Clinical & Genetic Overview
This Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) test analyses the entire coding region of the OXTR gene (oxytocin receptor) associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) susceptibility. يفحص هذا التحليل الجيني الكامل جين مستقبل الأوكسيتوسين المرتبط بقابلية الإصابة باضطراب طيف التوحد. The test delivers definitive variant detection with 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity, enabling precise risk stratification and personalised intervention planning.
Pre-Test Genetic Counseling: A board-certified genetic counsellor will conduct a pedigree chart analysis to map familial autism patterns. This session is integral to informed consent and ensures clinically meaningful interpretation of your results.
| Feature | Our Test (OXTR NGS) | Closest Alternative (Single-Gene Sanger) |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | NGS (Illumina NovaSeq, 1000x coverage) | Sanger sequencing (limited to known hotspots) |
| Diagnostic Sensitivity | 99.9% for all coding variants | ~85% (misses novel/rare variants) |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks (express optional) | 4–6 Weeks |
| Sample Type | Blood, Extracted DNA, or FTA Card | Blood only |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a clinical neurologist, I emphasise that genetic results are only one piece of the diagnostic puzzle; thorough clinical correlation with developmental history and behavioural assessments is essential,” states Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA License 61713011). “The OXTR gene alone does not confirm or exclude autism, and I urge families to interpret results in conjunction with a qualified medical professional. Our team is committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based guidance at every step of this journey.”
⚠️ Safety & Exclusion Criteria
- This test is not for standalone diagnosis; mandatory clinical correlation is required.
- Minors (under 18) must have informed consent from a legal guardian, as per CDS Law 2026 (UAE).
- Medication Warning: Do not discontinue or alter any prescribed medication without consulting your treating physician.
- Individuals with acute illness or recent blood transfusion (within 2 weeks) should postpone sample collection.
- Emergency Red Flags: If you or your child experiences sudden behavioural regression, self-injurious behaviour, or severe sleep disruption, seek immediate medical attention; this genetic test does not provide acute intervention.
UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2024 (Art. 87) and UAE Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) strictly govern the handling of genetic information. All data is processed within UAE-accredited facilities.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How accurate is the OXTR genetic test for predicting autism risk?
Our test achieves 99.9% analytical sensitivity for OXTR coding variants, but clinical prediction depends on multiple genetic and environmental factors; a positive result indicates elevated susceptibility, not certainty, and must be integrated with comprehensive developmental assessment. الاختبار دقيق للغاية لكنه لا يتنبأ بالتوحد بشكل قاطع، بل يحدد قابلية متزايدة تتطلب تقييماً سريرياً شاملاً.
2. Can I use a finger-prick FTA card for this test, and is it reliable?
Yes, a one-drop blood sample collected on an FTA card is fully validated for NGS and provides identical genomic DNA quality as whole blood, ensuring robust variant calling without venipuncture. نعم، بطاقة FTA بقطرة دم واحدة معتمدة وتوفر دقة مماثلة لعينات الدم الكامل.
3. How long will it take to receive results, and will a specialist explain them?
Standard turnaround time is 3–4 weeks; every report is reviewed by a clinical geneticist, and you will receive a complimentary telephonic post‑ guidance session with a DHA‑licensed neurologist to interpret findings. تستغرق النتائج من 3 إلى 4 أسابيع، وستحصل على جلسة إرشاد مجانية عبر الهاتف مع طبيب أعصاب مرخص.
