A genetic test known as chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) could help identify the cause of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) or its counterpart in older children, known as sudden unexplained ...

The genetic counseling for prenatal microarray testing should include a pretest counseling session before the invasive procedure and a post-test counseling session when the results are received.

Still the analysis shows that unclear genetic findings occur in about 1% of karyotypes, so such uncertainty is not unique to microarray analysis or genome sequencing. But it’s still unsettling.

Advancements in technologies have revolutionized the genetic landscape. Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) becomes a proven method and is implemented to detect gains and losses of DNA and absence ...

Advancements in chromosomal microarrays (CMAs) have greatly expanded the capabilities of cytogenetics testing in recent years, including the ability to yield insights into genetic risk factors and ...

Microarray is a method of genetic testing that can accurately identify several chromosomal disorders, including almost all known deletion and duplication syndromes, and it recognizes abnormalities ...

The results of the microarray analyses show that the single male X chromosome is expressed at the same level as the two female X chromosomes put together in both somatic cells and germ cells. By ...

A single genetic test could potentially replace the current two-step approach to diagnosing rare developmental disorders in children. This shift could enable earlier diagnoses for families and ...

Microarrays have been a mainstay of the scientific research community for nearly a decade but given the more stringent demands for accuracy and reliability, have not been as closely embraced in ...

What Causes Triple X Syndrome? Triple X syndrome is congenital, which means that people with the condition are born with it. It affects only females and happens when an extra X chromosome is ...
