Calculation of continuous reference intervals for biological parameters exhibiting strong age‐dependent level changes: Its application to glycosaminoglycans and sialic acid in urine

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 65, Issue 6, Page 442-449, November 2024.
Abstract Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and sialic acid (total and free) assays are used as first‐line screening tests for the diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidoses and glycoproteinoses, respectively. There is a pronounced age‐dependent variation in the urinary concentrations of these metabolites in the normal population, and the stratification of the reference ...

The potential impact of implementation of expanded carrier screening on pediatric patient diagnoses: A retrospective chart review of patients who receive care in an outpatient genetics clinic in the northeast

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Counseling, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1026-1034, October 2024.
Abstract The use of expanded carrier screening (ECS) to assess reproductive risk for autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked recessive (XLR) conditions has been increasingly integrated into obstetrical care. The aim of this study was to determine what proportion of pediatric patients seen by a medical genetics practice could have had their diagnosis ...
