Zusammenfassung: | As knowledge about genetic causes of disease improves, periodic reanalysis of clinical exome sequence could yield new genetic information. This study showed that a reanalysis of data initially analyzed about 6 years ago almost doubled the diagnostic yield and that a semiautomated approach to sequence analysis had a diagnostic sensitivity of 92.9%. |
