Article Synopsis
- Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are prevalent in children with Down syndrome, affecting 40-50% of this population.
- A study sequenced the genomes of a diverse group of children with Down syndrome, both with CHD and with normal hearts, to explore the genetic factors associated with these heart defects.
- While no specific genetic variants reached significant levels, several loci were identified with suggestive links to risk factors for different types of CHD, providing insights into potential genetic contributors to these defects.
