Abstract
Sleep problems are highly prevalent in those with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). We propose this is secondary to multiple factors that directly and indirectly negatively impact sleep and circadian processes in those with NDDs, which in turn, further perturbs development, resulting in a "developmental and sleep/circadian-related encephalopathy." In this review, we discuss select NDDs with known or suspected sleep and circadian phenotypes. We also highlight important considerations when evaluating and treating sleep and circadian disorders in these populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) shows a collection of neurodevelopmental problems including mild to moderate intellectual disability, change-related anxiety, impulsivity, speech delay, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADH) and sleep disturbances. Sleep disorders, when present, have been treated in several populations with consecutive improvements in cognitive and behavioral aspects. AIMS To better understand the existing relationships between sleep disturbances and behavioral problems in SMS syndrome this study describes the sleep and behavior problems in the SMS and explores the possible relation between both. METHODS AND PROCEDURES 17 individuals with SMS (50% males; 11.2 ± 4.9 years old) and 12 individuals with typical development (50% male; 11.1 ± 4.4 years old) were investigated using the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children and the Child Behavior Checklist. RESULTS A high percentage (60%) of individuals with SMS have an indication of sleep disorders, being the most frequent disorders the sleep-wake transition disorders, and disorders of initiating and maintaining sleep with sleep latency higher than acceptable and total sleep time below acceptable. More than 94% of the SMS group presented clinical or borderline scores on the total behavioral problems scale. The most common behavioral problems were Externalizing Problems, Thought and Attention, ADH and Aggressive problems. There was a positive correlation between disorders of initiating and maintaining sleep, sleep-wake transition disorders, disorders of arousal, disorders of excessive somnolence and behavioral problems. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The worse the sleep disturbances investigated, the more severe the behavioral problems characteristics reinforcing the importance to address the sleep problems in the treatment of SMS individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that includes obesity and food-seeking/satiety-related behaviors. AIMS This study examined associations between food-related/hyperphagic behaviors, weight, and medication use in individuals with SMS. METHODS/PROCEDURES Caregivers of individuals with SMS in the Parents and Researchers Interested in SMS (PRISMS) Patient Registry completed a demographic/medication questionnaire, the Hyperphagia Questionnaire for Clinical Trials, and the Food Related Problems Questionnaire. OUTCOMES/RESULTS Among 49 participants (Mage = 16.41 ± 12.73 years, range = 4-69 years, 55% girls/women), individuals with SMS with overweight/obesity (n = 22) had worse overall food-related problems including greater impaired satiety (p < 0.05), maladaptive eating behaviors (p < 0.05), inappropriate response (p < 0.01), and hyperphagia (p < 0.01) compared to individuals of normal/underweight (n = 27). Those taking anti-depressants/anxiolytics (n = 16) had greater maladaptive eating behaviors (p < 0.05), hyperphagic behaviors (p < 0.05), and hyperphagic severity (p < 0.05) than those not taking anti-depressants/anxiolytics (n = 33). Boys/men with SMS had greater maladaptive eating behaviors (p < 0.05), inappropriate response (p < 0.05), and hyperphagic drive (p < 0.01) than girls/women with SMS. CONCLUSIONS/IMPLICATIONS Maladaptive food-related behaviors were higher in individuals with SMS with overweight/obesity, taking anti-depressants/anxiolytics, or who were male. Medications in this population should be chosen with weight-related side effects in mind.

