Objetivo: Avaliar a saúde bucal e o crescimento craniofacial de pacientes pediátricos com Síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW), em comparação a crianças obesas não-sindrômicas. Métodos e resultados: Foram selecionadas 40 crianças com SPW e 40 controles não obesos com SPW, com idade de 10,9 anos (controle: 11,89 anos) e IMC 22,72 kg / m2 (controle 36,43 kg / m2). Foram avaliados o número de dentes, tipo de dentição, presença de cárie, sangramento gengival, má oclusão, acúmulo de placa bacteriana, erosão dentária, hiperplasia gengival e hipoplasia do esmalte. Os questionários avaliaram os hábitos de higiene bucal. Radiografias panorâmicas avaliaram o crescimento craniofacial. O grupo caso teve um número 6,8% menor de dentes em comparação ao grupo controle. Observou-se diferença estatisticamente significante no sangramento gengival, erosão dentária e hipoplasia do esmalte (p = 0,009; p = 0,02 ep = 0,006, respectivamente). Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante, observou-se um número aumentado de lesões de cárie e apinhamento dentário em crianças com SPW (p = 0,35 ep = 0,07). Ambos os grupos apresentaram má higiene dental. As crianças com SPW apresentaram crescimento aumentado do ramo mandibular com diferença estatisticamente significante (p = 0,03). Conclusão: As crianças com SPW apresentaram sangramento gengival estatisticamente aumentado e hipoplasia do esmalte do que os controles não obesos com SPW. Crianças com SPW podem apresentar crescimento vertical craniofacial aumentado. Mais investigações são necessárias para essa população.

- Abstract
Background: Prader Willi syndrome (PWS) and Angelman syndrome (AS) are neurodevelopmental disorders caused by deletions or methylation defects, making a loss of expression of imprinted genes located in the 15q11-q13 region, and these can be assessed by different cytogenomic and molecular techniques. We report a case series of patients with PWS and AS evaluated through the MS-MLPA assay. Clinical cases: We studied four patients with a clinical diagnosis of PWS and another with AS, evaluated as far as possible with karyotype and FISH, and with MS-MLPA assay for the 15q11-q13 region in all cases. In patients with PWS, neonatal hypotonia was the main reason for consultation and in three of them we identified a deletion of 15q11-q13 by MS-MLPA, also confirmed by FISH; and in the other one, an abnormal methylation pattern consistent with a maternal uniparental disomy. The patient with AS presented with a typical picture which led to the identification of a deletion in 15q11-q13 by MS-MLPA, also confirmed by FISH. Conclusions: The use of the MS-MLPA assay for the 15q11-q13 region was very useful for the diagnosis and identification of the genomic and epigenetic defects involved in either PWS and AS.

Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder caused by genetic anomalies that presents itself with a characteristic neurobehavioral phenotype. The aim of this project was to analyze interventions of neuropsychological rehabilitation that exist in PWS and to achieve it, a systematic search was done, resulting in a total of 14 articles with interventions for behavioral, cognitive and familial phenotypical characteristics. The studies were analyzed according to the focus of the intervention, models, specific procedures and results. Most studies used a compensation model and almost all applied behavioral modification techniques. The results suggest that techniques that use differential reinforcement and a more active involvement of the person with PWS and their family during intervention, are more successful.

BackgroundSchaaf-Yang syndrome (SYS) is caused by truncating mutations inMAGEL2, mapping to the Prader-Willi region (15q11-q13), with an observed phenotype partially overlapping that of Prader-Willi syndrome. MAGEL2 plays a role in retrograde transport and protein recycling regulation. Our aim is to contribute to the characterisation of SYS pathophysiology at clinical, genetic and molecular levels.MethodsWe performed an extensive phenotypic and mutational revision of previously reported patients with SYS. We analysed the secretion levels of amyloid-β 1–40 peptide (Aβ1-40) and performed targeted metabolomic and transcriptomic profiles in fibroblasts of patients with SYS (n=7) compared with controls (n=11). We also transfected cell lines with vectors encoding wild-type (WT) or mutated MAGEL2 to assess stability and subcellular localisation of the truncated protein.ResultsFunctional studies show significantly decreased levels of secreted Aβ1-40and intracellular glutamine in SYS fibroblasts compared with WT. We also identified 132 differentially expressed genes, including non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) such asHOTAIR, and many of them related to developmental processes and mitotic mechanisms. The truncated form of MAGEL2 displayed a stability similar to the WT but it was significantly switched to the nucleus, compared with a mainly cytoplasmic distribution of the WT MAGEL2. Based on the updated knowledge, we offer guidelines for the clinical management of patients with SYS.ConclusionA truncated MAGEL2 protein is stable and localises mainly in the nucleus, where it might exert a pathogenic neomorphic effect. Aβ1-40secretion levels andHOTAIRmRNA levels might be promising biomarkers for SYS. Our findings may improve SYS understanding and clinical management.

- Abstract
Se estudian las características cognitivas del Síndrome Prader-Willi (SPW). Se han evaluado 10 sujetos con el WISC-R y el ITPA. Se han dividido los sujetos en tres grupos mediante la técnica K-means, realizando posteriormente un análisis de Kruskal-Wallis para la caracterización de los tres grupos. Las características de estos grupos se acomodan a las descritas en la literatura para los tres grupos genéticos principales del SPW. El primer grupo presenta características similares a las descritas en los disómicos: buenas habilidades verbales, tanto expresivas como comprensivas, y rasgos dispráxicos. El segundo grupo se acomodan a las características de las delecciones cortas, con un perfil homogéneo de deficiencia mental ligera y predominio de las habilidades práxicas; sus habilidades lingüísticas comprensivas son superiores a las expresivas. El tercer grupo se acomoda a las características de la delección larga, con un nivel homogéneo dentro de deficiencia mental media y deterioro de las habilidades tanto expresivas como comprensivas. Se comentan algunos principios y estrategias para la intervención educativa. [ABSTRACT]This study analyses the cognitive characteristics of Prader-Willi Syndrome (SPW). Ten SPW patients with WISC-R and ITPA were evaluated. Subjects were divided into three groups using the K-means method and a Kruskal-Wallis analysis was later carried out, in order to characterize the three groups. The characteristics of these three groups are in accordance with those described in the literature for the three main genetic groups of SPW. The first group shows similar characteristics for those described in people with disomy: good verbal abilities, both expressive and comprehensive, as well as dispraxic features. The second group coincides with the characteristics of short deletions, with a homogeneous profile of slight mental retardation and a predominance of praxic abilities; their comprehensive linguistic abilities are higher than their expressive abili, Depto. de Psicología Experimental, Procesos Cognitivos y Logopedia, Fac. de Psicología, TRUE, pub

- Abstract
Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome is an uncommon urogenital anomaly defined by uterus didelphys, obstructed hemi-vagina and unilateral renal anomalies. The most common clinical presentation is dysmenorrhoea following menarche, but it can also present as pain and an abdominal mass. Prader-Willi syndrome is a rare neuroendocrine genetic syndrome. Hypothalamic dysfunction is common and pituitary hormone deficiencies including hypogonadism are prevalent. We report the case of a 33-year-old female with Prader-Willi syndrome who was referred to the Gynaecology clinic due to vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain. Abdominal ultrasound revealed a haematometra and haematocolpos and computed tomography showed a uterus malformation and a right uterine cavity occupation (hematometra) as well as right kidney agenesis. Vaginoscopy and hysteroscopy were performed under general anaesthesia, finding a right bulging vaginal septum and a normal left cervix and hemiuterus. Septotomy was performed with complete haematometrocolpos drainage. The association of the two syndromes remains unclear., (Copyright © 2024 SEEN and SED. Published by Elsevier España, S.L.U.

