Chromosomal Abnormalities in Patients with Intellectual Disability: A 21-Year Retrospective Study.
Background: Intellectual disability (ID) has been defined as a considerably reduced ability to understand new or complex information and to learn new skills. It is associated with life-long intellectual and adaptive functioning impairments that have a profound impact on individuals, families, and society. It affects about 3% of the general population. ID often comes out with other mental conditions like attention deficit, hyperactivity, and autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and it can be part of a malformation syndrome that affects other organs. It may be syndromic (S-ID) or non-syndromic (NS-ID).
Objective: The aims of this study were to identify the profile of intellectually disable patients being referred for cytogenetic analysis in Morocco, to determine the prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities in a Moroccan group, and to compare the results with those of analogous studies from other countries.
Participants: We included data from Moroccan patients with NS-ID and others with S-ID (mostly Down syndrome cases) who have been referred between 1996 and 2016. 1,626 patients were involved in this study, 1,200 were referred with a clinical diagnosis of Down syndrome, 37 were clinically diagnosed for ASD with ID, and 389 were suspected of NS-ID.
Results: We identified 1,200 cases of Down syndrome. In 1,096 analyses (91.3%), a cytogenetic variant of trisomy 21 was identified: standard trisomy 21 in 1,037 cases (94.6%), a translocation in 34 cases (3.10%), and mosaicism in 25 cases (2.3%). The cytogenetic analysis among ASD with ID cases did not reveal any specific chromosomal abnormalities. The present study also shows that chromosomal abnormalities were present in 6.43% of the patients with NS-ID (25 abnormal karyotypes out of 389 NS-ID cases). Autosomal structural abnormalities were the largest proportion of chromosomal aberrations.
Conclusion: The high rate of chromosomal abnormalities found in the Moroccan patients studied demonstrates the capital importance of cytogenetic evaluation in patients who show ID or any clinical development abnormality.
期刊介绍:
Gathering original research reports and short communications from all over the world, ''Human Heredity'' is devoted to methodological and applied research on the genetics of human populations, association and linkage analysis, genetic mechanisms of disease, and new methods for statistical genetics, for example, analysis of rare variants and results from next generation sequencing. The value of this information to many branches of medicine is shown by the number of citations the journal receives in fields ranging from immunology and hematology to epidemiology and public health planning, and the fact that at least 50% of all ''Human Heredity'' papers are still cited more than 8 years after publication (according to ISI Journal Citation Reports). Special issues on methodological topics (such as ‘Consanguinity and Genomics’ in 2014; ‘Analyzing Rare Variants in Complex Diseases’ in 2012) or reviews of advances in particular fields (‘Genetic Diversity in European Populations: Evolutionary Evidence and Medical Implications’ in 2014; ‘Genes and the Environment in Obesity’ in 2013) are published every year. Renowned experts in the field are invited to contribute to these special issues.
