Rare genetic disorders in Iraq

Meer over het boek

The book presents a comprehensive study of rare genetic disorders in Iraqi patients, highlighting the significant impact of war and economic sanctions on genetic research in the country. It documents the prevalence of both common and extremely rare disorders, including Coffin Siris syndrome and cutis laxa type II, as well as unique genetic associations observed for the first time in Iraq. The findings contribute valuable insights into genetic conditions that are particularly rare in the Arab population, emphasizing the need for further research in this underrepresented area.