- Abstract
Objective: To carry out a review about Prader-Willi Syndrome based on the most recent data about the subject and to give recommendation for the general pediatricians for early diagnoses and follow-up. Data sources: Scientific articles in the PubMed and SciELO databases. The research was not limited to a specific time period and included all articles in such databases. Data synthesis: The Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder resulting from the loss of imprinted gene expression within the paternal chromosome 15q11-q13. PWS is characterized by endocrine abnormalities, such as growth hormone (GH) deficiency, obesity, central adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism, hypogonadism and complex behavioral and intellectual difficulties. PWS individuals also may present other comorbidities, such as sleep disorders, scoliosis, constipation, dental issues and coagulation disorders. The follow-up protocol of the Children's Institute at Universidade de São Paulo is based on four main pillars: diet, exercise, recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy and behavioral and cognitive issues. The diet must include a caloric restriction of 900 kcal/day, according to the Prader-Willi Eating Pyramid and exercise plan is focused on daily aerobic exercises and postural therapy. The rhGH therapy is highly recommended by the international scientific literature and must be started as soon as the diagnostic is made. The management of behavioral issues is based on strategies to establish routine and rules. Conclusions: If the general pediatrician becomes more familiar with PWS, the diagnosis and treatment will start earlier, which is essential to improve the quality of life and care for these individuals.

Background: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a major cause of syndromic obesity, caused by deletions on chromosome 15q11-q13. It is characterized by neonatal hypotonia, difficulty in feeding with low birth-weight and subsequent development of hyperphagia, behavioral disorders and obesity. Treatment options for weight control in those patients is limited and there are controversies for a surgical approach.Case Report: we present the case of a patient with PWS who achieved weight loss and control through the use of liraglutide, nutritional therapy and physical activity.Discussion: the treatment of obesity in patients with PWS is challenging and requires an adequate nutritional approach combined with psychological therapy. In those patients that persist with uncontrolled appetite, medications such as metformin or GLP-1 analogs can be used. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

- Abstract
Prader-Willi syndrome in a multisystem disorder; it is characterized in childhood by hypotonia, feeding difficulties, developmental delay and genital hypoplasia. In adolescence and adulthood, the problem focuses on behavioral changes, the absence of satiety and mild or moderate mental retardation. Its early diagnosis requires a high clinical suspicion and special studies (methylation studies and fluorescent in situ hybridization). An early detection reduces the morbidity and mortality of patients. There is a clear need for a multidisciplinary approach to facilitate early diagnosis and optimize management and treatment to improve quality of life. There are six cases of SPW that are followed in the Medical Specialties Unit; we report them in order to know the prevalence of PWS, since at present there is no record documenting it.

ABSTRACT CONTEXT: Bariatric surgery has become the gold-standard treatment for refractory morbid obesity. Obesity is frequently associated with certain syndromes that include coexisting cognitive deficits. However, the outcomes from bariatric surgery in this group of individuals remain incompletely determined. CASE REPORT: A 25-year-old male with Prader-Willi syndrome, whose intelligence quotient (IQ) was 54, was admitted with a body mass index (BMI) of 55 kg/m2, associated with glucose intolerance. He underwent the Scopinaro procedure for biliopancreatic diversion, with uneventful postoperative evolution, and presented a 55% loss of excess weight one year after the surgery, with resolution of glucose intolerance, and without any manifestation of protein-calorie malnutrition. A 28-year-old male with Down syndrome, whose IQ was 68, was admitted with BMI of 41.5 kg/m2, associated with hypertension. He underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, with uneventful postoperative evolution. He presented a 90% loss of excess weight one year after the surgery, with resolution of the hypertension. CONCLUSION: Bariatric surgery among individuals with intellectual impairment is a controversial topic. There is a tendency among these individuals to present significant weight loss and comorbidity control, but less than what is observed in the general obese population. The severity of the intellectual impairment may be taken into consideration in the decision-making process regarding the most appropriate surgical technique. Bariatric surgery is feasible and safe among these individuals, but further research is necessary to deepen these observations.

OBJECTIVE: this study aimed to investigate the cognitive and behavioral profiles, as well as the psychiatric symptoms and disorders in children with three different genetic syndromes with similar sociocultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. METHODS: thirty-four children aged 6 to 16 years, with Williams-Beuren syndrome (n = 10), Prader-Willi syndrome (n = 11), and Fragile X syndrome (n = 13) from the outpatient clinics of Child Psychiatry and Medical Genetics Department were cognitively assessed through the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-III). Afterwards, a full-scale intelligence quotient (IQ), verbal IQ, performance IQ, standard subtest scores, as well as frequency of psychiatric symptoms and disorders were compared among the three syndromes. RESULTS: significant differences were found among the syndromes concerning verbal IQ and verbal and performance subtests. Post-hoc analysis demonstrated that vocabulary and comprehension subtest scores were significantly higher in Williams-Beuren syndrome in comparison with Prader-Willi and Fragile X syndromes, and block design and object assembly scores were significantly higher in Prader-Willi syndrome compared with Williams-Beuren and Fragile X syndromes. Additionally, there were significant differences between the syndromes concerning behavioral features and psychiatric symptoms. The Prader-Willi syndrome group presented a higher frequency of hyperphagia and self-injurious behaviors. The Fragile X syndrome group showed a higher frequency of social interaction deficits; such difference nearly reached statistical significance. CONCLUSION: the three genetic syndromes exhibited distinctive cognitive, behavioral, and psychiatric patterns.

- Abstract
El presente trabajo persigue el análisis de uno de los síndromes que podemos encontrar a lo largo de nuestra vida profesional como docentes, en concreto, el estudio del síndrome de Prader-Willi. Conocemos multitud de síndromes, los cuales son muy comunes en las aulas, existiendo una gran información sobre los mismos. Podemos mencionar, entre otros; TEA (Trastornos del Espectro Autista) y TDAH (Trastorno por Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad). Como se ha mencionado anteriormente, las abundantes referencias facilitan la ayuda de todos aquellos que presenten cualquiera de estos síndromes. Por el contrario, la escasa información y pautas sobre el síndrome Prader-Willi (a partir de ahora, SPW), dificulta el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje sobre aquel alumno que padezca el mismo, siendo este, crucial para su desarrollo intelectual. El principal objetivo que se pretende con el siguiente estudio sobre el SPW, versará sobre la escolarización de dichos alumnos/As; guía para padres, como referencia para llevar a cabo una buena educación de sus hijos diagnosticados con Síndrome de Prader-Willi, incidiendo en la propuesta didáctica para reforzar tanto el ámbito lingüístico, matemático como el afectivo-social; esencial para el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Por último, se realizarán las evaluaciones oportunas para comprobar si dicha propuesta educativa ha servido como mejora para la alumna desde su realización., The present work pursues the analysis of one of the syndromes that we can find throughout our professional life as teachers, specifically, the study of the Prader-Willi syndrome. We know a multitude of syndromes, which are very common in classrooms, and there is a great deal of information about them. We can mention, among others; ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorders) and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). As mentioned above, the abundant references make it easy to help anyone with any of these syndromes. On the contrary, the scant information and guidelines on Prader- Willi syndrome (hereinafter, PWS), hinders the teaching-learning process on that student who suffers from it, this being crucial for their intellectual development. The main objective that is intended with the following study on the SPW, will be about the schooling of said students; guide for parents, emphasizing the didactic proposal to reinforce both the linguistic, mathematical and affective-social spheres; essential for the teaching-learning process. Finally, the appropriate evaluations will be carried out to check if said educational proposal haserved as an improvement for the student since its completion., Departamento de Psicología, Grado en Educación Primaria

Introduction Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder caused by the lack of expression of certain paternal genes located on chromosome 15q11-q13. This anomaly causes cognitive, neurological and endocrine abnormalities, among which one of the most important is hyperphagia. The aim of this study was to assess the oral health of children with PWA and to establish preventive criteria. Results Thirty patients with PWS (mean age 10.2 years) and 30 age- and gender-matched controls were included in the study. Twenty-six patients with PWS(86.6%) followed dietary treatment prescribed by their endocrinologist. Individuals with PWS had a mean caries index of 53.3% and Decayed Missing Filled teeth (DMFT) index 2.5, and 53.3% had gingivitis, in the control group the respective figures were 43.3%, 0.93, and 60%. Only the DMFT index (p 0.017) presented significant differences. Regarding stimulated salivary secretion, patients with PWS presented a mean of 0.475 ml/min with a pH of 6.15, while controls presented a mean of 0.848 ml/min with a pH of 7.53; the differences between the groups were statistically significant in both cases (p 0.032 and p 0.0001 respectively). The population with PWS presented a higher plaque index (> 2) than their healthy peers, but the differences were not significant. Conclusion Pediatric patients with Prader-Willi syndrome have an increased risk of caries and gingivitis. The children with this syndrome have a decreased salivary flow and a more acidic salivary pH. In these patients, dental care is an essential part of their multidisciplinary medical treatment.

