| 1. | Mutations in this gene are associated with multiple epiphyseal dysplasia.
|
| 2. | Taller stature is largely a result of later puberty and slower epiphyseal fusion.
|
| 3. | Instead the occurrence of epiphyseal plate-like cartilage is peculiar of the former.
|
| 4. | They are almost never just epiphyseal 3.
|
| 5. | This is part of the reason why patients suffer from multiple epiphyseal dysplasia and osteopenia.
|
| 6. | The spinal length in boys may be short due to a rapid advance in epiphyseal maturation.
|
| 7. | Mutations can cause the osteochondrodysplasias pseudoachondroplasia ( PSACH ) and multiple epiphyseal dysplasia ( MED ).
|
| 8. | Estradiol mediates the growth spurt, bone maturation, and epiphyseal closure in boys just as in girls.
|
| 9. | Although some people with recessive multiple epiphyseal dysplasia have short stature as adults, most are of normal height.
|
| 10. | In skeletally immature individuals, the blood supply to the epiphyseal bone is good, supporting both osteogenesis and chondrogenesis.