Abstract
Time-restricted feeding (TRF, animal-based studies) and time-restricted eating (TRE, humans) are an emerging behavioral intervention approach based on the understanding of the role of circadian rhythms in physiology and metabolism. In this approach, all calorie intake is restricted within a consistent interval of less than 12 hours without overtly attempting to reduce calories. This article will summarize the origin of TRF/TRE starting with concept of circadian rhythms and the role of chronic circadian rhythm disruption in increasing the risk for chronic metabolic diseases. Circadian rhythms are usually perceived as the sleep-wake cycle and dependent rhythms arising from the central nervous system. However, the recent discovery of circadian rhythms in peripheral organs and the plasticity of these rhythms in response to changes in nutrition availability raised the possibility that adopting a consistent daily short window of feeding can sustain robust circadian rhythm. Preclinical animal studies have demonstrated proof of concept and identified potential mechanisms driving TRF-related benefits. Pilot human intervention studies have reported promising results in reducing the risk for obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Epidemiological studies have indicated that maintaining a consistent long overnight fast, which is similar to TRE, can significantly reduce risks for chronic diseases. Despite these early successes, more clinical and mechanistic studies are needed to implement TRE alone or as adjuvant lifestyle intervention for the prevention and management of chronic metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Smith-Magenis syndrome and Potocki-Lupski syndrome are rare autosomal dominant diseases. Although clinical phenotypes of adults and children have been reported, fetal ultrasonic phenotypes are rarely reported. A retrospective analysis of 6,200 pregnant women who received invasive prenatal diagnosis at Fujian Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital between October 2016 and January 2021 was performed. Amniotic fluid or umbilical cord blood was extracted for karyotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis. Single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis revealed six fetuses with copy number variant changes in the 17p11.2 region. Among them, one had a copy number variant microdeletion in the 17p11.2 region, which was pathogenically analyzed and diagnosed as Smith-Magenis syndrome. Five fetuses had copy number variant microduplications in the 17p11.2 region, which were pathogenically analyzed and diagnosed as Potocki-Lupski syndrome. The prenatal ultrasound phenotypes of the six fetuses were varied. The parents of two fetuses with Potocki-Lupski syndrome refused verification. Smith-Magenis syndrome in one fetus and Potocki-Lupski in another were confirmed as de novo. Potocki-Lupski syndrome in two fetuses was confirmed to be from maternal inheritance. The prenatal ultrasound phenotypes of Smith-Magenis syndrome and Potocki-Lupski syndrome in fetuses vary; single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis is a powerful diagnostic tool for these diseases. The ultrasonic phenotypes of these cases may enrich the clinical database.

Abstract
Purpose To assess the efficacy of tasimelteon to improve sleep in Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS). Methods A 9-week, double-blind, randomized, two-period crossover study was conducted at four US clinical centers. Genetically confirmed patients with SMS, aged 3 to 39, with sleep complaints participated in the study. Patients were assigned to treatment with tasimelteon or placebo in a 4-week crossover study with a 1-week washout between treatments. Eligible patients participated in an open-label study and were followed for >3 months. Results Improvement of sleep quality (DDSQ50) and total sleep time (DDTST50) on the worst 50% of nights were primary endpoints. Secondary measures included actigraphy and behavioral parameters. Over three years, 52 patients were screened, and 25 patients completed the randomized portion of the study. DDSQ50 significantly improved over placebo (0.4, p = 0.0139), and DDTST50 also improved (18.5 minutes, p = 0.0556). Average sleep quality (0.3, p = 0.0155) and actigraphy-based total sleep time (21.1 minutes, p = 0.0134) improved significantly, consistent with the primary outcomes. Patients treated for ≥90 days in the open-label study showed persistent efficacy. Adverse events were similar between placebo and tasimelteon. Conclusion Tasimelteon safely and effectively improved sleep in SMS.

Abstract
Individuals with Rare Genetic Neurodevelopmental Disorders (RGND) present with significant sleep problems and circadian rhythm abnormalities of uncertain aetiology. Abnormal melatonin secretion may play a role in sleep disturbance in individuals with higher incidence developmental disabilities, however, RGND research is limited. This review compared the melatonin profiles in a range of RGND with that of the general population and considered the impact of any differences on sleep. A systematic search identified 19 studies that met inclusion criteria. Each study was examined to extract data relating to the study design, participant characteristics, objectives, sleep measures and results, and melatonin measures and findings. Studies were evaluated using the BIOCROSS quality appraisal tool. Nine studies focussed on Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), the rest included individuals with Angelman (AS), Fragile-X (FXS), Prader-Willi (PWS), septo-optic dysplasia, PAX6/WAGR and Williams (WS) syndromes (N = 349). Individuals with RGND present with a range of sleep problems, particularly dyssomnias. The melatonin profile varied within and between RGND, with low nocturnal melatonin levels commonly reported. Understanding the relationship between specific sleep and melatonin parameters within RGND may help inform sleep intervention.

Abstract
Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), characterized by dysmorphic features, neurodevelopmental disorder, and sleep disturbance, is due to an interstitial deletion of chromosome 17p11.2 (90%) or to point mutations in the RAI1 gene. In this retrospective cohort, we studied the clinical, cognitive, and behavioral profile of 47 European patients with SMS caused by a 17p11.2 deletion. We update the clinical and neurobehavioral profile of SMS. Intrauterine growth was normal in most patients. Prenatal anomalies were reported in 15%. 60% of our patients older than 10 years were overweight. Prevalence of heart defects (6.5% tetralogy of Fallot, 6.5% pulmonary stenosis), ophthalmological problems (89%), scoliosis (43%), or deafness (32%) were consistent with previous reports. Epilepsy was uncommon (2%). We identified a high prevalence of obstipation (45%). All patients had learning difficulties and developmental delay, but ID range was wide and 10% of patients had IQ in the normal range. Behavioral problems included temper tantrums and other difficult behaviors (84%) and night-time awakenings (86%). Optimal care of SMS children is multidisciplinary and requires important parental involvement. In our series, half of patients were able to follow adapted schooling, but 70% of parents had to adapt their working time, illustrating the medical, social, educative, and familial impact of having a child with SMS.

