Interested persons may review the complete User Notice and Privacy Notice for Regulations.gov at http://www.regulations.gov/#!privacyNotice.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Prior to the FCIC offering coverage for prevented planting, prevented planting payments were linked to
Further, the
FCIC contracted to review the prevented planting policy and determine appropriate pre-planting costs to be covered, evaluate the reasonableness of current prevented planting payments by crop and region, examine alternative methods and approaches to the program, provide alternative payment amounts as appropriate, and develop a plan for routinely updating those amounts. For some crops or crops in certain regions, the contractor suggested FCIC raise or lower the current prevented planting coverage levels. RMA shared this study with stakeholders to determine if the recommendations made sense to growers. This final rule with comment makes changes to allow for revisions to the prevented planting coverage levels, based on the contractor's findings and report, stakeholder comments in response to the contractors report, and FCIC's re-examination of the evaluation and those stakeholder comments received. This rule allows for any new percentages of prevented planting coverage that FCIC determines provides adequate protection for those costs incurred even though the crop was prevented from planting to be specified in the actuarial documents and removes them from the Crop Provisions. The rule also leaves the option for additional prevented planting coverage if offered in the actuarial documents. This will allow FCIC to expedite its update of the percentages in response to changing production conditions.
Effective Date
FCIC is exempt from all requirements in the administrative procedure provisions in 5 U.S.C. 553, which includes the 30-day effective date. This rule allows FCIC to make the changes to the Crop Provisions in time for 2017 spring planted crops. Therefore, this final rule is effective when published in the
Executive Order 12866
This rule has been determined to be not significant for the purposes of Executive Order 12866 and, therefore, it has not been reviewed by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
Pursuant to the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the collections of information in this rule have been approved by OMB under control numbers 0563-0085, 0563-0083, and 0563-0053.
E-Government Act Compliance
FCIC is committed to complying with the E-Government Act of 2002, to promote the use of the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal governments and the private sector. This rule contains no Federal mandates (under the regulatory provisions of title II of the UMRA) for State, local, and tribal governments or the private sector. Therefore, this rule is not subject to the requirements of sections 202 and 205 of UMRA.
Executive Order 13132
It has been determined under section 1(a) of Executive Order 13132, Federalism, that this rule does not have sufficient implications to warrant consultation with the States. The provisions contained in this rule will not have a substantial direct effect on States, or on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
Executive Order 13175
This rule has been reviewed in accordance with the requirements of Executive Order 13175, "Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments." Executive Order 13175 requires Federal agencies to consult and coordinate with tribes on a government-to-government basis on policies that have tribal implications, including regulations, legislative comments or proposed legislation, and other policy statements or actions that have substantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

Debian Project Wants User Art for "Squeeze" OS
Contribute your own Squeeze Artwork and it may become the default background for the next version of Debian.
Contribute your own Squeeze Artwork and it may become the default background for the next version of Debian.
As the Debian Project readies Debian 6.0, (codename: Squeeze), project leader Stefano Zacchiroli has implemented a contest to decide the next desktop and boot theme. The aptly named Squeeze Artwork Contest, allows artists to submit their designs to the Debian wiki where members of the community can view the theme and access the SVN.
Two submissions have been made. The first theme, Nightly , features a starry night sky with the trademark Debian swirl in the center of the screen. The second proposal, Space Fun, features an illustration of the planet Saturn, with the Debian swirl made of stars and the trail of a Saturn rocket. The tagline, "The Universal Operating System" is present in the splash.
To create a wiki entry for your Debian theme, head to wiki.debian.org/DebianArt/Themes/. For art requirements, click here.

Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology | Year: 2015
Cu-Zn-Al catalysts were prepared using microwave-assisted process and co-precipitation methods. The prepared catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, XPS and TPD of ammonia and their catalytic activity for the hydrogenolysis of glycerol to propylene glycol was also examined. The XRD patterns of Cu/Zn/Al mixed catalysts show CuO and ZnO crystalline phase regardless of preparation method. The highest glycerol hydrogenolysis conversion is obtained with the catalyst having a Cu/Zn/Al ratio of 2:2:1. Hydrogen pre-reduction of catalysts significantly enhanced both glycerol conversions and selectivity to propylene glycol. The glycerol conversion increased with an increase of reaction temperature. However, the selectivity to propylene glycol increased with an increase of temperature, and then declined to 30.5% at 523 K. Copyright © 2015 American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.

