2019-11-18
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Current newborn screening (NBS) in China is mainly aimed at detecting biochemical levels of metabolites in the blood, which may generate false positive/negative results. To explore whether next-generation sequencing (NGS) for dried blood spots can increase the detecting rate of genetic disorders, we carried out a pilot study using NGS in 1,173 newborns who had been tested by...
