To enhance the efficiency of identifying rare variants within the Taiwanese population and to support genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and imputation studies for genetic risk prediction in the Han population, we have developed the National Health Research Institutes (NHRI) reference panel (NHRI-RP-1). NHRI-RP-1 i...

Background
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major global public health issue, with genetic factors playing a significant role in kidney function. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous loci associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), most studies relied on a single ti...

The results highlight the diagnostic utility of this combined strategy, integrating LRS with marker-mediated refinements that validated by MLPA assays, in detecting complex STRC variants and advance the understanding of the genetic etiology of SNHI that remains unresolved by conventional NGS approaches.