Applied Catalysis A: General | Year: 2014
Polystyrene-supported quaternized ammonium salt catalysts (PS-alkyl-AX) were synthesized and characterized by various physicochemical analytic methods such as EA, FT-IR, XPS, and SEM. The reactivity of the catalysts was investigated for the synthesis of allyl glycidyl carbonate from CO2 and allyl glycidyl ether under mild reaction conditions. The PS-alkyl-AX catalysts showed good catalytic activity without using any solvent due to the synergistic effect of NH functional group and quaternary ammonium salt structure. Theoretical studies using density functional theory (DFT) was applied to investigate the reaction mechanism. The PS-hexyl-MeI catalyst was readily recoverable and reusable in subsequent reaction cycles without a significant loss in its activity. © 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Research on Chemical Intermediates | Year: 2011
Ionic liquids (ILs) immobilized onto a structurally modified Merrifield peptide resin (MPR) were prepared through the reaction of imidazole with alkoxylated MPR. Elemental analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations showed that the immobilized IL groups were effectively incorporated on the support. The MPR-supported ILs (MPR-ILs) proved to be effective heterogeneous catalysts for the synthesis of glycerol carbonate (GC) from glycerol and urea. MPR-ILs with longer alkyl chain linkers and fewer sterically hindered counteranions resulted in higher conversion of glycerol. High temperature, high degree of vacuum and the presence of zinc oxide co-catalyst were favorable for glycerol conversion. The MPR-ILs could be reused in up to three consecutive runs without significant loss of their catalytic activity. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

It took me until the start of the 2nd trimester for my stomach to actually begin growing, by which time my bras also began to feel less comfy. While it didn't really look like my boobs were any bigger, my abdomen was, which meant I was outgrowing my small banded bras as fast as my leggings.
Something else I've discovered with expanding in circumference is that bras are fitting me differently now too, it's not just about the band length. The range in between the curve of my infant stomach and my boobs is moving closer day by day, and with it goes the capability to wear any kind of band or circuitry without discovering it. I'm way more conscious fabrics than I utilized to be, and where space is at a premium, my band requires to be extremely helpful and without risk of digging.
I'm certainly erring more on the soft cup design when I'm totally fed up with the conformity of wired bras and I simply want to feel unwinded and comfy. For my next maternity bra I was keen for it to be wire-free and all about unfussy natural shape.
The fantastic folk at Brastop desired to send me a maternity bra and I picked the Royce Charlotte Comfort Bra, a design I actually wouldn't have considered trying in the past now however since ending up being pregnant I've realised how choices, taste and concerns change together with your bump and boobs.
The Charlotte collection by Royce is an extremely popular line that offers both nursing and comfort versions of bra to cater for the needs of the pregnant, breastfeeding and those who don't like wires. As I'm wanting something more about comfort than the feeding functionality right now, I decided for the latter.
Charlotte is really much a complete bust friendly bra, readily available in a large range of sizes from 28-40 cups and backs DD-K (although not all cups run to all bands), and comes you can check here with a choice of fundamental colours: black, white and naked.
A fast glance at Charlotte would presume this is a fairly fundamental bra, but looks trick. Royce have achieved something excellent in this basic design, a modest aesthetic with remarkable performance.
The soft cupped polyamide and cotton mix bra has a silky, soft sheen surface with a sheer polka dot mesh to the upper cups developing a modern yet retro inspired appearance. A deep flexible band with a soft ribbed texture runs along the foundation of the bra, fastening on a 3 hook by 4 columns wide closure, while sturdy, wide straps offer semi adjustability.
The band does appear to run small in this style and I found the 34H to be the best fitting for me. I wear the band secured on the second to last (3rd) column which provides me the most comfy and helpful hold. I do still get some minor marking along where the band has been however it's definitely unnoticeable when I use it.