OBJETIVO: Analizar los resultados y las complicaciones del tratamiento quirúrgico de la escoliosis, en pacientes portadores del Síndrome de Prader-Willi, para verificar si se justifica este tipo de tratamiento. MÉTODOS: Análisis retrospectivo de las fichas clínicas y radiografías de los cinco pacientes portadores del Síndrome de Prader-Willi que consultaron en el Departamento de Escoliosis entre los años 2005 y 2010, y fueron operados. RESULTADOS: La edad de la consulta inicial fue en promedio 3,6 años; el promedio de escoliosis fue 61º, el que aumentó a 65º al momento de la cirugía. El promedio de operaciones realizadas fue 2,8 por paciente, lográndose una corrección promedio de 35%. Los motivos de las reintervenciones fueron pérdida de corrección en 4 casos (28,5%), aflojamiento de ganchos en 2 (14,3%) y xifosis referente a la instrumentación en uno (7,1%) No hubo complicaciones graves. CONCLUSIONES: Aún cuando la literatura muestra autores poco proclives a indicar cirugía en este tipo de pacientes, por la elevada tasa de complicaciones graves, la ausencia de ellas en nuestro medio hace mantener válidos los mismos criterios quirúrgicos que en escoliosis idiopática.OBJETIVO: Analisar os resultados e as complicações do tratamento cirúrgico da escoliose em pacientes com síndrome de Prader-Willi para verificar se esse tipo de tratamento é justificado. MÉTODOS: Análise retrospectiva dos prontuários clínicos e das radiografias dos cinco pacientes portadores de síndrome de Prader-Willi tratados cirurgicamente no Departamento de Escoliose entre 2005 e 2010. RESULTADOS: A média de idade dos pacientes na consulta inicial foi 3,6 anos. A média de escoliose foi 61º, a qual tinha aumentado para 65º na ocasião da cirurgia. A média de cirurgias realizadas foi 2,8 por paciente, atingindo-se correção média de 35%. Os motivos das re-intervenções foram perda de correção em quatro casos (28,5%), afrouxamento dos ganchos em dois (14,3%) e cifose depois da instrumentação em um caso (7,1%). Não foram verificadas complicações graves. CONCLUSÕES: Mesmo que a literatura mostre autores pouco inclinados a indicar cirurgia nesse tipo de pacientes, por causa da elevada taxa de complicações graves, a ausência dessas complicações em nossa prática valida os mesmos critérios cirúrgicos da escoliose idiopática.OBJECTIVE: Analyze the results and complications of scoliosis surgery in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome to verify if this kind of treatment is justified. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of clinical records and radiographs of five patients with Prader-Willi syndrome treated at the Department of Scoliosis between 2005 and 2010. RESULTS: The average age of patients at the first visit was 3.6 years. The average scoliosis was 61°, which increased to 65° at the time of surgery. The average number of surgeries performed per patient was 2.8, reaching an average correction of 35%. The reasons for re-interventions were correction loss in 4 cases (28.5%), loosening of hooks in two cases (14.3%), and kyphosis after instrumentation in one case (7.1%). There were no serious complications. CONCLUSIONS: Even though the literature shows authors unwilling to indicate surgery in such patients because of the high rate of severe complications, the absence of these complications in our practice validates the use of the same surgical criteria of idiopathic scoliosis.

A síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) é uma doença neurocomportamental genética que afeta o desenvolvimento da criança, resultando em obesidade, estatura reduzida, hipotonia, distúrbios endócrinos e déficit cognitivo que podem comprometer a integridade da cavidade oral. O presente estudo tem como finalidade apresentar um caso de paciente branco, masculino, 15 anos de idade portador da referida síndrome cujo exame clínico intra-oral evidenciou presença de placa bacteriana, gengivite, má-oclusão, salivação viscosa e múltiplas lesões ulceradas em lábio, mucosa jugal, gengiva inserida, dorso e ventre lingual e lesões papulares ulceradas em borda lateral da língua. Após realização de biópsia excisional, foi constatada a presença de lesão herpética em cavidade oral e lesões cutâneas típicas do herpes que foram associadas a possível causa de encefalite herpética. Assim, observou-se que grande parcela dos efeitos deletérios da SPW podem ser amenizados com o diagnóstico correto e intervenções terapêuticas e educacionais precoces, sendo importante a atuação de uma equipe multiprofissional integrada e o desenvolvimento de protocolos assistenciais para melhor manejo dos pacientes portadores da síndrome de Prader-Willi.

Objetivo: se hace una revisión detallada de la amenorreaprimaria, teniendo como base la clasificación propuesta por Mashchak CA y col. de acuerdo con la presencia o ausencia del desarrollo mamario y la presencia o no de útero, por ser la de mayor utilidad para el enfoque de manejo de las pacientes con amenorrea primaria. Metodología: se realizó una búsqueda de la literatura publicada en inglés a través de MEDLINE y OVID, usando como palabras clave: amenorrhea, primary amenorrhea, menstrual disorders, Turner syndrome, Kallmann syndrome, Prader-Willi síndrome, hypogonadotropic-hypogonadism; y se clasificó la información como soporte de la presente revisión, realizando resúmenes para su análisis. Resultados: la amenorrea primaria puede ser causada por una variedad de alteraciones que incluyen anormalidades müllerianas, gonadales, hipofisiarias, hipotalámicas, adrenales y tiroideas, o disfunciones hormonales en estos diferentes niveles. Estas anormalidades pueden ser congénitas por defectos cromosómicos o genéticos, o adquiridas, por lo tanto, es importante realizar un diagnóstico certero de esta patología para llevar a cabo un enfoque terapéutico adecuado, con el fin de disminuir todas las consecuencias que la enfermedad puede causar. Conclusiones: el tratamiento de las pacientes con amenorrea primaria debe ser individualizado, de acuerdo con las posibilidades terapéuticas de cada paciente, pero existen unas preguntas generales que tienen todas las pacientes o sus familiares y son relacionadas con la menstruación y los ciclos menstruales espontáneos posteriores, fertilidad, sexualidad y posibilidad de coitos con penetración vaginal satisfactoria.Objective: this is a detailed review of primary amenorrhea using Mashchak CA et al. classification according to the presence or absence of breast development and the presence or absence of uterus as being the most useful approach for managing patients suffering from this problem. Method: Medline and Ovid databases were searched for papers published in English using the following keywords: amenorrhea, primary amenorrhea, menstrual disorder, Turner syndrome, Kallmann syndrome, Prader-Willisyndrome, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. This information was classified to support this review by making summaries for analysis. Results: primary amenorrhea can be caused by many alterations affecting the Mullerian structures, gonads, pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thyroid, adrenals or hormonal dysfunction; such anomalies may be congenital due to genetic or chromosomal defects or acquired. It is thus important that this problem is specifically diagnosed to enable a suitable therapeutic approach to be adopted for minimising the consequences of this disease. Conclusions: many diseases cause this problem, so diagnosing and treating patients suffering from primary amenorrhea must be individualised; however, some general questions needing specific answers are raised by all patients or their families. These questions are related to menstruation and spontaneous menstrual cycles, subsequent fertility, sexuality and the possibility of coitus with satisfactory vaginal penetration.

