In the study presented here, the investigation of 135 families led to the identification of 31 novel genomic loci for ARMR. [pubman.mpdl.mpg.de]
Patients with NPS may present with hematuria and an incidence of approximately 10–20% has been described [1]. [egms.de]
Here, we present two consanguineous families from Pakistan and Iran, presenting with moderate to severe intellectual disability, global developmental delay, and speech impairment without neurodegeneration. [nature.com]
Workup
Diagnostic workup of patients with MR should include all or some of the following: careful dysmorphological and neurological examination, karyotyping, fragile X analysis, investigations aimed at detection of microdeletions/microduplications and resequencing [els.net]

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]