The straps are truly easy to slide and change into place, and I discovered that despite them being only semi-adjustable I have sufficient space for my needs. My bust is relatively low positioned on my body so anybody with a similar shape to mine or have greater rooted breasts will be more than all right.
It took me until the start of the Second trimester for my tummy to actually begin growing, by which time my bras also started to feel less comfortable. While it didn't truly look like my boobs were any larger, my abdominal area was, which meant I was outgrowing my small banded bras as fast as my leggings. Time for a new bra-- again!
Something else I've discovered with broadening in circumference is that bras are fitting me differently now too, it's not just about the band length.

Some state that an excellent bra can last between 6 months to a year, depending upon how typically it is used and washed. To make bras last for a very long time, they should be rotated and cleaned with lingerie wash-- by hand or in a lingerie bag-- then hung to dry.
But the question still stays: How does one know exactly when to obtain rid of an old bra? Well, it's basic: Listen to the hints the bra is offering!
5 Telltale Sings You Required a New Bra:
1. Cups: Your breasts should fill the cups of your bra with no excess spilling over or any gaping. If you have spillage, your cups are too small. You might need to tighten your bra straps if there is space in between your breasts and the cups. The cups are too huge if there is still space.
Band: The band covers completely around the body. When buying a new bra, the band needs to feel tight on the loosest hook setting. If there is a lot of space or if you are able to easily pull your bra away from your body from the front, then the band is too big.
3. Gore: The gore, or center front piece of the bra between the cups, need to lay flat versus your body. If the gore is coming off of your body, then the cups of your bra are too little. Some ladies have breasts that are really close together and the gore may never ever totally lay flat. If that holds true, low-plunging bras with a brief, small gore will be the best fit.
Wings: The wings are the 2 parts of the bra that wrap around your body and secure in the back. There need to be at least 1/4 inch of area between one's armpit and the top of the wing.
Straps: Straps are not the biggest area of support on a bra; 90% of assistance comes from the band. If your straps are digging into your shoulders, you need a smaller band size and a larger cup.
Required help understanding if your bra still fits correctly? You're not alone. A lady's bra size can change every 6 months, and 80-85% of ladies are wearing the inaccurate bra size.

Scripture and Tradition
The Protestant reformation arose in the sixteenth century in reaction to the extra biblical teaching of the Church of Rome.
During the Middle Ages most people that were part of the Roman Church believed that the tradition taught by the Church and what the Scriptures taught were the same.
As Martin Luther and others started to study the Bible they soon discovered that many of the teachings (traditions) of the Church were not only different but that they even contradicted the Scriptures
Here is a list of some of the things that they discovered from the fruit of their study of the Scriptures. Keep in mind this list is to show that the only authority in the life of the believer and in the life of the Church is the inerrant authoritative Word of God. We see how easy it is for all kinds of different and strange teaching to come into the Church when the Church moves away from Sola Scriptura.
1. The Bible teaches that all have sinned except Jesus (Rom. 3:10-12; Heb.4:15), but tradition teaches that Mary was sinless.
2.The Bible teaches that Christ offered His sacrifice once for all (Heb.7:27; 9:28;10:10), but tradition says that the priest sacrifices Christ on the altar at Mass.
3. The Bible says that we are not to bow down to statues (Ex.20:4-5), but tradition says that we should bow to certain statues.
4.The Bible says that all Christians are saints and priests (Eph.1:1;1 Peter 2:9), but tradition says that saints and priests are special castes within the Christian community.
5. The Bible says that Jesus is the only Mediator between God and man (1Tim. 2:5), but tradition says that Mary is co-mediator with Christ.
6. The Bible says that marriage is a gift from God (Gen.2:22-24; Prov.5:18-19; 18:22), but tradition puts restrictions on those who would desire to serve God in the Church as priest or nun.
Mark 7:13 sums it up, here are the word of Jesus:
And so you cancel the word of God in order to hand down your own tradition. And this is only one example among many others."

