Understanding Your Results

The test report will indicate whether a pathogenic variant in the NAA10 gene was identified. If positive, the report will specify the variant and its clinical significance.
📊

Positive (Pathogenic variant)

Confirms diagnosis of Ogden syndrome. Genetic counseling recommended for family members.

📊

Negative (No variant)

No mutation found in NAA10 gene. Other genetic causes should be considered.

📊

Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)

A variant was found but its clinical significance is unknown. Further testing or family studies may be needed.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a clinical geneticist or pediatrician if the child shows developmental delay, dysmorphic features, or unexplained seizures. Genetic counseling is advised before and after testing.

Limitations

  • NGS may not detect large deletions/duplications or deep intronic variants
  • Variant of uncertain significance (VUS) may require further testing
  • Test does not assess other genes associated with similar phenotypes
  • Negative result does not exclude all genetic causes

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk of bruising or infection at the blood draw site
  • Psychological impact of receiving a genetic diagnosis
  • Potential for uncertain results (VUS)

Interfering Factors

  • Poor DNA quality or quantity
  • Contamination during sample collection
  • Recent blood transfusion (may dilute DNA)
  • Bone marrow transplant (chimerism)

It is useful for detecting large deletions/duplications but not point mutations in NAA10.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Ogden syndrome?
Ogden syndrome is a rare X-linked genetic disorder caused by mutations in the NAA10 gene, leading to severe developmental delay, intellectual disability, and multiple congenital anomalies.
How is Ogden syndrome diagnosed?
Diagnosis is confirmed by genetic testing, specifically sequencing of the NAA10 gene using NGS technology.
What is the cost of the NAA10 gene test at DNA Labs India?
The test costs INR 20,000, which includes genetic counseling, sequencing, and a comprehensive report.
What sample is required for the test?
A blood sample (2-3 ml in EDTA) or one drop of blood on an FTA card is required.
Is fasting required before the test?
No, fasting is not required for this genetic test.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available within 3-4 weeks after the sample is received.
Will I receive raw data files?
Yes, DNA Labs India provides raw data files (FASTQ, VCF) along with the clinical report for transparency.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, we offer free home sample collection across major cities in India for online bookings.
Can females be affected by Ogden syndrome?
Ogden syndrome primarily affects males, but females can be carriers and may show mild symptoms in rare cases.
What does a positive test result mean?
A positive result confirms the presence of a pathogenic variant in the NAA10 gene, indicating Ogden syndrome.
What if the test result is negative?
A negative result means no mutation was found in the NAA10 gene, but other genetic causes should be explored.
Is genetic counseling included?
Yes, a genetic counseling session is included to help interpret results and discuss implications.
