Genetic Carrier Burden in Neonatal Screening Genes: Evidence of Elevated Pathogenic Variant Frequency in the Lebanese population

2026-01-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Newborn screening programs (NSPs) are public health initiatives that aim to detect specific genetic conditions in asymptomatic newborns early enough to allow timely interventions, and decrease disease-associated morbidity. Despite the existing criteria for selecting disorders to be included in NSP, establishing a standardized global program remains challenging due to genetic diversity...