REVIEW – Electric Citizen are back with their 60's knee deep sound drenched in psychedelia and old-fashioned catchy hard rock. If you thought their debut album was a great start, the follow-up shows that the first album was no fluke. Laura Dolan has this odd mixture of Nico meets Siouxsie Sioux. The band clearly know how to not only compliment her talent but to make the listener fall for the catchiness of the groove. Let's be honest, in this day and age in music more bands seem to want to go back towards the 60's and 70's than embrace the current trends, which is for good reason. Music in those times was more than a pretty model face who spewed out that she was ugly or a band that writes silly lyrics for kids at hot topic to chant. Electric Citizen are a band that just flat-out wants to perform, wants to show people what they can offer and try to not change the landscape, but make it a little more fun. The band open with this little stoner rock catchy tune called Evil. As you start to listen to it, you just find yourself captured in its simplicity and commercialized sound. This is truly geared to give people something to grasp onto long after you stop listening. The Bad Company like guitar sound and the captivating vocals make this song a gem. This is what bands like Christian Mistress and Huntress have been trying to convey to their fans in their last releases and failed.
Something that gives people a slice of what you are about that they can relate to and get behind. Laura gives us a vocal delivery that just creates a sensuality and yet a power to go with it. Higher Time is a 40 minute time warp into a band that clearly has so much good going for it. They have a great singer, fine riffs and songs that are both catchy and create these showcases for the band to win you over. This is a band who put more effort into writing songs than most bands put into playing live. I am pretty sure if I send this review to Grace Slick she would assume this is one of the Jefferson Airplane's lost records. With such a huge number of female women who seem to want to relive the hippie music era, it is such a blast to find a woman who really seem very passionate about the substance more than the style. Songs like Misery Keeper and Golden Mean would not feel lost on classic rock radio or modern metal radio. The debut album was so no fluke, and this record is proof that this band is going to be something very big, very soon. I would say right now if you are in the mood for a little smoke or partaking in the booze, this would be a good record to have for your mindset. What an addictive drug this record is, and the ironic part, this band is only two records in. I am dying to see what they can pull out of the next album.

Summertime…and the livin' is easy. Unless, of course, you're involved in an accident.
Unfortunately, the many fun activities that are associated with summer living can also be dangerous. Let's take a look at the top five summertime accidents that can occur if you're not careful.
Barbecues and backyard cookouts are a great way to relax with your friends, but the combination of open fire and alcohol can lead to burns. Burns and other injuries from fireworks and fire pits are also common summertime accidents.
Between road trips and cruisin' around to visit friends and family, car accidents spike during the summertime – especially when drivers are intoxicated or distracted behind the wheel. Never get behind the wheel after you've been drinking. If you're headed to a Fourth of July party or just enjoying some beachside cocktails with your friends, make sure to arrange for a designated driver.
It feels wonderful to go for a refreshing swim in the pool, lake, or ocean, but drownings can happen very quickly and turn your beach day into a tragedy. Again, boating or swimming while intoxicated is a very dangerous idea. Exercise extreme caution when you're on or near the water, particularly if your swimming skills are limited.
Sadly, some drivers still don't know how to share the road. Whether you're riding a bicycle for fun, for exercise, or as a way to commute, bicycle summertime accidents are a common source of injuries.
The thrills and chills of riding a rollercoaster or other attraction at an amusement park is big business, and a big draw for summer crowds. However, some 4,000 people are injured every year while on an amusement park ride. Most of these are minor — scrapes, cuts, or whiplash — but some such summertime accidents can cause serious injury. In the most tragic cases, people can even be killed when ejected from a roller coaster.
If any of these accidents befall you, you may want to consult with a personal injury attorney to see if you have a case.
Surgeries and medical procedures, including even the most minor ones, are inherently risky and put you at risk for further injury and even death. While anything can happen in a surgery or medical treatment, it is extremely disheartening when you are injured by medical personnel. If you suspect that medical personnel caused a further injury while you or a loved one was in the emergency room there are several different steps that you should undertake immediately.
The first step after you are injured by medical personnel should be getting medical treatment for the medical problem that you are now experiencing. While this may seem obvious, it is a good idea to choose a doctor that is unaffiliated with the hospital or emergency room that you first were injured in. For starters, there may be a quality problem at this medical facility that you are better off avoiding. Secondly, you may need the new doctors that examine you to report on your condition in a court of law and it is to avoid potential conflicts of interest, if at all possible.