INTRODUÇÃO: A Síndrome de Prader-Willi é um raro distúrbio genético causado pela perda de uma parte do cromossomo 15 paterno, podendo gerar diversos problemas ao paciente, como, hipotonia, hiporreflexia, letargia, dificuldade de sucção, entre outros. OBJETIVOS: Este estudo tem como objetivo demonstrar a variedade de apresentações clínicas da síndrome, sua epidemiologia, fisiopatologia, bem como a importância do diagnóstico e tratamento precoce para que não desencadeia sintomas mais graves. APRESENTAÇÃO DO CASO: Paciente EES, de 2 anos de idade, sexo masculino, natural e procedente de Goiânia, Goiás, com familiares referindo alterações do desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor e comportamentais. Ao exame físico e de imagem foi evidenciado alterações craniofaciais, hipogenitalismo sendo feito o diagnóstico de Prader-Willi. DISCUSSÃO: o tratamento pode ser abordado pela fisioterapia, por cirurgia e por órteses. Entretanto, deve ser considerado o contexto clínico que envolve o paciente com PWS, uma vez que pode existir uma menor densidade óssea e um quadro de hipotonia, dificultando mais o resultado das intervenções. Somado a isso, existe também, uma maior chance de complicações pós cirúrgicas, tendo em vista que a hiperfagia, sintoma comum em PWS, aumentar a chance de ruptura estomacal e da ocorrência de gastroparesia. De modo que, é essencial o controle da alimentação do indivíduo após a realização do procedimento ortopédico. CONCLUSÃO: Conclui-se, portanto, que é de suma relevância médicos e profissionais da saúde conhecerem o quadro clínico da Síndrome de Prader-Willi, para que se inicie a terapia mais precocemente possível. Sendo assim, isso é importante para que não haja um diagnóstico tardio, acarretando ao paciente maiores danos como doenças crônicas degenerativas

- Abstract
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a known neurodevelopmental genetic disorder secondary to lack of expression of the genes of the 15q11-q13 region allele of paternal origin, with an estimated prevalence of 1:25000 births. It is characterized by the presence of dysmorphia, short stature, hypogonadism, overweight, and a behavioral phenotype with learning disabilities, mental retardation, rituals, stereotypies and compulsive behaviors, skin-picking, frequent tantrums, irritability, and hyperphagia. The SPW is also associated with an increased risk of psychiatric symptoms, most notably by its severity psychoses and affective disorders. It is presented the case of a 12-years-old male diagnosed with SPW in which suddenly appears an atypical psychotic episode, discussing both its diagnosis and therapeutic intervention in the light of the published scientific literature.

Biological psychiatry. Neuropsychiatry ,RC321-571 - Abstract
The Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and the Angelman syndrome (AS) are human neurogenetic disorders involving the imprinting mechanism, at the 15q11-13 chromosome region. The predominant genetic defects in PW are 15q 11-13 deletions of paternal origin and maternal chromosome 15 uniparental disomy. In contrast, maternal deletions and paternal chromosome 15 uniparental disomy are associated with a different neurogenetic disorder, the AS. In both disorders, these mutations are associated with parent-of-origin specific methylation at several 15q 11-13 loci. We studied 5 patients suspect of PWS and 4 patients suspect of AS who were referred to the Medical Genetics Unit at the University Hospital of Medical School from Ribeirão Preto. Our objective was to establish the correct clinical and etiological diagnosis in these cases. We used conventional cytogenetics, methylation analysis with the probe KB 17 (CpG island of the SNRPN gene) by Southern blotting after digestion with the Xba I and Not I restriction enzymes. We studied in patients and their parents the segregation of the (CA)n repeats polymorphisms by PCR, using the primers 196 and IR4-3R. All the patients had normal conventional cytogenetical analysis. We confirmed 3 cases of PWS: one by de novo deletion, one by maternal chromosome 15 uniparental disomy and one case with no defined cause determined by the used primers. We confirmed 2 cases of AS, caused by de novo deletion at the 15q 11-13 region, and one case with normal molecular analysis but with strong clinical characteristics.A síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) e a síndrome de Angelman (SA) são doenças neurogenéticas consideradas como exemplos do fenômeno de imprinting em seres humanos, estando relacionadas com alterações envolvendo a região cromossômica 15q11-13. As alterações genéticas predominantes na SPW são deleções na região 15q 11-13 de origem paterna e dissomia uniparental materna. Na SA encontra-se deleções na região 15q 11-13 materna e dissomia uniparental paterna. Estudamos 5 pacientes com suspeita clínica de SPW e 4 pacientes com suspeita clínica de SA atendidos no Setor de Genética Médica do Hospital Universitário da FMRP-USP, com o objetivo de estabelecer o diagnóstico clínico e etiológico de certeza nessa amostra. Para isso utilizamos citogenética convencional, estudo de metilação por Southern blotting utilizando a sonda KB 17 (ilha CpG do gene SNRPN) após digestão com as enzimas de restrição Xba I e Not I e análise de polimorfismos de repetição de CA por PCR, usando os primers 196 e IR4-3R. Dos 9 pacientes avaliados, todos tiveram avaliação citogenética convencional normal. Foram confirmados a nível molecular, 1 caso de SPW por deleção nova, 1 caso de SPW por dissomia uniparental materna e 1 caso de SPW em que a causa genética não pode ser esclarecida pela análise de polimorfismo com os primers usados. Foram confirmados a nível molecular 2 casos de SA, ambos por deleção nova na região 15q 11-13, e 1 caso de SA cuja clínica é extremamente sugestiva mas no qual não foi evidenciada alteração em qualquer dos exames moleculares utilizados.

Prader&ndash, Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a wide range of clinical manifestations, including obesity, hyperphagia, and behavioral problems. Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis strain BPL1 has been shown to improve central adiposity in adults with simple obesity. To evaluate BPL1&prime, s effects in children with PWS, we performed a randomized crossover trial among 39 patients (mean age 10.4 years). Participants were randomized to placebo&ndash, BPL1 (n = 19) or BPL1&ndash, placebo (n = 20) sequences and underwent a 12-week period with placebo/BPL1 treatments, a 12-week washout period, and a 12-week period with the crossover treatment. Thirty-five subjects completed the study. The main outcome was changes in adiposity, measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Secondary outcomes included lipid and glucose metabolism, hyperphagia, and mental health symptoms. Generalized linear modeling was applied to assess differences between treatments. While BPL1 did not modify total fat mass compared to placebo, BPL1 decreased abdominal adiposity in a subgroup of patients older than 4.5 years (n = 28). BPL1 improved fasting insulin concentration and insulin sensitivity. Furthermore, we observed modest improvements in some mental health symptoms. A follow-up trial with a longer treatment period is warranted to determine whether BPL1 supplementation can provide a long-term therapeutic approach for children with PWS (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03548480).

Prader&ndash, Willi syndrome is a rare genetic disorder associated with impaired body composition, hyperphagia, and excessive weight gain. Strict dietary restrictions from an early age is crucial to prevent or delay the early onset of obesity, which is the main driver of comorbidities in these patients. The aim of this study was to identify dietary and gut microbiota components closely linked to weight status of these patients. We studied a cohort of children and adolescents with genetic diagnosis of Prader&ndash, Willi syndrome (N = 31), in which we determined adiposity by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and dietary composition with 4-day food records. Furthermore, we obtained fecal samples to assess microbiota composition by 16S sequencing. Multivariate regression models showed that body mass index standard deviation score (BMI-SDS) and body fat mass were directly associated with saturated fat intake and meat consumption, and inversely associated with fruit consumption. Furthermore, the gut microbiome from normal weight patients was characterized by higher phylogenetic diversity compared to those overweight or obese, with differential abundance of several genera, including Alistipes, Klebsiella, and Murimonas. Notably, Alistipes abundance was inversely correlated to adiposity, lipid and glucose homeostasis parameters, and meat intake. Our results suggest that limiting meat and increasing fruit intake might be beneficial for body weight management in children and adolescents with Prader&ndash, Willi syndrome.

