Mental retardation X-linked borderline Maoa metabolism anomaly
Mental retardation x linked borderline maoa metabolism anomaly (medical condition): A very rare syndrome characterized mainly by mental retardation and lower than normal levels of monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) activity. Low levels of MAOA have been implicated with increased behavioral problems such as violence and impulsiveness.
Mental retardation X-linked Brunner type
Mental retardation, X-linked, Brunner type: A very rare disorder where a deficiency of monoamine oxidase A causesmild mental retardation and behavioral problems.
Mental retardation X-linked dysmorphism

Mental retardation, X-linked - dystonia - dysarthria: A very rare X-linked disorder characterized by the association of mental retardation with dystonia (movement disorder) and dysarthria (speech disorder).
Mental retardation X-linked short stature obesity
Mental retardation X-linked syndromic 7
Mental retardation X-linked syndromic 7: A very rare syndrome characterized mainly by mental retardation, obesity, hypogonadism and tapered fingers.
Mental retardation X-linked- South African type
Mental retardation X-linked, South African type: A very rare syndrome characterized mainly by mental retardation, mutism, facial anomalies, epilepsy and weak eye muscles. Males tended to have severe mental retardation whereas female carriers had mild or no mental retardation.
Mental retardation- epileptic seizures- hypogonadism and hypogenitalism- microcephaly- and obesity
Mental retardation - epileptic seizures - hypogonadism - hypogenitalism -microcephaly - obesity: A very rare syndrome characterized mainly by mental deficiency, epilepsy, small head, small genitals and obesity. Death occurs within the first two years of life.
Mental retardation- keratoconus- febrile seizures- and sinoatrial block
Mental retardation, keratoconus, febrile seizures, and sinoatrial block: A rare disorder characterized by mental retardation, seizures with fever, an eye disorder and a heart anomaly. The heart condition requires a pacemaker in some cases
Mental retardation- macrocephaly- short stature and craniofacial dysmorphism
Mental retardation, macrocephaly, short stature and craniofacial dysmorphism: A very rare syndrome characterized by mental retardation, short stature, a large head and facial abnormalities
Mental retardation- X-linked 14
Mental retardation, X-linked syndromic 14: A syndromic form of mental retardation which also involves variable features including poorly muscled build and facial anomalies. The disorder is inherited in a X-linked manner which means that only males display the full range of symptoms whereas female carriers may have mild or no symptoms. The genetic defect is located on chromosome Xq25-q26
Mental retardation- X-linked- nonspecific
Non-specific X-linked mental retardation (MRX) is a very common disorder which affects approximately 1 in 600 males. Despite this high frequency, little is known about the molecular defects underlying this disorder, mainly because of the clinical and genetic heterogeneity which is evident from linkage studies. Recently, a collaborative study using the candidate gene approach demonstrated the presence of mutations in GDIalpha, a Rab GDP-dissociation inhibitor encoded by a gene localized in Xq28, associated with non-specific mental retardation.
Mental retardation- X-linked- with cerebellar hypoplasia and distinctive facial appearance
Mental retardation, X-linked, with cerebellar hypoplasia and distinctive facial appearance: A very rare syndrome characterized by moderate to severe mental retardation, unusual facial appearance and an underdeveloped brain.
Mental retardation-hypotonic facies syndrome- x-linked- 1
Mental retardation - hypotonic facies syndrome, X-linked, 1: A group of rare syndromes characterized by severe mental retardation, unusual facial appearance and other variable abnormalities.
Mental retardation-polydactyly-uncombable hair
Mental retardation-polydactyly-uncombable hair: A very rare syndrome characterized mainly by mental retardation, extra fingers and uncombable hair
Meralgia paresthetica
Meralgia paresthetica is a condition characterized by tingling, numbness and burning pain in the outer part of your thigh. The cause of meralgia paresthetica is compression of the nerve that supplies sensation to the skin surface of your thigh.
Meralgia paresthetica
Meralgia paresthetica is a condition characterized by tingling, numbness and burning pain in the outer part of your thigh. The cause of meralgia paresthetica is compression of a nerve — the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve — that supplies sensation to the skin surface of your upper leg. Common causes of this nerve compression include tight clothing, obesity or weight gain, and pregnancy. Meralgia paresthetica can also be due to nerve injury, from a disease such as diabetes or from trauma. Treatment for meralgia paresthetica is directed at relieving the compression and usually consists of self-care measures, such as wearing looser clothing or losing weight. In severe cases of meralgia paresthetica, treatment may include medications to treat the discomfort or, rarely, surgery.
Meretoja syndrome
Meretoja syndrome: A form of familial amyloid polyneuropathy characterized by deposits of a substance called amyloid in the skin on the face as well as the facial nerves which can cause symptoms such as weak facial muscles