It is a good idea to document your side of the story as it unfolds including your concerns and the chain of events that led to you being injured by medical personnel. Formally documenting these situations will help you to remember the details later when you may need to recall them in court.
If you are injured due to the incompetence of medical personnel then you should obtain compensation for your injuries. Retaining a medical malpractice attorney can significantly increase the chances that you have for being compensated for your pain and suffering. Look for a law firm that is experienced in providing services for the specific injury that you received on the behalf of the medical facility or hospital that you visited, and make sure that they have the appropriate personnel on staff and time to handle your case.
Medical injuries are always disconcerting not only for the current pain that you are experiencing, but a for your suddenly unknown way in which it can impact your future life. Following the aforementioned steps can improve the chances you have for recovering some degree of comfort in your life after such a harrowing experience.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lists the most common causes of death every year in the United States. Its information is taken from death certificates that are completed by doctors, funeral directors, medical directors and coroners, but that information fails to take medical malpractice into account as a cause of death.
Patient safety experts at Johns Hopkins University recently completed an analysis of medical death rate data over an eight year period. They concluded that more than 250,000 deaths per year in the United States were attributable to medical errors. Assuming that the Johns Hopkins conclusion is valid, that would rank medical negligence as the third leading cause of death in the United States behind heart disease and cancer.
Some doctors have dismissed the conclusion of the Johns Hopkins team as spinning numbers to drive an agenda, but even if the number was 125,000, it would still be frighteningly serious. When medical negligence causes a death, the patient or the patient's family can file a wrongful death case and seek damages from one or more health care providers. Those might be doctors, hospitals, clinics, nurses or others who participated in the victim's care and treatment. Some of the more common causes of death resulting from medical errors include:
Along with a wrongful death action, California law also provides for what's known as a survival action if the decedent didn't immediately die from his or her injuries. Different damages can be awarded in each type of action.

Millions of Americans take heartburn medications. They are often referred to as PPIs and are amongst the most prescribed medication in the US. They are also readily available for over the counter purchase by consumers.
Preliminary research presented at a recent American Heart Association conference revealed that popular heartburn medications may increase the risk of stroke in patients that use them regularly. The study's head researcher said, "PPIs have been associated with unhealthy vascular function, including heart attacks, kidney disease, and dementia. We wanted to see if PPIs also posed a risk for ischemic stroke, especially given their increasing use in the general population." Entire blog →

Mom's chicken tortilla soup
I love a good soup recipe especially if it's easy and this chicken tortilla soup is no exception. My mom sent me this soup recipe a couple weeks ago and we made it right away. It was a huge hit with the family and the LDS missionaries we were hosting.
Of course, missionaries will eat just about anything so that may not be the best endorsement!
Though the recipe asks you to crumble the chips in the bottom of the bowl and top them with the soup, feel free to sprinkle them on top—whatever floats your boat!
Printable recipe for Mom's chicken tortilla soup below.
- 1 (49.5-oz) can chicken broth
- 2 (16-oz) jars Archer Farms Traditional Picante-Style Salsa from Target
- ¾ cup uncooked brown rice
- 1 can whole kernel corn
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 (2.25-oz.) can sliced black olives
- 1 (12-oz.) package grilled chicken strips or boiled breasts cut into bite-size pieces
- ¼ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- 1 to 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 avocado, cubed (optional)
- Tortilla chips
- Boil broth in large pot. Add salsa, rice and onion to broth. Cook 20 to 30 minutes until rice is tender.
- Add chicken, olives, corn and cilantro. Cook until heated through, about 10-15 minutes.
- To serve, break tortilla chips into bowl and ladle soup over chips. Top with cheese and cubed avocado.

Hella Earns Top Honors For LED Headlamp Concept
PLYMOUTH, Mich., July 25 -- A prototype headlamp system developed by Hella in cooperation with Volkswagen has received top honors for innovation in a bi-annual competition held by Spain's Society of Automotive Engineers (Sociedad de Tecnicos de Automocion).
Hella's LED headlamp came in first among 87 entries in voting by an international panel of judges. The award was presented to Hella at the recently completed Barcelona Motor Show.