CONTEXT: Bariatric surgery has become the gold-standard treatment for refractory morbid obesity. Obesity is frequently associated with certain syndromes that include coexisting cognitive deficits. However, the outcomes from bariatric surgery in this group of individuals remain incompletely determined. CASE REPORT: A 25-year-old male with Prader-Willi syndrome, whose intelligence quotient (IQ) was 54, was admitted with a body mass index (BMI) of 55 kg/m2, associated with glucose intolerance. He underwent the Scopinaro procedure for biliopancreatic diversion, with uneventful postoperative evolution, and presented a 55% loss of excess weight one year after the surgery, with resolution of glucose intolerance, and without any manifestation of protein-calorie malnutrition. A 28-year-old male with Down syndrome, whose IQ was 68, was admitted with BMI of 41.5 kg/m2, associated with hypertension. He underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, with uneventful postoperative evolution. He presented a 90% loss of excess weight one year after the surgery, with resolution of the hypertension. CONCLUSION: Bariatric surgery among individuals with intellectual impairment is a controversial topic. There is a tendency among these individuals to present significant weight loss and comorbidity control, but less than what is observed in the general obese population. The severity of the intellectual impairment may be taken into consideration in the decision-making process regarding the most appropriate surgical technique. Bariatric surgery is feasible and safe among these individuals, but further research is necessary to deepen these observations. RESUMO CONTEXTO: A cirurgia bariátrica tornou-se o tratamento padrão ouro para a obesidade mórbida refratária. A obesidade está frequentemente associada a certas síndromes nas quais também coexistem déficits cognitivos, entretanto, os resultados da cirurgia bariátrica nesse grupo de indivíduos ainda não foram completamente determinados. RELATO DE CASO: Um homem de 25 anos com síndrome de Prader-Willi, cujo quociente de inteligência (QI) era estimado em 54, foi admitido com índice de massa corporal (IMC) de 55 kg/m2, associado com intolerância à glicose. Foi submetido a uma derivação biliopancreática à Scopinaro, com evolução pós-operatória sem complicações significativas. Apresentou perda de 55% do excesso de peso um ano após a cirurgia, com resolução da intolerância à glicose, sem manifestação de desnutrição proteico-calórica. Outro paciente, homem de 28 anos com syndrome de Down, cujo QI era de 68, foi admitido com IMC de 41,5 kg/m2, associado a hipertensão arterial. Foi submetido ao bypass gástrico em Y de Roux, com evolução pós-operatória sem complicações. Apresentou perda de 90% do excesso de peso após um ano e resolução da hipertensão. CONCLUSÃO: A cirurgia bariátrica em indivíduos com déficits intelectuais é um tópico controverso. Existe uma tendência entre esses indivíduos de apresentar perda de peso e controle de comorbidades significativos, porém menores que os observados na população obesa geral. A gravidade do déficit intelectual pode ser considerada no processo de decisão sobre a técnica cirúrgica mais adequada. A cirurgia bariátrica é factível e segura nesse grupo de indivíduos. Porém, mais estudos são necessários para aprofundar estas observações.

Objective: To develop an insight scale for Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), a genetically determined neurodevelopmental disorder with different psychopathological and behavioural problems., Methodology: A sample of 36 PWS patients (58.3% women) attended at the Endocrinological Department of the Corporació Sanitària Parc Taulí (Sabadell, Barcelona) was evaluated. Insight was assessed by means of an adapted version of the Scale of Unawareness of Mental Disorder (SUMD), including three general insight dimensions: awareness of having a PWS, awareness of the effects of psychopharmacological medication and awareness of the social consequences, as well as three items that assess awareness of each particular symptom of the disease (obesity/overweight, excessive appetite and excessive food intake)., Results: The final Scale included six items and demonstrated an adequate internal consistency (Cronbach Alfa of 0.857 for Caregivers and 0.798 for Clinicians) but a high inter-rate variability. External validation using an Analytical-Visual Insight Scale was adequate., Conclusions: The Adapted version for Prader-Willi patients of the Scale of Unawareness of Mental Disorder (APW-SUD) showed adequate psychometric properties and it is an easy to administer means to assess insight in this population., (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier España, S.L.U.

This study analyses the cognitive characteristics of Prader-Willi Syndrome (SPW). Ten SPW patients with WISC-R and ITPA were evaluated. Subjects were divided into three groups using the K-means method and a Kruskal-Wallis analysis was later carried out, in order to characterize the three groups. The characteristics of these three groups are in accordance with those described in the literature for the three main genetic groups of SPW. The first group shows similar characteristics for those described in people with disomy: good verbal abilities, both expressive and comprehensive, as well as dispraxic features. The second group coincides with the characteristics of short deletions, with a homogeneous profile of slight mental retardation and a predominance of praxic abilities; their comprehensive linguistic abilities are higher than their expressive abilities. The third group matches the characteristics of long deletion, with a homogeneous level of average mental retardation and deterioration of expressive and comprehensive abilities. Some principles and strategies are discussed for the purpose of educational intervention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: this is a detailed review of primary amenorrhea using Mashchak CA et al. classification according to the presence or absence of breast development and the presence or absence of uterus as being the most useful approach for managing patients suffering from this problem. Method: Medline and Ovid databases were searched for papers published in English using the following keywords: amenorrhea, primary amenorrhea, menstrual disorder, Turner syndrome, Kallmann syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. This information was classified to support this review by making summaries for analysis. Results: primary amenorrhea can be caused by many alterations affecting the Mullerian structures, gonads, pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thyroid, adrenals or hormonal dysfunction; such anomalies may be congenital due to genetic or chromosomal defects or acquired. It is thus important that this problem is specifically diagnosed to enable a suitable therapeutic approach to be adopted for minimising the consequences of this disease. Conclusions: many diseases cause this problem, so diagnosing and treating patients suffering from primary amenorrhea must be individualised; however, some general questions needing specific answers are raised by all patients or their families. These questions are related to menstruation and spontaneous menstrual cycles, subsequent fertility, sexuality and the possibility of coitus with satisfactory vaginal penetration.

The objective of present study was compared the behavioral profile of two different groups of children and adolescents with obesity. Ten subjects presented diagnoses of exogenous obesity and ten Prader-Willi syndrome. The Prader-Willi syndrome is a genetic disease which the main behavioral symptom is hyperphagia. The samples were paired by sex and age, with mean age of 12 years. In the evaluation of behavioral profile was utilized Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL/6-18). In the most cases children with exogenous obesity have obtained better results than the referred with Prader-Willi Syndrome. Into the comparison by mean of ANOVA univariate identified significant differences between the groups in the scales: school (p = 0.001), social problems (p = 0.012), thought problems (p = 0.001), attention problems (p = 0.048), rule-breaking behavior (p = 0.019); aggressive behavior (p = 0.003) and conduct problems (p = 0.001).

Agência 1 A Síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) é uma desordem genética rara, neurocomportamental e que altera o desenvolvimento físico e cognitivo do indivíduo. Trata-se de uma síndrome causada pela perda de atividade dos genes paternos expressos no cromossomo 15q11–13. Esta região do cromossomo 15 é complexa e com genes que codificam inúmeras proteínas, gerando muitas alterações, sendo as principais relacionadas ao desenvolvimento cardiovascular e respiratório decorrentes da obesidade e diretamente responsáveis pela alta mortalidade. Apesar de existirem descrições a respeito das manifestações sistêmicas e comportamentais dos indivíduos com SPW, existem muitas dúvidas a respeito das condições bucais dos mesmos. Este trabalho tem como objetivos avaliar qualidade de vida e saúde bucal de um jovem com 19 anos de idade, diagnosticado com SPW, bem como avaliar componentes salivares e polimorfismos genéticos. Foram realizados questionários, exame clínico bucal, análises salivares e genotipagem do DNA. O indivíduo apresentou bom nível cognitivo, qualidade de vida boa ou muito boa, ausência na alteração de sono e ansiedade moderada. Em relação a saúde bucal, constatou-se baixo índice de placa visível e ausência de doença periodontal, porém observou-se o índice de dentes cariados, perdidos ou obturados (CPO-D). Suas principais necessidades odontológicas são restaurações dentárias, endodontia e ortodontia. Não foram observadas alterações em variáveis salivares e os polimorfismos genéticos mostraram trocas de bases nos genes COMT, FKBP5, PARK2 e ANKK1, que já foram associados na literatura com condições sistêmicas. Com os dados obtidos foi possível traçar um panorama geral da qualidade de vida do indivíduo com SPW bem como levantar características de saúde bucal nesta síndrome. Prader-Willi Sydrome (PWS) is a rare, neurobehavioral genetic disorder that alters the individual’s physical and cognitive development. It is a syndrome caused by the loss of activity of the paternal genes expressed on chromosome 15q11-13. This region of chromosome 15 is a complex and with genes that encode numerous proteins, generating many changes, the main ones being related to cardiovascular and respiratory involvement resulting from obesity and directly responsible for high mortality. Although there are descriptions about the systemic and behavioral manifestations of individuals with PWS, there are many doubts about the oral conditions patients with PWS. For this reason, this work aims to describe quality of life, sleep quality, anxiety, quality of life in relation to oral health, identify oral health condition, salivary components and genetic polymorphisms in a 19 year old young man diagnosed with PWS with the intention of contributing to the knowledge of this syndrome. To obtain the results, questionnaires were made with the individual, clinical oral examination, sialometry, sialochemical analysis, and genotyping. As a result, a good cognitive level of the patient was found, quality of life was good or very good, absence of sleep disturbance and moderate anxiety. Regarding oral health, there was a low index of visible plaque and absence of periodontal disease, but the index of decayed, missing or filled teeth was observed above the average of the Brazilian population. There are no changes in salivary variables and genetic polymorphisms have shown base changes in the COMT, FKBP5, PARK2, ANKK1 genes, that have already been associated in the literature with systemic conditions. With the obtained data it was possible to draw a general panorama of the quality of life of the individual with SPW as well as to raise characteristics of oral health in this syndrome.

