A rare autoimmune connective tissue disorder characterized by abnormal hardening of the skin and sometimes other organs. It is classified into two main forms: localized scleroderma and systemic sclerosis (SSc), the latter comprising three subsets; diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc), limited cutaneous SSc (lcSSc) and limited SSc (lSSc). Localized scleroderma is the cutaneous form of scleroderma characterized by fibrosis of the skin causing cutaneous plaques (morphea) or strips (linear scleroderma). Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a generalized disorder characterized by fibrosis and vascular obliteration in the skin and organs, particularly, lungs, heart, and digestive tract. The exact cause of scleroderma is unknown. The disease originates from an autoimmune reaction, which leads to localized overproduction of collagen. In some cases, the condition is associated with exposure to chemicals. Other suggested causes include genetic and infectious mechanisms. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)

Further diagnostic criteria are bilateral abnormalities restricted to the mesial temporal lobes in brain MRI, cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis and/or epileptic or slow-wave activity involving the temporal lobes in EEG, and reasonable exclusion of alternative causes. Paraneoplastic or non-paraneoplastic antibodies against neuronal antigens may be found in serum and/or cerebrospinal fluid. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autoinflammatory disease and form of mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD), characterized by periodic attacks of fever and a systemic inflammatory reaction (cervical lymphadenopathy, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, arthralgia and skin manifestations). The disease usually begins in the first year of life and rarely after 5 years of age. HIDS is an inherited syndrome caused by mutations in the mevalonate kinase (MVK) gene (12q24). These MVK mutations lead to reduced, but not abolished enzyme activity. This in turn leads to impaired control of the production of inflammatory mediators, which in turn cause inflammatory (fever) attacks. The disease follows an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)

A rare autosomal ichthyosis syndrome with prominent neurologic signs characterized by the association of congenital ichthyosis with global developmental delay, intellectual disability, infantile-onset seizures, and spastic tetraplegia. Brain imaging may show delayed myelination and cerebral atrophy. Marked intrafamilial variability has been reported. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal ichthyosis syndrome with prominent neurologic signs characterized by the association of congenital ichthyosis with severe developmental delay, microcephaly, spastic tetraplegia, sensorineural hearing impairment, athetosis, and myoclonus. Marked epileptic discharges with occurrence of tonic spasms have also been reported. Cerebral MRI shows diffuse cortical atrophy. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1995. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal monosomy characterized by a variable phenotype with moderate to severe intellectual disability, behavioral problems, short stature, microcephaly, dysplastic nails, sparse hair, cleft palate and dysmorphic craniofacial features. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive acromesomelic dysplasia characterized by severe dwarfism (adult height <120 cm), both axial and appendicular involvement (shortening of the middle and distal segments of limbs and vertebral shortening), and with normal facial appearance and intelligence. It is a less severe form than acromesomelic dysplasia, Grebe type and acromesomelic dysplasia, Hunter-Thomson type. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by adolescent or adult onset of slowly progressive muscle weakness and atrophy of the distal lower limbs progressing to involve also the upper limbs and proximal muscles, and sensory impairment. Patients present gait disturbances and loss of reflexes, at later stages loss of ambulation, dysarthria, dysphagia, facial weakness, and impairment of respiratory muscles requiring assisted ventilation. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by adult onset of slowly progressive distal muscle weakness and atrophy, sensory impairment, and decreased or absent deep tendon reflexes predominantly in the lower extremities. Patients present gait disturbances but remain ambulatory. Mild involvement of the upper limbs may be seen. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by childhood to adult onset of slowly progressive, sometimes asymmetric distal muscle weakness and atrophy, as well as sensory impairment, predominantly of the lower limbs. Additional common features include pes cavus, kyphoscoliosis, ankle contractures, tremor, or urogenital dysfunction. Fasciculations and proximal involvement may be seen in some cases. Patients usually remain ambulatory. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by infantile onset of recurrent episodes of acute liver failure (resulting in chronic liver fibrosis and hepatosplenomegaly), delayed motor development, cerebellar dysfunction presenting as gait disturbances and intention tremor, neurogenic stuttering, and motor and sensory neuropathy with muscle weakness especially in the lower legs, and numbness. Mild intellectual disability was reported in some patients. MRI of the brain shows non-progressive atrophy of the cerebellar vermis and thinning of the optic nerve. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by motor-predominant axonal polyneuropathy due to a defect in copper metabolism. Patients become symptomatic in infancy or childhood with subtle motor delay or regression, manifesting with progressive weakness, muscle wasting, and absent reflexes in the lower and upper extremities. In addition, vibratory sensation is mildly diminished. Involvement of the face with weakness and fasciculation of facial muscles has also been described. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia (ARCA), characterized by progressive cerebellar ataxia associated with frequent oculomotor apraxia, severe neuropathy and an elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia characterized by early onset of non- or slowly progressive cerebellar signs and symptoms including truncal and gait ataxia, dysarthria, dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesis, tremor, and nystagmus. Delayed psychomotor development and intellectual disability are variable. Additional reported features are spasticity, hypotonia, cataracts, and sensorineural hearing loss, among others. Brain imaging shows cerebellar atrophy. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia characterized by early onset of slowly progressive cerebellar atrophy, clinically manifesting with extremity and truncal ataxia, global developmental delay, intellectual impairment, nystagmus, dysarthria, intention tremor, and pyramidal signs, among others. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
