Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: * Patient has MCA/ID and is already in the diagnostic clinical genetic circuit at the UMCU. * Patient lack a diagnosis from regular diagnostic testing (aCGH, WES) * Both parents are available for blood sampling * Parents have to give consent for the patient
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: * One or both Parents do not give consent * MCA/ID patient carries a recurrent/described SV with a causal variant (i.e. patient has a diagnosis: only undiagnosed MCA/ID patients will be included in this cohort). * One or more of the parents is not available for blood sampling * Patients are younger than 2 years of age * Blood sampling is not possible from the patient for medical reasons
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| This study will generate a genomics dataset from patient-parent trios at the DNA, RNA and epigenome level. These data will help to better diagnose this group of patients. Therefore, results from this study can help in the routine diagnostic care of this patient group. These results will then be shared with the clinical geneticists involved in this study through routine care mechanisms. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The results from this study could also generate new genes and/or mechanisms that are important in the etiology of MCA/ID as a syndrome. | — |
