Talk:Joubert syndrome

note
My name is Mackenzie and I wont to tell you about my friens Katie and Ab. Katie is eleven years old and Abi is nine years old. They have Joubert syndrome. I am researching the disease so that you can learn to prevent or learn to live with a child with this disease.If you havent heard about this disease Iwill let you know that your child or friend/l.,,   will be missing a piece of their brain. You can hav genatic testing to see if your child will have the disease. That might be a good thing to do. I hope you learn alot.

New paper: Joubert and ciliopathy
Was searching for other ciliopathic diseases today and one search returned this VERY recent paper. CC2D2A Is Mutated in Joubert Syndrome and Interacts with the Ciliopathy-Associated Basal Body Protein CEP290. Am J Hum Genet. 2008 Oct 22. PMID: 18950740 Thought this might be of interest to some editors in improving this article. N2e (talk) 04:46, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

ethnicities, statistics, occurrence etc.
Should be mentioned somewhere what ethnicities are at a higher risk of being born with these mutations, as well as statistics for the overall population etc.

The disorder is characterized by absence or underdevelopment of the cerebellar vermis and a malformed brain stem (molar tooth sign).

OK. describe the "molar tooth sign". Wikipedia is for the general public. It is an encyclopaedia. It is not a Medical Textbook for Physicians to consult. What is the "molar tooth sign"? Thank you very much! 69.166.28.32 (talk) 16:07, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
