    Extractions: We welcome you to the web-based IRSA Gene Variation Database (RettBASE). This database has been constructed by merging mutation and polymorphism data from the published literature pertaining to Rett syndrome and related clinical disorders, and by incorporating unpublished mutation and polymorphism data that have been submitted directly to us. RettBASE is updated on a very frequent basis manually by our curators to ensure the validity of the data being sent to us. A search engine has been constructed allowing you to perform searches of varying complexity, to obtain information relevant to your research or clinical questions. We invite you to: Initial construction and maintenance of RettBASE could not have been possible without the very generous financial support of the International Rett Syndrome Association We would also like to acknowledge the New South Wales Rett Syndrome Association and the Rett Syndrome Australian Research Fund for their generous support of the NSW Rett Syndrome Research Team at the Children's Hospital at Westmead.

Dani (my daughter), is not a problem herself (now), but her condition, Rett syndrome, does pose challenges I never dreamed I would face, much less have to contend with on a daily basis.

    Extractions: Syndrome Association I'm Paula, I'm 45, and I've been married to Graham for 21 years.  We have 3 beautiful children, now ages 15, 9, and 7.  It's difficult to get a good picture of all 3 of our kids together because our middle child, Kelsey, has Rett Syndrome.  The 'short' of RS is that it is a neurologic, developmental disorder that is believed to affect almost exclusively females.  Its symptoms usually begin to manifest themselves sometime during the 2nd year of life, and one of the main hallmarks of RS is a 'hand-washing', wringing, clapping, tapping, or hand-mouthing motion.  For a much better and more thorough description of RS, check out IRSA's (the International Rett Syndrome Association) web site. By creating this website, it is my hope that Rett Syndrome can more and more, be brought to public attention - especially now that the GENE HAS BEEN FOUND - that the researchers out there will look at a beautiful little girl like mine and become interested enough to think that RS is an important disorder to study and to *cure*.

Team Kruger, led by renowned paddlers Verlen Kruger and Bob Bradford, placed first in their specialized canoe at 24 days, 17 hours, 51 minutes. Team Double Helix, featuring the event's unique flagship kayak called the Double Helix, placed second at 26 days, 6 hours, 40 minutes.

    Extractions: Rett Syndrome Rett syndrome is a severe neurological disorder that randomly strikes 1 in 10,000 to 15,000 young girls within the first two years of life. Rett Syndrome affects males also but few are known to survive to pregnancy Rett Syndrome can affect any child in any family. 99.5% of those affected by Rett syndrome have no case history in their family with Rett syndrome. After an apparently normal 6-18 months of development, a typical Rett syndrome child begins to suffer the loss of speech and the ability to walk normally. This is soon followed by: the loss of purposeful hand use which is often replaced by hand wringing or clapping decreased growth (height and head size) breathing dysfunctions (over 14 breathing dysfunctions have been identified to date) seizures, seizure like behavior and tremors

It does not appear to affect boys. The cause in unknown and it usually does not affect more than one girl in a family. Symptoms Girls with Rett Syndrome develop normally for the first 6 months of life. Between 6 months and 2½ years (often between 6 - 18 months), their development slows up and may even go backwards. They become less interested in play, lose the ability to speak and possibly become irritable. They stop using their hands purposefully and they may, instead, begin to move their hands in a repetitive way, often with hand-wringing movements. Epilepsy is not uncommon, but usually begins after the age of 2 years. The seizures may be of various types including generalised tonic clonic, absences, myoclonic jerks, atonic and tonic. Often, more than one seizure types is present. Frequently, girls with Rett Syndrome have periods of rapid or slow breathing. These periods are sometimes associated with faints, which can be mistaken for epileptic seizures.

    Extractions: helpful? yes no Rett syndrome is the clinical expression of the Rett disorder, a complex, genetic, neurological condition which affects far more girls than boys. Although signs may not be initially obvious, it is present at birth. It usually becomes more evident during the second year. People with Rett syndrome are almost always profoundly and multiply disabled and totally dependent on others for all their needs throughout their lives but severity may vary considerably. The baby with classic (easily recognised) Rett syndrome is usually placid and rather inactive. Learning may be slow but progress may reach the 9 or 12 month stage, occasionally beyond. Within a few weeks of birth the child's head size may fail to increase at the normal rate indicating failure of the brain to grow normally, although head size may remain within normal limits. Strange finger movements develop with the hands twisting and squeezing rather than reaching out to explore. Usually between one and three years the abnormal hand movements become more obvious and purposeful use is reduced or lost. During this time of regression the child may be agitated and distressed and breathing rhythm becomes irregular. Brain scans may confirm poor growth of the brain and after some months the electroencephalogram may show abnormal electrical activity in the brain cells (an electroencephalogram is the tracing which shows the electrical activity due to the neurones on the surface of the brain). There is disturbance of several substances involved in brain development and mature function. The diagnosis is confirmed by detecting a mutation (fault) on MECP2, a gene at the tip of the X chromosome. In just a few people with all or most of the clinical signs of Rett a mutation has not been found and it is possible that these people have a fault affecting control of MECP2 or of genes whose activity should be regulated by MECP2.
