Abstract excerpt
Intellectual disability (ID) is a heterogeneous condition affecting 2-3% of the population, often associated with multiple congenital anomalies (MCA). The genetic cause remains largely unexplained for most cases. To investigate the causes of ID/MCA of unknown etiology in the Japanese population, 645 subjects have been recruited for the screening of pathogenic copy-number variants (CNVs). Two screenings using...
