Cystic Fibrosis testing among Arab-Americans.

Genetics in medicine : official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics - 1 Apr 2006

Wei Sainan, Feldman Gerald L, Monaghan Kristin G

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Limited data regarding the cystic fibrosis carrier frequency and mutation detection rate is available for Arab-Americans. We retrospectively determined the frequency of carriers among Arab-Americans undergoing preconception and prenatal carrier screening in our laboratories. METHODS: Between October, 2001 and June, 2005, we performed carrier screening on 805 Arab-Americans, testing for at least the...
