Population Frequency of Repeat Expansions Indicates Increased Disease Prevalence Estimates Across Different Populations

2023-07-03

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Repeat expansion disorders (REDs) are a devastating group of predominantly neurological diseases. Together they are common, affecting 1 in 3,000 people worldwide with population-specific differences. However, prevalence estimates of REDs are hampered by heterogeneous clinical presentation, variable geographic distributions, and technological limitations leading to under-ascertainment. H...