- Abstract
The girl Eugenia Martínez Vallejo, The Monstrua, born in 1674, victim of his physical deformity had the necessary conditions to be received in palace. It caused admiration at his arrival to the Court of the Austrias and by it it was exhibited, and also painted by artists of the epoch with more or less smoothing feature. It was the dispute to the beauty of the noble ladies. With morphologic identifiable signs with a genetic disorder, which today is known by since Prader-Willi’s syndrome, without stopping of side that might have an exogenous obesity or also a Cushing’s syndrome., La niña Eugenia Martínez Vallejo, La Monstrua, nacida en 1674, víctima de su deformidad física tenía las condiciones necesarias para ser acogida en palacio. Causó admiración a su llegada a la Corte de los Austrias y por ello fue exhibida, y también pintada por artistas de la época con más o menos suavización de rasgos. Ella era el contrapunto a la belleza de las damas nobles. Con signos morfológicos identificables con un trastorno genético, que hoy se conoce con como síndrome de Prader-Willi, sin dejar de lado que podría tener una obesidad exógena o también un síndrome de Cushing.

The Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a complex genetic alteration affecting appetite, growth, metabolism, cognitive func-tion and behavior. It is characterized by low muscle tone, low height, incomplete sexual development, behavioral difficul-ties, and especially by chronic feelings of insatiable hunger and slow metabolism threatening life due to obesity. Changes in behaviour are very common and are related to the difficulty of dental treatment approach. We report the case of a 11-year-old patient, female, diagnosed with PWS, with high risk obesity and serious behavioural alterations. Clinically, she present-ed active caries lesions, periodontitis and dental extraction need. Conditioning for dental treatment was performed using techniques of ludotherapy and play therapy during 6 sessions, allowing the proposed interventions. It could be concluded that the use of both conditioning interventions decreased the anxiety facilitating the professional-patient bond, appearing as effective techniques for the outpatient care on pediatric patients dental control with severe behavioural alterations. El Síndrome de Prader-Willi (PWS) es una enfermedad genética compleja que afecta el apetito, crecimiento, metabolis-mo, función y comportamiento cognitivo. Está caracterizada por el bajo tono muscular, baja estatura, desarrollo sexual incompleto y problemas de conducta. El portador de este síndrome presenta características relacionadas a estados crónicos de insaciabilidad y de metabolismo lento que lo puede inducir a comer en exceso poniendo en riesgo su vida debido a la obesidad. Las alteraciones en la conducta son frecuentes dificultando el tratamiento odontológico de forma ambulatoria. Este es el reporte de caso de una paciente de 11 años de edad, diagnosticada con PWS, que presentó obesidad de alto ries-go y alteraciones severas en la conducta. Al examen clínico fueron observadas lesiones de caries dental, periodontitis y necesidad de extracciones dentarias. La paciente fue condicionada a través de las técnicas de Ludoterapia e Clownterapia durante 6 sesiones, permitiendo que los tratamientos fueran realizados. Estas dos terapias disminuyeron la ansiedad y fa-cilitaron el vínculo con el profesional, demostrando que son eficaces en el control de la conducta de pacientes pediátricos con alteraciones severas de conducta.

RESUMO Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão sobre a Síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) com base nas publicações mais recentes e fornecer recomendações ao pediatra geral para diagnóstico precoce e seguimento. Fonte de dados: Artigos publicados nas bases Pubmed e SciELO. A pesquisa não foi limitada a um período e incluiu todos os artigos das bases de dados. Síntese dos dados: A SPW é uma síndrome genética rara, resultante da perda do imprinting gênico expresso no cromossomo paterno 15q11-q13, sendo caracterizada por alterações endocrinológicas, como deficiência de hormônio de crescimento, obesidade, insuficiência adrenal central, hipotireoidismo, hipogonadismo, além de alterações comportamentais e déficit intelectual. Há outras comorbidades associadas, como distúrbios de sono, escoliose, constipação, problemas dentários e alterações de coagulação. O protocolo de seguimento da SPW do Instituto da Criança da Universidade de São Paulo se baseia em quarto pilares principais: dieta, exercício físico, terapia com hormônio de crescimento humano recombinante (rhGH) e manejo comportamental e cognitivo. A dieta deve ser restrita a 900 kcal/dia, de acordo com a Pirâmide Alimentar do Prader-Willi, e o exercício físico deve ser diário, aeróbico e postural. A terapia com rhGH é fortemente recomendada pela literatura científica internacional e deve ser iniciada assim que for realizado o diagnóstico da síndrome. O manejo do comportamento é realizado com estratégias para estabelecer rotina e regras. Conclusões: Se a SPW se tornar mais familiar ao pediatra geral, o diagnóstico e o tratamento começarão mais precocemente, o que irá melhorar a qualidade de vida e os cuidados desses pacientes.

ABSTRACT Objective: To carry out a review about Prader-Willi Syndrome based on the most recent data about the subject and to give recommendation for the general pediatricians for early diagnoses and follow-up. Data sources: Scientific articles in the PubMed and SciELO databases. The research was not limited to a specific time period and included all articles in such databases. Data synthesis: The Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder resulting from the loss of imprinted gene expression within the paternal chromosome 15q11-q13. PWS is characterized by endocrine abnormalities, such as growth hormone (GH) deficiency, obesity, central adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism, hypogonadism and complex behavioral and intellectual difficulties. PWS individuals also may present other comorbidities, such as sleep disorders, scoliosis, constipation, dental issues and coagulation disorders. The follow-up protocol of the Children’s Institute at Universidade de São Paulo is based on four main pillars: diet, exercise, recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy and behavioral and cognitive issues. The diet must include a caloric restriction of 900 kcal/day, according to the Prader-Willi Eating Pyramid and exercise plan is focused on daily aerobic exercises and postural therapy. The rhGH therapy is highly recommended by the international scientific literature and must be started as soon as the diagnostic is made. The management of behavioral issues is based on strategies to establish routine and rules. Conclusions: If the general pediatrician becomes more familiar with PWS, the diagnosis and treatment will start earlier, which is essential to improve the quality of life and care for these individuals.

CONTEXT: Bariatric surgery has become the gold-standard treatment for refractory morbid obesity. Obesity is frequently associated with certain syndromes that include coexisting cognitive deficits. However, the outcomes from bariatric surgery in this group of individuals remain incompletely determined. CASE REPORT: A 25-year-old male with Prader-Willi syndrome, whose intelligence quotient (IQ) was 54, was admitted with a body mass index (BMI) of 55 kg/m2, associated with glucose intolerance. He underwent the Scopinaro procedure for biliopancreatic diversion, with uneventful postoperative evolution, and presented a 55% loss of excess weight one year after the surgery, with resolution of glucose intolerance, and without any manifestation of protein-calorie malnutrition. A 28-year-old male with Down syndrome, whose IQ was 68, was admitted with BMI of 41.5 kg/m2, associated with hypertension. He underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, with uneventful postoperative evolution. He presented a 90% loss of excess weight one year after the surgery, with resolution of the hypertension. CONCLUSION: Bariatric surgery among individuals with intellectual impairment is a controversial topic. There is a tendency among these individuals to present significant weight loss and comorbidity control, but less than what is observed in the general obese population. The severity of the intellectual impairment may be taken into consideration in the decision-making process regarding the most appropriate surgical technique. Bariatric surgery is feasible and safe among these individuals, but further research is necessary to deepen these observations. RESUMO CONTEXTO: A cirurgia bariátrica tornou-se o tratamento padrão ouro para a obesidade mórbida refratária. A obesidade está frequentemente associada a certas síndromes nas quais também coexistem déficits cognitivos, entretanto, os resultados da cirurgia bariátrica nesse grupo de indivíduos ainda não foram completamente determinados. RELATO DE CASO: Um homem de 25 anos com síndrome de Prader-Willi, cujo quociente de inteligência (QI) era estimado em 54, foi admitido com índice de massa corporal (IMC) de 55 kg/m2, associado com intolerância à glicose. Foi submetido a uma derivação biliopancreática à Scopinaro, com evolução pós-operatória sem complicações significativas. Apresentou perda de 55% do excesso de peso um ano após a cirurgia, com resolução da intolerância à glicose, sem manifestação de desnutrição proteico-calórica. Outro paciente, homem de 28 anos com syndrome de Down, cujo QI era de 68, foi admitido com IMC de 41,5 kg/m2, associado a hipertensão arterial. Foi submetido ao bypass gástrico em Y de Roux, com evolução pós-operatória sem complicações. Apresentou perda de 90% do excesso de peso após um ano e resolução da hipertensão. CONCLUSÃO: A cirurgia bariátrica em indivíduos com déficits intelectuais é um tópico controverso. Existe uma tendência entre esses indivíduos de apresentar perda de peso e controle de comorbidades significativos, porém menores que os observados na população obesa geral. A gravidade do déficit intelectual pode ser considerada no processo de decisão sobre a técnica cirúrgica mais adequada. A cirurgia bariátrica é factível e segura nesse grupo de indivíduos. Porém, mais estudos são necessários para aprofundar estas observações.

