Why is GAA-FGF14 ataxia indexed under mosaicism?

by Daria Sol

Topic indexing alone is insufficient evidence that mosaicism was measured or implicated.

The GAA-FGF14 ataxia publication is associated with this corpus topic, although its title describes an overlooked cause of sporadic adult-onset ataxia without identifying a mosaic finding. Before using it in mosaicism synthesis, the source should establish whether repeat-length mosaicism was assayed, which tissues were sampled, and what detection threshold supported any low-level or tissue-discordant result. Otherwise, the association may reflect indexing context rather than evidence about mosaic distribution.
