Descriptive epidemiology of holoprosencephaly and arhinencephaly in metropolitan Atlanta, 1968-1992.
TL;DR: The descriptive epidemiology of holoprosencephaly and arhinencephaly is reported using data from the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program, a population-based birth defects surveillance system with multiple sources of ascertainment, for the first population- based study with long-term data on this rare defect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human Genome Sequencing at the Population Scale: A Primer on High-Throughput DNA Sequencing and Analysis.
TL;DR: Several massively parallel high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies are described and their associated strengths, limitations, and error modes are described, with a focus on applications in epidemiologic research and precision medicine.

TL;DR: This data pooled data from 11 birth defect registries that are part of the International Clearinghouse for Birth Defects Monitoring Systems identified 666 infants, born from 1983 through 1993, who had a non-syndromal limb defect plus at least one other major malformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Health-related direct-to-consumer genetic tests: a public health assessment and analysis of practices related to Internet-based tests for risk of thrombosis.
K.A.B. Goddard,Julie Robitaille,N.F. Dowling,A.R. Parrado,Jennifer R. Fishman,L.A. Bradley,Cynthia A. Moore,Muin J. Khoury +7 more
TL;DR: A systematic search to identify genetic tests that are sold DTC without involving a health care provider found low adherence to recommendations for the DTC genetic tests for risk of thrombosis and the need to improve the delivery of DTC Genetic tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the measurement of susceptibility in epidemiologic studies.
TL;DR: The authors derive simple estimates of the proportion of susceptibles in a population based on relative risk, and disease and exposure frequencies, which increases with increasing disease frequency and relative risk but declines at high exposure frequency.
