Genetic testing for cleft lip and palate in Egyptian patients
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks for a specific genetic change in people born with a cleft lip (with or without a cleft palate) that is not linked to a syndrome. If you have this type of cleft and are of Egyptian origin, you may be able to take part and help us understand the genetic causes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Have a cleft lip or a cleft lip and palate
- Cleft must not be part of a genetic syndrome
- Be of Egyptian descent
