Abstract excerpt
Intellectual disability (ID) affects approximately 1%-3% of the population and spans diverse clinical presentations with marked genetic heterogeneity, especially in consanguineous populations where autosomal-recessive ID is common. Despite advances in diagnostic methods, ~50% of individuals with ID remain without a molecular diagnosis. Genome sequencing (GS) can detect variant classes poorly captured by other...
