Abstract / Description of output

The distribution of simple autosomal duplications associated with congenital malformations has been analyzed by means of data contained in the Human Cytogenetics Database. For each of the 47 malformations, the frequency of duplication of a given chromosome band associated with the malformation was compared with the overall frequency of duplication of that band recorded in the database. In total, there were 143 malformation-associated chromosomal regions (MACR); 21 of these contained at least one band with a highly significant (P
