Cystic fibrosis newborn screening programs: implications of the CFTR variant spectrum in nonwhite patients.

Genetics in medicine : official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics - 1 Jan 2017

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Cystic fibrosis newborn screening (CFNBS) has been offered across the United States since 2010. However, as compared with white patients with CF, CFTR variant identification in nonwhite populations remains inequitable. Utilizing the recent characterization of the nonwhite CF variant spectrum, we examined the effectiveness of current CFNBS molecular panels in identifying affected nonwhite newborns....