La intención del siguiente trabajo de fin de grado es llevar a cabo una propuesta de intervención logopédica para un niño de cinco años diagnosticado con Síndrome de Prader-Willi. Dicha propuesta de intervención se centra en los aspectos deficitarios que el niño presenta a nivel del habla como consecuencia de su hipotonía, así como de su retraso evolutivo con respecto a su edad cronológica. Todo el proceso se llevará a cabo teniendo en cuenta las características propias del sujeto así como las necesidades de intervención del mismo. El Síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) fue descrito en 1956. Se trata de una enfermedad rara de origen genético, que deriva de la ausencia de actividad normal de los genes del cromosoma 15. Al tratarse de una enfermedad poco frecuente, con este trabajo también se pretende dar luz a dicha enfermedad, y conocer así la importancia de la rehabilitación logopédica en los sujetos con SPW., Grado en Logopedia

Este Trabajo de Fin de Grado está orientado a solventar las necesidades, tanto educativas como físicas de una persona con Síndrome de Prader-Willi. En primer lugar se realizará una entrevista a la progenitora de la persona objeto de estudio para conocer las necesidades que tiene en su vida cotidiana. Esta entrevista tiene como base la teoría de Bronferbrenner, con el objetivo de intentar abarcar todos los ámbitos (microsistema, mesosistema y exosistema) que afectan a una persona. Además se investigará el nivel académico, en el que se encuentra la persona estudiada gracias a una serie de pruebas curriculares en las asignaturas de lengua y matemáticas para, junto con la entrevista, extraer conclusiones y planificar una intervención específica. Dicha intervención no estará centrada en solventar las necesidades propias de cada asignatura, sino en intentar superar las barreras cognitivas que han impedido que avance al mismo ritmo que sus compañeros. En el aspecto físico se realizará un análisis y se actuará sobre las dificultades observadas mediante hipoterapia. Por último se ofrecerá una serie de pautas a los familiares con el objetivo de solventar las típicas actuaciones disruptivas del SPW, lo que se ha llamado buenas prácticas., This Project has been conducted in order to solve the special needs (physical or educational) of Prader-Willi syndrome kids at schools. First of all, a mother of a kid with this genetic disease will be interviewed to know about the difficulties in a daily life based on the Bronferbrenner theory, to meet the different environments (microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem) that could affect the patient. Besides, a complete report will be conducted to investigate the academic performance based on math or language exams, as well as different interviews to get to useful conclusions to plan an educational strategy. All this will be useful to surpass the cognition barriers that has prevented the kid to get along with his other classmates. From the physical point of view a detailed analysis will be performed to prevent the observed difficulties though a hippotherapy. To conclude, several rules will be outlined to the family in order to prevent the disruptive patient behavior, they are known as good practices

Resumen: El síndrome de Prader-Willi debe formar parte del diagnóstico diferencial en los casos de hipotonía de presentación neonatal de origen central, especialmente cuando se acompaña de otras características clínicas típicas de la enfermedad. La importancia de su diagnóstico precoz, ya sea en el ámbito hospitalario o desde las consultas de Atención Primaria, reside tanto en la necesidad de instaurar una adecuada estimulación y fisioterapia por parte de los Servicios de Atención Temprana como de un correcto soporte nutricional en los que debutan con trastorno importante de succión. Así mismo es importante ofrecer un correcto consejo genético para planificar futuras gestaciones. Presentamos el caso clínico de un recién nacido con hipotonía de presentación neonatal junto con criptorquidia bilateral y fenotipo peculiar, en el que se confirmó, mediante estudio genético, el diagnóstico de sospecha de síndrome de Prader-Willi. Abstract: Prader-Willi syndrome should be part of the differential diagnosis in cases of central neonatal hypotonia, especially when accompanied by other typical clinical features of the disease. The importance of an early diagnosis, either in hospital or in primary care center lies both in the need to establish an early care and nutritional support, which will improve the quality of life of patients suffering from this syndrome, and genetic counselling that should be made to parents of affected children to plan future pregnancies. We present the case of a new-born with neonatal hypotonia, bilateral cryptorchidism and peculiar phenotype, in which the suspected diagnosis of Prader-Willi syndrome was confirmed by genetic study. We also present a review of the etiology, phenotypic findings and clinical course over the stages of life, management and prognosis of the entity.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a genetic anomaly resulting from the absence of gene expression of parental chromosome 15 (11.2q-13q) in a region controlled by a genomic imprinting. PWS is the genetic syndrome most commonly associated with obesity, because they do not develop the sensation of satiety which leads to the constant search for food (hyperphagic behavior). PWS is also marked by intellectual disability, deficits in executive functions, emotional and behavioral problems. Given the lack of information about PWS in Brazil and informative material that helps parents and professionals in the management of the syndrome, mainly for physical activity practices, the present thesis was composed of two studies: Study 1: it had as objective to conduct a survey about health condition of PWS population in Brazil and Study 2: developed and evaluated a guide and a physical activity program to improve the health conditions of people with PWS. forty people responsible for persons with PWS participated in the study. They were recruited from care associations for people with disabilities in Brazil. For this phase of the research, the following inventories were used: Sociodemographic questionnaire, Brief problem monitor (BPM-P 6/18), World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL-Brief), Medical History and Exercise [QHME], Nutrition Screen and Intake Form (NSIF) and Parental Survey (PS). In Study 2, two children whose parents received the physical activity program took part with their parents with the supervision of a physical education teacher for four weeks. Before the beginning, the participants answered the aforementioned questionnaires and the children with PWS were evaluated by: Anthropometric measurements, Physical Fitness Assessment Battery (PROESP-BR) and Evaluation of Cardiac Autonomic Activity through Heart Rate Variability (HRV)), 6/18 Child Behavior Check List (CBCL 6/18), and Wechsler Short Intelligence Scale (WASI). As result, it was verified in study 1 that most of the participants were over the weight recommendation and the biggest health problems were the comorbidities obesity associated; fractures and scoliosis prevalence and medicine used were similar in other researches; the behavior problems such as tantrums, excessive crying, angry were typical from syndrome and; few participants were treated with growth hormone. The Study 2 the orientation guide and physical activity program for PWS were assessed as comprehension easily, although the participant A get less adherence that participant B A Síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) é uma anomalia genética decorrente da ausência de expressão gênica do cromossomo 15 (11.2q-13q) parental em uma região controlada por um imprinting genômico. A SPW é a síndrome genética mais comumente associada à obesidade, além de deficiência intelectual, déficits em funções executivas, problemas emocionais e de comportamento. Dada a carência de informações sobre a SPW no Brasil e de material informativo que auxilie pais e profissionais no manejo da síndrome, principalmente para práticas de atividade física, o presente trabalho foi composto por dois estudos: Estudo 1 que teve como objetivos levantar a condição de saúde dessa população no Brasil e o Estudo 2 que desenvolveu e avaliau um guia de orientações e um programa de atividade física para melhoria das condições de saúde de pessoas com SPW. Participaram do Estudo 1 quarenta pais de pessoas com SPW, contatados principalmente nas redes sociais. Para esta fase da pesquisa foram utilizados os seguintes inventários: Questionário sociodemográfico, Breve monitor de problemas (BPM-P 6/18), Questionário de Qualidade de Vida da Organização Mundial da Saúde (WHOQOL-Bref), Medical History and Exercise Questionnaire (Questionário de Histórico Médico e Exercício [QHME]), Nutrition Screen and Intake Form (Formulário de Ingestão e Rastreio Nutricional [FIRN]) e Parental Survey (Levantamento dos Pais [LP]). Para o Estudo 2, os pais de duas crianças receberam o programa de atividade física e o aplicaram com supervisão de um professor de educação física durante quatro semanas. Antes e após o início, os pais responderam aos questionários do Estudo 1 e as crianças foram avaliadas quanto: Medidas antropométricas, Aptidão Física (PROESPBR) e Atividade Autonômica Cardíaca por meio da Variabilidade da Frequência Cardíaca (VFC), Inventário de Comportamentos para Crianças e Adolescentes entre 6 e 18 anos e Escala Wechsler Abreviada de Inteligência (WASI). Como resultados verificou-se no estudo 1 que grande parte dos participantes estavam acima do peso recomendado e os principais problemas de saúde eram os associados à obesidade; prevalência de fraturas, escoliose e uso de medicamentos são condizentes com os encontrados em outras pesquisas; os problemas de comportamentos como crises de birras, acessos de choro e raiva são típicos da síndrome e; poucos participantes fizeram ou faziam terapia com o hormônio de crescimento. No Estudo 2 o guia de orientação e o programa de atividade física foram avaliados como facilmente compreensíveis, entretanto a participante A teve menor aderência que a participante B. A participante A não apresentou alteração na maioria dos testes pós intervenção, exceção à VFC que apresentou grande diminuição, provavelmente, em decorrência da menarca que acorreu próximo a avaliação. A participante B apresentou melhor em quase todos os parâmetros pós intervenção. Entretanto, a melhora da participantes B pode ser relacionada com o processo de maturação. A organização familiar tem grande influencia a aderência a um programa de atividade física realizado em casa. Como conclusões gerais deste estudo observamos que as características fenotípicas desta amostra com a SPW são similares aos reportados em estudos internacionais. O programa de atividade física para ser realizado em casa é passivo da estrutura familiar para ser efetivo. Um estudo com uma amostra maior e um grupo controle é requerido para avaliarmos o real potencial do programa de atividade física.

