Indeed, the clinical presentation of our patient was suggestive for B4GALT7 -deficiency, since she presented narrow mouth, wide forehead, and single transverse palmar crease that were described only in spEDS- B4GALT7. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
As you can see, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a multi-systemic condition that presents differently in those affected. [edswellness.org]

Easy Bruising
Easy bruising is common. Joint hypermobility is the primary clinical manifestation. [nature.com]
Soft skin with normal or only slightly increased extensibility and easy bruising. Recurrent dislocation or subluxation of multiple joints. Chronic joint, limb, and/or back pain. [centogene.com]
In contrast, we recently reported a syndrome of joint hyperlaxity, easy bruising, pelvic organs prolapses, premature rupture of the membranes and rectal bleeding associated with a non-glycine sequence variant of the COL3A1 gene (P435T) [ 54 ]. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
This type is characterized by excessive elasticity of skin, easy bruising, extreme mobility of joints and tumor-like growths on skin Hypermobility type : The cause of this type is unknown in most cases. [dovemed.com]

Short Stature
EDSSPD2 is an autosomal recessive form characterized by an aged appearance, developmental delay, short stature, craniofacial disproportion, generalized osteopenia, defective wound healing, hypermobile joints, hypotonic muscles, and loose but elastic skin [uniprot.org]

Single Transverse Palmar Crease
She had an interrupted single transverse palmar crease. Deep tendon reflexes were sluggish. [cags.org.ae]
Other frequent features comprised facial dysmorphism, hyperextensible skin, joint hypermobility (JHM), single transverse palmar crease, severe hypermetropia, limb bowing, and osteopenia, [ 2 ]. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

In addition, she showed some common gene-specific minor criteria, i.e., blue sclerae, sparse scalp hair, flat face, osteopenia, and joint hypermobility, but none of those that are unique of the other types (Table 2 ). [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

People with spondylodysplastic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome can benefit from a variety of treatments depending on their symptoms. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Due to different clinical symptoms, natural history and prognosis, EDS type IV should be assessed separately within the group of EDS. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Etiology
Etiology Arthrochalasic EDS is due to abnormal maturation of the alpha1 (I) (former type VIIA) or alpha2 (I) (former type VIIB) collagen I pro-chains, in which the aminoterminal propeptide is incorrectly cleaved. [orpha.net]
•Due to the limited number of reported cases, a different genetic etiology of the ocular findings cannot be excluded at this time. REFERENCES: Faiyaz-Ul-Haque, M., S.H.E. Zaidi, M. Al-Ali, M.S. Al-Mureikhi, S. Kennedy, G. Al-Thani, L. Tsui, and A.S. [epostersonline.com]
(Etiology) Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is an inherited disorder caused predominantly by heritable gene mutations. [dovemed.com]
Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology The incidence of the arthrochalasic form (formerly divided into types VIIA and VIIB) is very low. [orpha.net]
Epidemiology The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes are a group of hereditary disorders of connective tissue, whose prevalence is estimated between 1/10,000 and 1/25,000, with no ethnic predisposition. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Prevention
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a genetic condition, and therefore, there are no methods or guidelines available to prevent its occurrence. [dovemed.com]

(B) Dysfunction of B4GALT7 prevents addition of the first galactose (Gal) to the xylose of the linker tetrasaccharide of proteoglycan. Similar disruption to GAG structure results from abnormal expression of B3GALT6 (C) and D4ST1 (D). [epostersonline.com]
