  1. 6. Cryptic chromosome abnormalities in idiopathic mental retardation

    Författare :Britt-Marie Anderlid; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Mental retardation is a common disorder, affecting 1-3% of the population. In spite of improved diagnostic tools, the etiology can still not be established in half of the cases. Several lines of evidence indicate a genetic origin in a significant number of individuals with idiopathic mental retardation. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Gene dose imbalances in children with mental retardation

    Författare :Jacqueline Schoumans; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Mental retardation; MCA MR syndromes; cromosome abnormalities; subtelomeric FISH; comparative genomichybridization; array-CGH;

    Sammanfattning : Submicroscopic chromosome aberrations can cause mental retardation (MR), congenital malformations and miscarriage. It is difficult to estimate the contribution of cytogenetic abnormalities to MR because of relatively low detection sensitivity of conventional cytogenetic methods used in the diagnostic setting.

  7. 10. Molecular Characterisation of Structural Chromosomal Abnormalities Associated with Congenital Disorders

    Författare :Mahmoud R. Mansouri; Niklas Dahl; Hans Van Bokhoven; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Genetics; Chromosomal abnormalities; Mental retardation; Hypospadias and anal malformation; Premature ovarian failure; Autism; Array-CGH; ZDHHC15; Genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Chromosomal abnormalities are defined as changes in the chromosome structure and fall in one of two categories. The first category is numerical alterations while the second category consists of structural abnormalities. Structural chromosomal abnormalities do not always interrupt genes in order to cause disease. LÄS MER
