Delayed diagnosis were cases not detected by newborn screening
An unknown case had an initial specimen submitted for newborn screening that was deemed unsatisfactory by the laboratory; the case was detected on a subsequent screening specimen, but because of the initial unsatisfactory specimen, it is unknown whether the case would have been detected on the first screen.
Percent indicates the proportion of the total (i.e., percent of 99 cases for the one-screen states and percent of 275 cases for the two-screen states)
