The NextGen Study: patient motivation for participation in genome sequencing for carrier status
BACKGROUND While translational genomic sequencing research is increasing, few studies have been limited to healthy individuals; most have focused on patients with a disease or a strong family history of a disorder. The limited studies that have included healthy individuals have focused on the disclosure of medically actionable secondary results, rather than carrier status, to assess reproductiv...
متن کاملStakeholders in psychiatry and their attitudes toward receiving pertinent and incident findings in genomic research
Increasingly more psychiatric research studies use whole genome sequencing or whole exome sequencing. Consequently, researchers face difficult questions, such as which genomic findings to return to research participants and how. This study aims to gain more knowledge on the attitudes among potential research participants and health professionals toward receiving pertinent and incidental finding...
متن کاملPerceptions of Secondary School Students towards Natural Resources Management: Case Study of Participants in FoF and Non-Participants
Integrating natural resources management in the secondary school curriculum in Kenya has received a lot of talk without adequate practical activities. The Farmers of the Future Programme under the World Agroforestry Centre, formally the International Centre for Research in Agroforestry (ICRAF), initiated a practical approach to integration of natural resources management in the secondary school...
متن کاملHomozygosity Mapping and Targeted Sanger Sequencing Identifies Three Novel CRB1 (Cumbs homologue 1) Mutations in Iranian Retinal Degeneration Families
Background: Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a group of genetic disorders with high degrees of clinical, genetic and allelic heterogeneity. IRDs generally show progressive retinal cell death resulting in gradual vision loss. IRDs constitute a broad spectrum of disorders including retinitis pigmentosa and Leber congenital amaurosis. In this study, we performed genotyping studies to identify...
متن کاملThe Genetics of Non-Syndromic Primary Ovarian Insufficiency: A Systematic Review
Purpose: Several causes for primary ovarian insufficiency have been described, including iatrogenic and environmental factor, viral infections, chronic disease as well as genetic alterations. Given the large number of genes described in the literature so far, the aim of this review was to collect all the genetic mutations associated with non-syndromic primary ovarian insufficiency. Methods: All...
