a

The TORCH organisms include Toxoplasma gondii, others (Treponema pallidum [causing syphilis], hepatitis B virus [HBV], and human parvovirus B19), rubella virus, cytomegalovirus (CMV), and herpes simplex virus (HSV). T. gondii is not part of the Human Microbiome Project (HMP), and thus, no orgName or orgID is provided. Rubella virus was not detected because, as an RNA virus, it does not fit in the NIPT library protocol. Clinical frequency (ClinicalFreq) is predefined elsewhere, mostly as the rate of positive serological screening tests among the individual study populations, while population frequency (PopFreq) is the frequency of nonzero samples of a particular organism directly derived from the indicator matrix of the study population. NA, not available.
