04/15/1992 - "Clasped-thumb mental retardation (MASA) syndrome: confirmation of linkage to Xq28."
01/01/1974 - "The MASA syndrome: a new heritable mental retardation syndrome."
04/01/1994 - "The MASA syndrome is an X-linked disorder with mental retardation, spastic paraparesis, and adducted thumbs as the most characteristic features. "
01/01/1994 - "X-linked hydrocephalus and the X-linked MASA syndrome (Mental retardation. "
06/01/1996 - "These findings were consistent with the MASA spectrum (mental retardation-aphasia-shuffling gait-adducted thumbs) present in the older brother. "

06/01/1996 - "Transvaginal sonographic detection of adducted thumbs, hydrocephalus, and agenesis of the corpus callosum at 22 postmenstrual weeks: the masa spectrum or L1 spectrum. "
03/22/1996 - "These results provide, for the first time, direct demonstration of the deleterious effects of hydrocephalus/MASA mutations on two intrinsic properties of L1."
03/22/1996 - "Differential effects of two hydrocephalus/MASA syndrome-related mutations on the homophilic binding and neuritogenic activities of the cell adhesion molecule L1."
12/01/2000 - "The recent identification of a common etiology among MASA syndrome (McKusick 303300), X-linked hydrocephalus (HSAS) (McKusick 307000) and other related neurological disorders, which had previously been considered distinct nosological entities, allowed us to diagnose MASA syndrome in a male fetus in a primigravida at the 29th week of gestation by sonographic signs of the MASA spectrum such as hydrocephalus and hypoplasia of corpus callosum. "
07/01/1994 - "L1CAM, therefore, harbours mutations leading to either MASA syndrome or HSAS, and might be frequently implicated in X-linked mental retardation with or without hydrocephalus."

10/01/1991 - "Analysis of published cases with hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), where linkage studies have been carried out, emphasizes the clinical variability in MASA syndrome and other types of HSP, thus making a definite diagnosis in single cases often impossible."

12/01/2014 - "The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and infertility in Chinese males using multi-analyte suspension array (MASA). "

04/01/2012 - "Together, these studies likely will lead to additional research and advances in the development of the hybrid models of the mood and anxiety disorders through the dissemination and administration of the MASA."