To carry out a review about Prader-Willi Syndrome based on the most recent data about the subject and to give recommendation for the general pediatricians for early diagnoses and follow-up.Scientific articles in the PubMed and SciELO databases. The research was not limited to a specific time period and included all articles in such databases.The Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder resulting from the loss of imprinted gene expression within the paternal chromosome 15q11-q13. PWS is characterized by endocrine abnormalities, such as growth hormone (GH) deficiency, obesity, central adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism, hypogonadism and complex behavioral and intellectual difficulties. PWS individuals also may present other comorbidities, such as sleep disorders, scoliosis, constipation, dental issues and coagulation disorders. The follow-up protocol of the Children's Institute at Universidade de São Paulo is based on four main pillars: diet, exercise, recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy and behavioral and cognitive issues. The diet must include a caloric restriction of 900 kcal/day, according to the Prader-Willi Eating Pyramid and exercise plan is focused on daily aerobic exercises and postural therapy. The rhGH therapy is highly recommended by the international scientific literature and must be started as soon as the diagnostic is made. The management of behavioral issues is based on strategies to establish routine and rules.If the general pediatrician becomes more familiar with PWS, the diagnosis and treatment will start earlier, which is essential to improve the quality of life and care for these individuals.Realizar uma revisão sobre a Síndrome de Prader-Willi (SPW) com base nas publicações mais recentes e fornecer recomendações ao pediatra geral para diagnóstico precoce e seguimento.Artigos publicados nas bases Pubmed e SciELO. A pesquisa não foi limitada a um período e incluiu todos os artigos das bases de dados.A SPW é uma síndrome genética rara, resultante da perda do imprinting gênico expresso no cromossomo paterno 15q11-q13, sendo caracterizada por alterações endocrinológicas, como deficiência de hormônio de crescimento, obesidade, insuficiência adrenal central, hipotireoidismo, hipogonadismo, além de alterações comportamentais e déficit intelectual. Há outras comorbidades associadas, como distúrbios de sono, escoliose, constipação, problemas dentários e alterações de coagulação. O protocolo de seguimento da SPW do Instituto da Criança da Universidade de São Paulo se baseia em quarto pilares principais: dieta, exercício físico, terapia com hormônio de crescimento humano recombinante (rhGH) e manejo comportamental e cognitivo. A dieta deve ser restrita a 900 kcal/dia, de acordo com a Pirâmide Alimentar do Prader-Willi, e o exercício físico deve ser diário, aeróbico e postural. A terapia com rhGH é fortemente recomendada pela literatura científica internacional e deve ser iniciada assim que for realizado o diagnóstico da síndrome. O manejo do comportamento é realizado com estratégias para estabelecer rotina e regras.Se a SPW se tornar mais familiar ao pediatra geral, o diagnóstico e o tratamento começarão mais precocemente, o que irá melhorar a qualidade de vida e os cuidados desses pacientes.

Objective: this study aimed to investigate the cognitive and behavioral profiles, as well as the psychiatric symptoms and disorders in children with three different genetic syndromes with similar sociocultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Methods: thirty-four children aged 6 to 16 years, with Williams-Beuren syndrome (n = 10), Prader-Willi syndrome (n = 11), and Fragile X syndrome (n = 13) from the outpatient clinics of Child Psychiatry and Medical Genetics Department were cognitively assessed through the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-III). Afterwards, a full-scale intelligence quotient (IQ), verbal IQ, performance IQ, standard subtest scores, as well as frequency of psychiatric symptoms and disorders were compared among the three syndromes. Results: significant differences were found among the syndromes concerning verbal IQ and verbal and performance subtests. Post-hoc analysis demonstrated that vocabulary and comprehension subtest scores were significantly higher in Williams-Beuren syndrome in comparison with Prader-Willi and Fragile X syndromes, and block design and object assembly scores were significantly higher in Prader-Willi syndrome compared with Williams-Beuren and Fragile X syndromes. Additionally, there were significant differences between the syndromes concerning behavioral features and psychiatric symptoms. The Prader-Willi syndrome group presented a higher frequency of hyperphagia and self-injurious behaviors. The Fragile X syndrome group showed a higher frequency of social interaction deficits; such difference nearly reached statistical significance. Conclusion: the three genetic syndromes exhibited distinctive cognitive, behavioral, and psychiatric patterns. Resumo: Objetivo: investigar o perfil cognitivo e comportamental, sintomas e transtornos psiquiátricos em crianças com três diferentes síndromes genéticas, com antecedentes socioculturais e socioeconômicos semelhantes. Métodos: trinta e quatro crianças, entre 6 e 16 anos, com as síndromes de Williams-Beuren (n = 10), de Prader-Willi (n = 11) e do X-Frágil (n = 13), dos ambulatórios de Psiquiatria Infantil e Genética Médica, foram avaliadas cognitivamente pela Escala Wechsler de Inteligência para Crianças (WISC-III). Posteriormente, o QI total, o QI Verbal, o QI de Execução, os escores ponderados dos subtestes e a frequência de sintomas e transtornos psiquiátricos foram comparados entre as síndromes. Resultados: diferenças significativas foram encontradas entre as síndromes quanto ao QI Verbal e os subtestes verbais e de execução. A análise Post-hoc demonstrou que os escores dos subtestes vocabulário e compreensão foram significativamente superiores na síndrome de Williams-Beuren em relação às síndromes de Prader-Willi e do X-Frágil, e os escores dos subtestes cubos e armar objetos foram significativamente superiores na síndrome de Prader-Willi em relação às síndromes de Williams-Beuren e do X-Frágil. Além disso, houve diferença significativa entre as síndromes quanto às características comportamentais e os sintomas psiquiátricos. O grupo com síndrome de Prader-Willi apresentou maior frequência de hiperfagia e comportamentos autolesivos. Já o grupo com síndrome do X-Frágil apresentou maior frequência do déficit da interação social. Esta diferença quase alcançou a significância estatística. Conclusão: as três síndromes genéticas apresentaram um padrão cognitivo, comportamental e psiquiátrico diferenciado quando foram comparadas entre si.
