A rare genetic syndrome with characteristics of developmental delay and mild to moderate intellectual disability. Verbal language acquisition is usually delayed, with restricted language. The congenital heart defects are present in 41% of individuals, the most frequent being interatrial communication and interventricular communication.

Transmission is autosomal dominant however, in most situations, the pathogenic variants arise de novo, and thus, the risk of sibling recurrence is low. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)

A rare hepatic disease characterized by graft infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) after liver transplantation, due to persistence and reactivation of HBV in extrahepatic sites (also despite previous clearance of the HBs antigen from serum, as shown by laboratory examination), followed by re-invasion of the graft. It may develop between two weeks and several years post transplantation. Clinico-pathological features are variable and range from mild self-limited hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, and fulminant hepatitis, to fibrosing cholestatic hepatitis. The condition is associated with significantly reduced graft survival rates and overall patient survival. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hepatic disease characterized by recurrence of hepatitis C virus infection after liver transplantation, leading to liver injury with features resembling those observed in the non-transplant graft, and typically developing after three months post-transplantation. The clinical course is highly variable, although patients most commonly develop progressive chronic liver disease with higher viral loads and more rapid fibrosis progression than in the immunocompetent population. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hepatic disease characterized by the overlap of primary biliary cholangitis and/or primary sclerosing cholangitis with autoimmune hepatitis, defined by the presence of at least two of the three recognized biochemical, serological, and histological criteria of each disease. The onset of the overlapping diseases can be simultaneous or sequential, with a variable interval of up to several years. Age of onset, gender predisposition, and clinical phenotype vary between each of the diseases, and the clinical presentation ranges from asymptomatic disease or unspecific symptoms such as fatigue, arthralgia, and pruritus, to established cirrhosis and decompensation, or also acute, fulminant hepatitis and liver failure. Association with extrahepatic autoimmune diseases is common. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hereditary Transthyretin (TTR)-related systemic amyloidosis (ATTR) with predominant cardiac involvement resulting from myocardial infiltration of abnormal amyloid protein. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hereditary angioedema characterized by potentially life-threatening episodes of subcutaneous and/or submucosal edema without urticaria, associated with C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency. Hereditary angioedema (HAE) type 1 is caused by quantitative, HAE type 2 by qualitative defects of C1-INH. The two subtypes are clinically indistinguishable. Patients may present at any age (but most commonly in childhood) with recurrent attacks of nonpitting edema of the skin, severe abdominal symptoms such as pain and swelling, and/or respiratory distress due to upper respiratory airways involvement. Genital, bladder, muscle, or joint swelling may occur in some cases. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hereditary ataxia characterized by a progressive cerebellar ataxia associated with disruption of visual fixation by saccadic intrusions (overshooting horizontal saccades with macrosaccadic oscillations and increased velocity of larger saccades). It presents with progressive gait, trunk and limb ataxia with pyramidal tract signs (increased tendon reflexes and Babinski sign), myoclonic jerks, fasciculations, cerebellar dysarthria, sensorimotor axonal neuropathy with impaired joint position, vibration, temperature, pain sensations, pes cavus, and saccadic intrusions with characteristic overshooting horizontal saccades, macrosaccadic oscillations, and increased velocity of larger saccades, without other eye movement disturbances. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hereditary ataxia characterized by delayed motor milestones in early infancy, hypotonia, ataxic gait, intention tremor, nystagmus, dysarthric speech, and variable learning difficulties. Neuroimaging shows a mixed picture of cerebellar hypoplasia and degeneration, with an almost absent inferior lobule and thinning of the folia of the vermis. In addition, cisterna magna and fourth ventricle are enlarged with relative sparing of the brain stem volume. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hereditary ataxia characterized by early onset symptomatic generalized epilepsy, progressive cerebellar ataxia resulting in significant difficulties to walk or wheelchair dependency, and intellectual disability. There is evidence the disease is caused by homozygous mutation in the TDP2 gene on chromosome 6p22. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare hereditary ataxia characterized by recurrent episodes of ataxia with variable frequency and duration, associated with slurred speech, generalized muscle weakness and balance disturbance. Other symptoms may occur between episodes, including intention tremor, gait ataxia, mild dysarthria, myokymia, migraine and nystagmus. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)

A rare hereditary basal epidermolysis bullosa simplex characterized by mild, generalized trauma-induced scale crusts and intermittent blistering, sometimes combined with erosions and bleeding, recovering with slight scarring and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
