Age-related survey of clinical genetics literature and related resources
Genetic conditions affect people throughout their entire lifespan; however, many clinical geneticists focus on the care of pediatric individuals. We analyzed the medical literature and related resources to help assess to what extent adults with genetic diseases were represented. This included general literature searches of PubMed (from 2001 through 2022), specific databases (the FDA orphan drug list and the Clinical Genomic Database) related to management and direct treatment of genetic conditions, and textbooks and morphology guides relevant to the diagnosis of genetic conditions. In the field of genetics/genomics in general, we overall detected a statistically significant emphasis on pediatric populations in the medical literature compared to select other disciplines and compared with the global population distribution. Clinical genetics articles about adults tended to focus on younger adult ages. In clinical genetics, management and treatments, as well as illustrations in several educational/diagnostic resources tended to focus on pediatric populations.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Medical Genetics, Part C of the American Journal of Medical Genetics (AJMG) , serves as both an educational resource and review forum, providing critical, in-depth retrospectives for students, practitioners, and associated professionals working in fields of human and medical genetics. Each issue is guest edited by a researcher in a featured area of genetics, offering a collection of thematic reviews from specialists around the world. Seminars in Medical Genetics publishes four times per year.
