Design outcomes

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Prevalence of structural-, dysmorphological and neurodevelopmental abnormalities in gastroschisis patients, compared to the prevalence of these variables in healthy controls, derived from literature. 2. To investigate whether specific recurrent CNVs are overrepresented among patients with gastroschisis and point towards specific molecular pathways. 3. To gain more insight in the potential pathogenic contribution of the identified CNVs identified by analysing the genes in the copy number abnormalities in patients with gastroschisis. Size, location and gene-content of deletions and/or duplications in gastroschisis patients and their parents will be compared to patients with other anomalies and healthy controls derived from the database of the medical genetics and publicly available databases. The clinical characteristics will be compared between patients with and patients without CNVs to detect whether there are significant differences. | — |
