Growth in individuals with SATB2-associated syndrome.
American Journal of Medical Genetics. Part A 2022 July 16
SATB2-associated syndrome (SAS) is an autosomal dominant multisystemic disorder caused by alterations in the SATB2 gene. In addition to a predominant neurodevelopmental phenotype, individuals with SAS often present with feeding difficulties and growth retardation that persist past infancy. In this study, we present growth and measurement data from 211 individuals (53.6% male, 46.4% female) with SAS due to different molecular mechanisms. To delineate growth in this population, we constructed SAS-specific growth charts by sex from birth to 10 years of age. Smoothed SAS percentiles were superimposed with normative percentiles from WHO (birth to <24 months) and CDC (24 months to 10 years) growth charts. Individuals with SAS tend to display slower postnatal growth with 22.2% (32/144), 19.0% (26/137), and 21.6% having at least one weight, height, or weight-for-length /body mass index (BMI) measurement below -2 standard deviations, respectively. The SAS 50th centile BMI was consistently below the normative data 50th centile and negative mean Z-scores were seen across almost all age groups analyzed for both genders. Individuals with chromosomal abnormalities displayed significantly lower weight for age Z-score, height for age Z-scores, occipitofrontal head circumference for age Z-scores, and BMI for age Z-scores compared to either missense or null variants.
