Abstract excerpt
Maternally inherited 15q11-q13 duplications are generally found to cause more severe neurodevelopmental anomalies compared to paternally inherited duplications. However, this assessment is mainly inferred from the study of patient populations, causing an ascertainment bias towards patients at the more severe end of the phenotypic spectrum. Here, we analyze the low coverage genome-wide cell-free DNA sequencing...