Abstract
There are multiple disorders of neurodevelopment that present with co-occurring sleep disturbances. Many of these neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) include sleep disturbances in their diagnostic criteria. Neurobiological, genetic, and environmental factors overlap to cause different sleep disorders in individuals with NDD. Caregivers often present reporting either insomnia or hypersomnia, and based on the clinical history and findings from diagnostic tests, an appropriate diagnosis can be made. It is crucial that clinicians understand the different presentations of sleep disturbances in individuals with NDD.

Abstract
Caregivers of preschool and elementary school age children with Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), MBD5-associated neurodevelopmental disorder (MAND), and Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PTHS) were surveyed to assess sleep disturbance and to identify disorder-specific sleep problems. Because of overlapping features of these rare genetic neurodevelopmental syndromes, data were compared to reports of sleep disturbance in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). While similarities were observed with ASD, specific concerns between disorders differed, including mean nighttime sleep duration, daytime sleepiness, night wakings, parasomnias, restless sleep, and bedwetting. Overall, sleep disturbance in PTHS is significant but less severe than in SMS and MAND. The complexity of these conditions and the challenges of underlying sleep disturbance indicate the need for more support, education, and ongoing management of sleep for these individuals.

Abstract
Smith-Magenis syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by a microdeletion involving the retinoic acid-induced 1 (RAI1) gene that maps on the short arm of chromosome 17p11.2 or a pathogenic mutation of RAI1. Smith-Magenis syndrome affects patients through numerous congenital anomalies, intellectual disabilities, behavioral challenges, and sleep disturbances. The sleep abnormalities associated with Smith-Magenis syndrome can include frequent nocturnal arousals, early morning awakenings, and sleep attacks during the day. The sleep problems associated with Smith-Magenis syndrome are attributed to haploinsufficiency of the RAI1 gene. One consequence of reduced function of RAI1, and characteristic of Smith-Magenis syndrome, is an inversion of melatonin secretion resulting in a diurnal rather than nocturnal pattern. Treatment of sleep problems in people with Smith-Magenis syndrome generally involves a combination of sleep hygiene techniques, supplemental melatonin, and/or other medications, such as melatonin receptor agonists, β1-adrenergic antagonists, and stimulant medications, to improve sleep outcomes. Improvement in sleep has been shown to improve behavioral outcomes, which in turn improves the quality of life for both patients and their caregivers.

Abstract
Abstract
Study Objectives
The objectives of the study were (1) to compare both actigraphy and questionnaire-assessed sleep quality and timing in children with Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS) to a chronologically age-matched typically developing (TD) group and (2) to explore associations between age, nocturnal and diurnal sleep quality, and daytime behavior.
Methods
Seven nights of actigraphy data were collected from 20 children with SMS (mean age 8.70; SD 2.70) and 20 TD children. Daily parent/teacher ratings of behavior and sleepiness were obtained. Mixed linear modeling was used to explore associations between total sleep time and daytime naps and behavior.
Results
Sleep in children with SMS was characterized by shorter total sleep time (TST), extended night waking, shorter sleep onset, more daytime naps, and earlier morning waking compared to the TD group. Considerable inter-daily and inter-individual variability in sleep quality was found in the SMS group, so caution in generalizing results is required. An expected inverse association between age and TST was found in the TD group, but no significant association was found for the SMS group. No between-group differences in sleep hygiene practices were identified. A bidirectional negative association between TST and nap duration was found for the SMS group. In the SMS group, increased afternoon sleepiness was associated with increased irritability (p = .007) and overactivity (p = .005).
Conclusion
These findings evidence poor sleep quality in SMS and the need to implement evidence-based interventions in this population.

