Patients have increased LDL values from birth, and an increased cardiovascular risk, making early diagnosis and treatment imperative for improved prognosis. Three main causative genes have been associated with FH: LDLR, APOB and PCSK9. [clinicalgenome.org]

Etiology
The etiology remains unknown in up to 80% of cases with mild intellectual disability (4). Depending on the underlying etiology, the recurrence risk can vary between the background and 50%. [dnatesting.uchicago.edu]
Despite multiples genes involved in the etiology of disease, most of the genetic background is yet to be discovered. [sparrho.com]
It is estimated that mutations in the genes on the X chromosome may account for about 10% of all cases of ID, thus molecular investigations into the X chromosome in elucidating the etiology of an individual with ID have been routinely suggested. [ashg.org]