The award-winning design was developed in cooperation with Volkswagen for the Golf 5. It incorporates low beam, high beam, indicator and daytime running lights through the use of future-oriented LED technology.
"LEDs as light sources make it possible to create completely new headlamp shapes and arrangements," notes Dr. Raymund Heinen, president of Hella Lighting North America. "The increased durability of LEDs also may lead to automotive headlamp systems that will function without the need for replacement."
Hella is using both standard LEDs and LED assemblies specially developed for use in a variety of automotive lighting applications. Its prototype LED headlamp achieves around 1,000 Lumen luminous flux in low beam, creating light similar in intensity to xenon headlamps. The company expects to begin production of the new headlamp in 2008.
Headlamps using LEDs for main lighting functions already meet applicable U.S. SAE standards. Approval is expected for LED headlamps within the European Community by 2008. LED signal functions located within the headlamp are already in use both in Europe and North America.
In 2003, Hella was the first company worldwide to achieve a series application of white LEDs as a combined position/daytime running light in the Audi A8 W12 headlamp.
Lighting, electronics, complete vehicle modules, air conditioning systems, vehicle wiring systems and signal processing for the automobile industry, as well as automotive aftermarket components, are the core fields of competency for automotive supplier Hella KGaA Hueck & Co. Sales for the Hella Group are approximately $3.9 billion, placing Hella among Germany's top 100 industrial companies.
With its corporate headquarters in Lippstadt, Germany, the company employs nearly 24,000 people at 65 manufacturing facilities, production subsidiaries and joint-venture companies in 18 countries. More than 2,000 engineers and technicians work in research and development. All of the world's leading automobile and systems manufacturers are Hella customers as well as the automotive components aftermarket.

ATR-16 Syndrome
ATR-16 Syndrome
National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc.
It is possible that the main title of the report ATR-16 Syndrome is not the name you expected.
General Discussion
ATR-16 syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder in which affected individuals have a large loss of genetic material (monosomy) on chromosome 16 in which several adjacent genes are lost. Symptoms include intellectual disability, clubfoot, head circumference that is smaller than would be expected based upon an infant's age and gender (microcephaly), and alpha thalassemia, a blood disorder characterized in this disorder by reduced levels of functional hemoglobin. Hemoglobin, a protein that is found in red blood cells, is responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body via the blood. Some affected infants have distinctive facial features including eyes that are spaced apart farther than usual (hypertelorism), a broad, prominent bridge of the nose, small ears, and a short neck. ATR-16 syndrome is a contiguous gene syndrome, in which the loss of genetic material on chromosome 16 causes the loss of function of several adjacent genes. ATR-16 syndrome occurs as a spontaneous (de novo) event with no previous family history or in parents with a balanced chromosomal translocation that is inherited in an unbalanced manner.
The uncommon combination of alpha thalassemia and intellectual disability was first reported in the medical literature in 1981 by Dr. Weatherall, et al. Since that original description, two distinct syndromes have been defined through additional case reports in the medical literature. One is alpha thalassemia X-linked intellectual disability or ATR-X syndrome. NORD has a separate report on this disorder in the Rare Disease Database. The other is ATR-16 syndrome, the subject of this report.
Researchers have experienced difficulty establishing a clear syndrome with characteristic or "core" symptoms and much about the disorder is not fully understood. In many cases, there are other chromosomal abnormalities (in addition to the deletion on chromosome 16) and it is difficult to determine what symptoms are associated with what chromosomal abnormality. In addition, the small overall number of identified cases, the lack of large clinical studies, and the possibility of other genes influencing the disorder prevent physicians from developing a complete picture of associated symptoms and prognosis. Not surprisingly, the specific symptoms and severity of ATR-16 syndrome can vary greatly from one individual to another.
Infants with ATR-16 syndrome have alpha thalassemia a form of anemia associated with abnormally small (microcytic) red blood which do not contain enough functional hemoglobin. Although anemia from various causes can be associated with symptoms for example fatigue, weakness and shortness of breath, in ATR-16 syndrome the anemia is usually mild, asymptomatic and commonly, an incidental finding.
