| Core Tip |
Here we characterize the diagnostic and clinical utility of genomic investigations for a wide range of pediatric gastrointestinal disorders in a pediatric cohort from the Middle East. We show that the cumulative diagnostic yield was 55%, including 6% having multiple molecular diagnoses, mostly attributed to autosomal recessive disorders (66%). Yield was highest for patients with congenital diarrhea (73.3%) and cholestasis (62.5%). Genomic findings guided management plans in 97% of diagnosed patients. We propose a novel gene-disease association most likely due to biallelic loss-of-function variants in the NR1I3 gene. |
