The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The case of a male infant with neonatal encephalopathy and a de novo MECP2 mutation is reported. The presenting phenotype of decelerating head growth, spasticity, scoliosis, and central respiratory disturbance raised suspicions of the diagnosis. Neonatal encephalopathy in males is part of a spectrum of disorders caused by MECP2 dysfunction.
