Table 1. Patient characteristics and phenotypic stratification.

A) The demographics of the patient population screened for the seven genes in this study is shown. F, female; SD, standard deviation; y, year. B) The phenotypic categorization of the patient population screened is shown for each individual gene. Features guiding patient selection for a particular genetic test were selected to maximize discovery based on published clinical presentations (see text). Note that patients are listed only by a single phenotypic descriptor although individuals with overlapping features were included in multiple test categories.
