TLDR
Three small and severely retarded girls lack the nail and terminal phalanx of the little finger, and the nails and distal phalanges of the lateral toes are hypoplastic or missing.
Abstract
Three small and severely retarded girls lack the nail and terminal phalanx of the little finger. The nails and distal phalanges of the lateral toes are hypoplastic or missing. Many other anomalies are present. There are no other affected persons in the families, and the cause of the syndrome has not been found.

TL;DR: It is shown that mutations in ARID1B are the main cause of CSS, accounting for 76% of identified mutations, and proposed genotype-phenotype correlations are important for molecular screening strategies.

The BAF complex in development and disease

TL;DR: Gaining a more elaborate insight into how BAF complex assembly influences its function and which role distinct subunits play will hopefully give rise to a better understanding of disease pathogenesis and ultimately to new treatments for many human diseases.

Clinical Definition of the Hurler-Hunter Phenotypes: A Review of 50 Patients

TL;DR: The biochemical classification of the various subdivisions of the Hurler-Hunter syndrome is still imperfect, and prognostication and genetic counselling must rest at present on accurate classified of the pediatric patient on clinical grounds.
