a+ indicates that a variant was present on the panel or the corresponding whole genome sequencing (WGS) sample. b– indicates that a variant was not present on the panel or the corresponding WGS sample. cSubsequent to the investigational device exemption (IDE) submission, additional review indicated that this number should in fact be a total of 21 panel positive, but WGS negative variants distributed across the various subcategories (some variants were missannotated in the original tables). However, to reflect what was actually submitted as part of the IDE, the original number is listed here. The impact on overall performance measures is small. PPA positive percent agreement, CI confidence interval, NPA negative percent agreement, P/LP pathogenic/likely pathogenic, SNVs single-nucleotide variants
