Current Clinical Studies
My major research focuses on a rare genetic microdeletion disorder, Williams syndrome. From my involvement in the diagnosis and management of large numbers of patients with Williams syndrome, several clinical studies on the natural history of this disorder have emerged. Clinical information and patient samples are being provided in a collaborative fashion to assist in the delineation of the Williams syndrome critical region. Current information suggests that the Williams syndrome deletion is >100 kb in size, involving loss of the gene, elastin, and additional flanking genes as well. Thus, Williams syndrome is likely to be another example of a contiguous gene deletion syndrome.

The Genetics Of Deafness
by Beth A. Pletcher, MD, November 1999 It may be hard to believe, but almost 7% of the population of the United States is deaf or hearing impaired. This amounts to about 20 million people across the country. You might say that this makes sense when one considers the ever increasing population of senior citizens, but you may be surprised to learn that 50% of severe to profound hearing impairment is genetically determined. Other Mendelian disorders that have hearing loss as a frequent component include: In addition to these conditions, there are many more multiple anomaly, biochemical and cytogenetic disorders that have hearing loss as a common finding. For a child with congenital hearing loss a number of simple screening tools can be employed to rule out some of these conditions that have additional medical implications. A reasonable work-up for an infant or child with significant hearing loss without obvious cause would include: Genes at Work Home UMDNJ Home Top of page

    Opting for pre-emptive transplantation
    Judith Argles MA CQSW Dip Soc Studies Paediatric Renal Social Worker Johanne Anderson MSc BSc DipHE RN(Child) Staff Nurse, Children and Young Person's Kidney Unit, Nottingham City Hospital NHS Trust Pre-emptive transplantation (PET) is a treatment option offered by 70% of UK renal units to children with chronic renal failure who are approaching the need for renal replacement therapy. Dialysis is avoided by planning intervention before the child develops symptoms.
    Key points
    • Pre-emptive transplantation is offered by 70% of UK renal units and should be seriously considered for children approaching end-stage renal failure.
    • PET has many social, psychological and physical benefits, including avoiding the complications of bone disease, nutritional problems and anaemia that are associated with dialysis.
    • A team strategy is essential when preparing a family for PET - the family should ideally have regular discussions with the nephrologist, dietitian, social worker and community nurse.

    Hearing Loss in Children Hearing loss in children can be frightening and confusing to parents.
    Children with otitis media (ear infection) or otitis media with effusion (OME)
    (fluid in the ear), may have temporary hearing loss due to the fluid in the middle ear. Upon removal of the fluid, hearing usually returns to normal. This is known as conductive hearing loss. This usually means that sound
    waves which hit the ear drum have a difficult time being transmitted from the ear drum into the inner ear (hearing nerve). Sensorineural hearing loss means the
    sound reaches the inner ear, but some defect in the hearing organ (cochlea),
    nerve, or brain is the cause of the hearing loss. A less common form of hearing loss is known as mixed hearing loss. In this
    form of hearing loss, there are components of both conductive hearing loss and
    sensorineural (nerve) hearing loss.

    ANAT3311 Class Notes Developmental Anomalies Genetic Disorder Journal Review Article Hearing 1. Steel, K.P. and Brown, S.D.M. Trends in Genetics Hearing Hearing is a complex physical and neurological process. Developmental loss of hearing can result from many different causes including genetic and viral infection (rubella weeks 7-8). These generate either structural or neurological abnormalities or loss. Auricular abnormalities may also be used as an indicator of abnormal organ development, without necessarily effecting hearing.

    Research Interests
    Dr. Barker's interests include the genetic basis of inherited susceptibility to disease in individuals and populations. One area of current research focus is on the disease genetics of type IV collagens, which are involved in susceptibility to renal failure, hearing loss and other pathological conditions caused by abnormal basement membranes. A second focus is on the contribution of specific genomic rearrangements to the etiology of sporadic breast cancer. High molecular weight DNA samples have been prepared from over 1000 sporadic breast tumors and these are being examined for rearrangements in specific genes for which changes in expression may contribute to the development of neoplasia.
