge, short nose, and long philtrum. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by childhood to adolescent onset of progressive myoclonus (which becomes very severe and results in major motor impediment) associated with infrequent tonic-clonic seizures, and, occasionally, ataxia. Learning disability prior to seizure onset and mild cognitive decline may be associated. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by childhood to adolescent-onset of action myoclonus, generalised tonic-clonic seizures, and slowly progressive, moderate to severe cognitive impairment that may lead to dementia. EEG reveals progressive slowing of background activity and epileptic abnormalities and brain MRI shows cerebellar and brainstem atrophy. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by childhood-onset severe myoclonic and tonic-clonic seizures and early-onset ataxia leading to severe gait disturbances associated with normal to slightly diminished cognition. Scoliosis, diffuse muscle atrophy and subcutaneous fat loss, as well as developmental delay, may be associated. Brain MRI may reveal complete agenesis of the corpus callosum, ventriculomegaly, interhemispheric cysts, and simplified gyration (frontally). Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by early-onset, progressive ataxia associated with myoclonic seizures (frequently associated with other seizure types such as generalised tonic-clonic, absence and drop attacks), scoliosis of variable severity, areflexia, elevated creatine kinase serum levels, and relative preservation of cognitive function until late in the disease course. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by horizontal gaze palsy, sensorineural deafness, central hypoventilation, developmental delay, and intellectual disability, described in persons of Athabascan American Indian heritage. Swallowing dysfunction, vocal cord paralysis, facial paresis, seizures, internal carotid artery, and cardiac outflow tract anomalies may be additionally observed. No dysmorphic facial features are associated. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by intrauterine growth retardation, failure to thrive, infantile onset of sensorineural deafness, severe global developmental delay or absent psychomotor development, paraplegia or quadriplegia with dystonia and pyramidal signs, microcephaly, ocular abnormalities (strabismus, optic atrophy), mildly dysmorphic features (deep-set eyes, prominent nasal bridge, micrognathia), seizures and abnormalities of brain morphology (hypomyelinating white matter changes, cerebral atrophy). Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by parkinsonian features (including resting or action tremor, cogwheel rigidity, hypomimia and bradykinesia) associated with variably penetrant spasticity, hyperactive deep tendon reflexes and Babinski sign. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurological disorder characterised by the association of slowly progressive spinocerebellar degeneration and corneal dystrophy, manifesting with bilateral corneal opacities (which lead to severe visual impairment), mild intellectual disability, ataxia, gait disturbances, and tremor. Additional manifestations include facial dysmorphism (i.e. triangular face, ptosis, low-set, posteriorly angulated ears, and micrognathia), as well as mild upper motor neuron involvement with hypertonia, lower limb hyperreflexia and extensor plantar responses. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1985. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare, genetic, neurometabolic disease characterised by early onset encephalopathy with progressive microcephaly, severe global development delay, seizures, hypotonia, feeding difficulties, variable cardiac abnormalities, and cataracts. Brain MRI shows distinct pattern with high T2 signal and restricted diffusion in the posterior limb of the internal capsule in combination with delayed myelination and progressive cerebral atrophy. The disease is typically fatal. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