Alpha thalassemia is caused by mutations in two different genes, the HBA1 and the HBA2 genes, which are located on the chromosome 16. All individuals have two copies of each of these genes (for a total of four). Infants with ATR-16 syndrome will have a condition called alpha thalassemia minor or trait because the loss of genetic material on chromosome 16 includes one copy of each of these genes. If they receive a mutation in one of these genes on the other chromosome 16, they will develop a form of alpha thalassemia known as hemoglobin H (HbH) disease. Such individuals usually have mild HbH disease. (NORD has a separate report on alpha thalassemia. For more information, choose "alpha thalassemia" as your search term in the Rare Disease Database.)
Intellectual disability, which often ranges from mild to moderate, also occurs in children with ATR-16 syndrome. Developmental and speech delays become apparent as an affected child ages. Less commonly, seizures have been reported. Head circumference may be smaller than would be expected based upon an infant's age and gender (microcephaly). Growth delays can result in short stature, in which children are shorter than would be expected based upon age and gender.
Infants with ATR-16 syndrome may also have distinctive facial features including eyes that are spaced apart farther than usual (hypertelorism), downward-slanting palpebral fissures (which means the openings between the eyelids slant downward), a broad, prominent bridge of the nose, small ears, receding chin (retrognathia), and a short neck.
Skeletal malformations may occur in some cases including clubfoot (talipes equinovarus) and pinkies that are fixed or "locked" in a bent position. In males certain genital abnormalities may be present such as failure of the testes to descend (cryptorchidism) and the abnormal placement of the urinary opening on the underside of the penis (hypospadias).
ATR-16 syndrome is caused by the loss or deletion of genetic material affecting multiple genes that are next to (adjacent) to one another on chromosome 16, specifically from band 13.3 on the short arm (p) to the end (terminus) of the chromosome. Chromosomes, which are present in the nucleus of human cells, carry the genetic information for each individual. Human body cells normally have 46 chromosomes. Pairs of human chromosomes are numbered from 1 through 22 and the sex chromosomes are designated X and Y. Males have one X and one Y chromosome and females have two X chromosomes. Each chromosome has a short arm designated "p" and a long arm designated "q". Chromosomes are further sub-divided into many bands that are numbered. For example, "chromosome 16p13.3-pter" refers to the region on the short arm of chromosome 16 encompassing band 13.3 to the end or terminus.
The loss of genetic material on chromosome 16 includes the loss of multiple genes. Genes provides instructions for creating proteins that play a critical role in many functions of the body. When a mutation of a gene occurs, the protein product may be faulty, inefficient, or absent. Depending upon the specific functions of the particular protein, this can affect many organ systems of the body, including the brain.
Alpha thalassemia is caused by the loss of the HBA1 and HBA2 genes. The other genes in this chromosome region and their specific functions have not yet been identified, although the loss of one of these as-yet-unidentified genes most likely causes the intellectual disability associated with the disorder. A pure loss of genetic material (isolated monosomy) on chromosome 16p unassociated with another chromosomal abnormality is extremely rare. Many individuals have an additional chromosomal abnormality or abnormalities, which results in the wide variety of reported symptoms and prevents ATR-16 syndrome from being clearly defined.
In many cases, the deleted section of chromosome 16 appears to result from spontaneous (de novo) errors very early in embryonic development that occur for unknown reasons (sporadically). In such de novo cases, the parents of the affected child usually have normal chromosomes and a relatively low risk of having another child with the chromosomal abnormality.
In other cases, ATR-16 syndrome may be due to a balanced chromosomal rearrangement in one of the parents. In most cases, the parental rearrangement is described as a "balanced translocation." Translocations occur when portions of a chromosome break off and are rearranged, resulting in shifting of genetic material and an altered set of chromosomes. However, no genetic material is gained or lost, only rearranged. If a chromosomal rearrangement is balanced, meaning that it consists of an altered but balanced set of chromosomes, it is usually harmless to the carrier. However, such a chromosomal rearrangement may be associated with an increased risk of abnormal chromosomal development in the carrier's offspring. Such children may inherit an unaltered set of chromosomes, the same balanced translocation as the parent, or an unbalanced translocation, in which a chromosome has extra (trisomic) or missing (monosomic) genetic material.
