Abstract
Pierre Robin sequence (PRS) is frequently co-occurring with other non-PRS congenital anomalies. The types and the prevalence of anomalies co-occurring with PRS vary in the reported studies. The aims of this report was to study the types and the prevalence of the anomalies co-occurring with PRS in a well-studied population northeastern France. The types and the prevalence of anomalies co-occurring in cases with PRS were ascertained in all terminations of pregnancy, stillbirths and live births in 387,067 births occurring consecutively during the period 1979-2007 in the area covered by our registry of congenital anomalies which is population-based, 89 cases of PRS were registered during the study period with a prevalence of 2.29 per 10,000 births, 69.7% of the cases had associated non-PRS anomalies. Chromosomal abnormalities were present in 10 (11.2%) cases including three 22 q11.2 deletion. Non-chromosomal recognizable conditions were diagnosed in 27 cases (30.3%) including 10 Stickler syndrome, 8 Treacher Collins syndrome, 3 cases with short stature and 6 other syndromes. Multiple congenital anomalies (MCA) were present in 25 cases (28.1%). The most frequent MCA were in the ear, face and neck (35 out of 98 anomalies, 35.7%), cardiovascular (18 anomalies, 18.4%), musculoskeletal (11 anomalies, 11.2%), central nervous (7 anomalies, 7.1%), urinary (6 anomalies, 6.1%), and eye (6 anomalies, 6.1%) system. The high prevalence of associated anomalies justifies a thorough screening for other congenital anomalies in cases with PRS.

[PMID: 37369383 DOI: 10.1136/archdischild-2023-325556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Birth prevalence of Robin sequence (RS) is commonly reported as 1 case per 8000-14 000 live births. These estimates are based on single-source case ascertainment and may miss infants who did not require hospital admission or those without overt upper airway obstruction at birth. OBJECTIVES To identify the true birth prevalence of RS with cleft palate in the UK and Ireland from a population-based birth cohort with high case ascertainment. METHODS Active surveillance of RS with cleft palate was carried out in the UK/Ireland using dual sources of case ascertainment: British Paediatric Surveillance Unit (BPSU) reporting card and nationally commissioned cleft services. Clinical data were collected from notifying clinicians at two time points. RESULTS 173 live-born infants met the surveillance case definition, giving a birth prevalence of 1 case per 5250 live births (19.1 per 100 000 (95% CI 16.2 to 21.9)), and 1:2690 in Scotland. 47% had non-isolated RS, with Stickler syndrome the most common genetic diagnosis (12% RS cases). Birth prevalence derived from the combined data sources was significantly higher than from BPSU surveillance alone. CONCLUSIONS Birth prevalence of RS in the UK/Ireland derived from active surveillance is higher than reported by epidemiological studies from several other countries, and from UK-based anomaly registries, but consistent with published retrospective data from Scotland. Dual case ascertainment sources enabled identification of cases with mild or late-onset airway obstruction that were managed without hospital admission. Studies of aetiology and equivalent well-designed epidemiological studies from other populations are needed to investigate the identified geographical variability in birth prevalence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pierre Robin sequence (PRS) is a rare congenital anomaly. Respiratory disorders and feeding difficulties represent the main burden. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of PRS using a cohort of cases from EUROCAT, the European network of population-based registries of congenital anomalies. METHODS We analysed cases of PRS born in the period 1998-2017 collected by 29 population-based congenital anomaly registries in 17 different countries. We calculated prevalence estimates, prenatal detection rate, survival up to 1 week, and proportions of associated anomalies. The effect of maternal age was tested using a Poisson regression model. RESULTS Out of 11 669 155 surveyed births, a total of 1294 cases of PRS were identified. The estimate of the overall prevalence was 12.0 per 100 000 births (95% CI 9.9, 14.5). There was a total of 882 (68.2%) isolated cases, and the prevalence was 7.8 per 100 000 births (95% CI 6.7, 9.2). A total of 250 cases (19.3%) were associated with other structural congenital anomalies, 77 cases (6.0%) were associated with chromosomal anomalies and 77 (6.0%) with genetic syndromes. The prenatal detection rate in isolated cases was 12.0% (95% CI 9.8, 14.5) and increased to 16.0% (95% CI 12.7, 19.7) in the sub-period 2008-2017. The prevalence rate ratio of non-chromosomal cases with maternal age ≥35 was higher than in cases with maternal age <25 for total (PRR 1.26, 95% CI 1.05, 1.51) and isolated cases (PRR 1.33, 95% CI 1.00, 1.64). Survival of chromosomal cases (94.2%) and multiple anomaly cases (95.3%) were lower than survival of isolated cases (99.4%). CONCLUSIONS This epidemiological study using a large series of cases of PRS provides insights into the epidemiological profile of PRS in Europe. We observed an association with higher maternal age, but further investigations are needed to test potential risk factors for PRS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study examines phenotypic presentation and perioperative outcomes of cleft-related procedures for infants with cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) and prenatal opioid exposure. DESIGN This is a retrospective review of infants with prenatal opioid exposure treated for CL/P from 2008 to 2018. SETTING Patients cared for at a tertiary center from 2008 to 2018. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS Eighteen patients with documented prenatal opioid exposure and CL/P had primary repairs in our unit. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) The phenotypes of CL/P were characterized. Demographic data regarding additional exposures, as well as associated medical and social comorbidities were recorded. Outcome variables included operative delays, perioperative complications, and loss of follow-up. RESULTS Isolated cleft palate (CP; 67%) was overrepresented among patients with prenatal opioid exposure and CL/P, as was Robin sequence (50% in isolated CP). Fifty-six percent had exposure to additional substances. A majority (67%) had other medical conditions or anomalies, and 17% had known genetic syndromes. Seventy-two percent were in state custody. Thirty-nine percent of exposed patients had delays in their planned operative dates due to medical and/or social factors. There were no postoperative readmissions following cleft procedures. Lack of follow-up was noted in 33% of patients. CONCLUSIONS Infants with CL/P who have prenatal opioid exposure are likely to have additional medical conditions and complex social challenges.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the annual percentage of women of reproductive age with private insurance or Medicaid who had opioid prescription claims during 2013-2017 and describe trends over time. DESIGN A secondary analysis of insurance claims data from IBM MarketScan® Commercial and Multi-State Medicaid Databases to assess outpatient pharmacy claims for prescription opioids among women aged 15-44 years during 2013-2017. PARTICIPANTS Annual cohorts of 3.5-3.8 million women aged 15-44 years with private insurance and 0.9-2.1 million women enrolled in Medicaid. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE The percentage of women aged 15-44 years with outpatient pharmacy claims for opioid prescriptions. RESULTS During 2013-2017, the proportion of women aged 15-44 years with private insurance who had claims for opioid prescriptions decreased by 22.1 percent, and among women enrolled in Medicaid, the proportion decreased by 31.5 -percent. CONCLUSIONS Opioid prescription claims decreased from 2013 to 2017 among insured women of reproductive age. However, opioid prescription claims remained common and were more common among women enrolled in Medicaid than those with private insurance; additional strategies to improve awareness of the risks associated with opioid prescribing may be needed.