Abstract
Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), linked to Retinoic Acid Induced (RAI1) haploinsufficiency, is a unique model of the inversion of circadian melatonin secretion. In this regard, this model is a formidable approach to better understand circadian melatonin secretion cycle disorders and the role of the RAI1 gene in this cycle. Sleep-wake cycle disorders in SMS include sleep maintenance disorders with a phase advance and intense sleepiness around noon. These disorders have been linked to a general disturbance of sleep-wake rhythm and coexist with inverted secretion of melatonin. The exact mechanism underlying the inversion of circadian melatonin secretion in SMS has rarely been discussed. We suggest three hypotheses that could account for the inversion of circadian melatonin secretion and discuss them. First, inversion of the circadian melatonin secretion rhythm could be linked to alterations in light signal transduction. Second, this inversion could imply global misalignment of the circadian system. Third, the inversion is not linked to a global circadian clock shift but rather to a specific impairment in the melatonin secretion pathway between the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) and pinealocytes. The development of diurnal SMS animal models that produce melatonin appears to be an indispensable step to further understand the molecular basis of the circadian melatonin secretion rhythm.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide an update of the most recent studies on Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) with a focus on the unique pattern of behavioral and sleep disturbances associated with the condition. RECENT FINDINGS The recent literature on SMS has focused on the characteristic severe behavioral and sleep disturbances. A better understanding of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and common clinical course has helped further characterize SMS, while much is left to be discovered in regard to effective treatment/management. SUMMARY SMS is a difficult to manage genetic condition defined by pervasive and progressive behavioral and sleep disturbances with a unique pattern that can often be easily discerned from other neurodevelopmental disorders. Common behavioral features include maladaptive/self-injurious, aggressive, stereotypic, and the newly appreciated food seeking behaviors associated with SMS. In addition, there is a sleep disturbance defined by an altered circadian rhythm with frequent nighttime waking and daytime sleepiness, causing patients and families significant distress. Small studies have suggested some treatment/management approaches to the behavioral and sleep disturbances, however, much remains to be discovered.

Abstract
This review summarizes common microdeletion and microduplication syndromes and highlights important updates in patient-care needs for people with these conditions (22q11.2, 7q11.23, 17p11.2, and 16p11.2). These conditions are in chromosomal "hotspots" and have an estimated prevalence of 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 25,000. Some conditions have possible increased or decreased genetic risk of schizophrenia (22q11.2 deletion and duplication), or risk of aortic dilation (7q11.23 duplication) versus aortic stenosis (7q11.23 deletion). Many of these conditions are associated with developmental delay, autism, and/or multiple congenital anomalies and would not be detected with a karyotype. Chromosomal microarray analysis will detect all these conditions with a single screening test, allowing for the appropriate diagnosis and management of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Despite the numerous investigations carried out in relation to melatonin, there is a lack of knowledge about the specific melatonin secretion patterns in the diverse primary sleep disturbances. The objective of this study was to analyze the plasma melatonin concentrations in children with primary sleep disorders and the effects of melatonin therapy on their serum levels and their actigraphic sleep parameters. METHODS Fourteen participants (nine girls; seven to 14 years old) diagnosed with diverse primary sleep disorders were recruited. Four different melatonin secretion patterns were identified: low plasma melatonin levels, absence of a circadian rhythm, advanced acrophase, and delayed acrophase. A placebo (one week) was administered followed by three months of melatonin therapy (3 mg/night). Urinary 6-sulfatoxymelatonin levels, 24-hour plasma melatonin concentrations, and a seven-day actigraphic record were collected after both treatments. RESULTS After melatonin therapy, a significant increase (P < 0.001) of urinary 6-sulfatoxymelatonin excretion with a clear circadian variation was observed. Plasma melatonin concentrations were also significantly higher with a recovery in the circadian rhythm. Actual sleep time was significantly longer, with a substantial reduction in the sleep onset latency and night awakenings. No severe side effects were reported. CONCLUSIONS The main clinical implication of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of melatonin in three main circumstances: an insufficient hormone production, a disturbed circadian rhythm, and an advanced or delayed acrophase. As ongoing work, we are exploring the effect of different doses of melatonin on the regulation of its concentrations and of its secretion rhythm.

Abstract
enetic advances in the past three decades have transformed our understanding and treatment of many human diseases including neurogenetic disorders. Most neurogenetic disorders can be classified as "rare disease," but collectively neurogenetic disorders are not rare and are commonly encountered in general pediatric practice. The authors decided to select eight relatively well-known neurogenetic disorders including Down syndrome, Angelman syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, Smith-Magenis syndrome, congenital central hypoventilation syndrome, achondroplasia, mucopolysaccharidoses, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Each disorder is presented in the following format: overview, clinical characteristics, developmental aspects, associated sleep disorders, management and research/future directions.