Affected Populations
ATR-16 syndrome affects males and females in equal numbers. The exact incidence and prevalence of the disorder is unknown. Cases may go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, making it difficult to determine the true frequency in the general population. More than 20 cases have been reported in the medical literature.
Related Disorders
Symptoms of the following disorders can be similar to those of ATR-16 syndrome. Comparisons may be useful for a differential diagnosis.
Alpha thalassemia X-linked intellectual disability (ATR-X) syndrome is a rare genetic disorder affecting multiple organ systems of the body. ATR-X syndrome is characterized by intellectual disability, developmental delays, diminished muscle tone (hypotonia), distinctive facial features, abnormalities of the genitourinary tract, and alpha thalassemia. Alpha thalassemia is not seen in every case. Distinctive facial features include an abnormally large space between the eyes (hypertelorism), vertical skin folds (epicanthal folds) that may cover the inner corners of the eyes, underdevelopment of the middle portion of the face (midface hypoplasia), an abnormally flat nasal bridge, and a small, triangular nose. Most infants also have microcephaly. Additional abnormalities are usually present in most cases. ATR-X syndrome is inherited as an X-linked recessive genetic condition and occurs due to mutations of the ATRX gene on the X chromosome. (For more information on this disorder, choose "ATR-X syndrome" as your search term in the Rare Disease Database.)
Alpha thalassemia is the one of the most common autosomal recessive disorders in the world. Individuals with alpha thalassemia can, coincidentally, develop intellectual disability because of a different underlying reason, unrelated to chromosome 16.
A diagnosis of ATR-16 syndrome is based upon identification of characteristic symptoms, a detailed patient history, a thorough clinical evaluation and a variety of specialized tests.
Standard Therapies
Clinical Testing and Workup
Routine cytogenetic studies can be performed to diagnose ATR-16 syndrome when it is associated with a gross chromosomal abnormality such as a translocation but in the case of deletions and subtelomeric translocations such high resolution cytogenetic analysis appears entirely normal. A specific chromosomal study known as G-band analysis, which demonstrates rearranged chromosomal material, can be used to help obtain a diagnosis. Chromosomes may be obtained from a blood sample. During this test the chromosomes are stained so that they can be more easily seen and then are examined under a microscope where the rearranged chromosomes can be detected (karyotyping). To determine the precise breakpoint or to look for a suspected deletion not detected by G-band analysis, a more sensitive test known as fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) may be necessary. During a FISH exam, probes marked by a specific color of fluorescent dye are attached to a specific chromosome allowing researchers to better view that specific region of the chromosome.
As a first line investigation these technologies are being superseded by a newer technique known as chromosomal microarray analysis. During this exam, a person's DNA is compared to the DNA of a person without a chromosomal abnormality ('control' person). A chromosome abnormality is noted when a difference is found between the DNA samples. Chromosomal microarray analysis allows for the detection of very small changes or alterations.
The treatment of ATR-16 syndrome is directed toward the specific symptoms that are apparent in each individual. Treatment may require the coordinated efforts of a team of specialists. Pediatricians, neurologists, hematologists, and other healthcare professionals may need to systematically and comprehensively plan an affect child's treatment. Psychosocial support for the entire family is essential as well. Genetic counseling may be of benefit for affected individuals and their families.
Early intervention services during infancy and toddlerhood (before the age of three) are important in ensuring that affected children reach their potential. Special services that may be beneficial during childhood include special remedial education, speech therapy and/or other medical, and social services. An Individualized Family Support Plan (IFSP) may be developed to guide the early intervention process for infants and toddlers with disabilities. An individual education plan (IEP) may be developed to assist children in school if special services are required, or a 504 plan which can ensure that the child receives access to an equal education through accommodations in their learning environment. Such planning is individualized, especially because the degree of intellectual disability is highly variable.
Alpha thalassemia and HbH disease do not require treatment in most cases. It is conceivable with a more severe expression of the disorder, affected individuals may require occasional blood transfusions and/or medications that remove excess iron from the blood (chelators). Additional therapies for ATR-16 syndrome depend upon the specific abnormalities present and generally follow standard guidelines.
