Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are a group of disorders with high genetic and phenotypic heterogeneities. The 16p11.2 microdeletion has been implicated as an important genetic risk factor for NDDs. METHODS: Multiple genetic tests were used to detect the 16p11.2 microdeletion from 918 Chinese children with NDDs. Targeted sequencing of genes in the 16p11.2 interval was performed in all carriers of...
