Abstract
- The association between organ laterality abnormalities and ciliary ultrastructural defect or genotype in primary ciliary dyskinesia is poorly understood.To determine if there is an association between presence/type of laterality abnormality and ciliary ultrastructural defect and genotype.Participants with primary ciliary dyskinesia in a multicenter, prospective study were grouped based on ciliary ultrastructural defect or genotype. In a retrospective analysis of this data, the association of ciliary ultrastructural defect or genotype and likelihood of a laterality abnormality was evaluated by logistic regression adjusted for presence of two loss-of-function versus one or more not-loss-of-function variants.Of 559 participants, 286 (51.2%), 215 (38.5%), and 58 (10.4%) were identified as having situs solitus, situs inversus totalis, and situs ambiguus, respectively; heterotaxy, defined as situs ambiguus with complex cardiovascular defects, was present in 14 (2.5%). Compared to group with inner dynein arm defects with microtubular disorganization, laterality defects were more likely in the outer dynein arm defects group (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.21-3.54, P0.01) and less likely in the normal/near normal ultrastructure group (OR 0.04, 95% CI 0.013-0.151, P0.01). Heterotaxy was present in 11 of 242 (4.5%) in the outer dynein arm defects group but zero of 96 in the inner dynein arm defects with microtubular disorganization group (P=0.038).In primary ciliary dyskinesia, risk of a laterality abnormality differs by ciliary ultrastructure defect. Pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying these differences require further exploration.
