Overview
The GHRHR Gene Growth Hormone Deficiency NGS Test screens the entire coding region of the GHRHR gene using next-generation sequencing to detect pathogenic variants linked to isolated growth hormone deficiency type IB (IGHD1B). This advanced genetic analysis provides a definitive molecular diagnosis for children and adults with short stature and suspected pituitary dysfunction, enabling targeted endocrine management and family planning. يُستخدم التحليل للتشخيص الدقيق لنقص هرمون النمو الوراثي ويُوصى به قبل بدء العلاج الهرموني.
| Feature | Our Test (NGS Panel) | Closest Alternative (Sanger Sequencing) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | 99.9% sensitivity; detects single-nucleotide variants, indels, and copy-number changes across full gene | High accuracy for known hotspots; may miss novel or deep intronic variants |
| Methodology | NGS with 200× mean coverage, Sanger validation of all pathogenic calls | Bidirectional Sanger sequencing of individual exons |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks (ISO-accredited lab) | 4–6 Weeks (often without ISO 9001 oversight) |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
Note from Dr. Prabhakar Reddy (DHA License 61713011): A negative result does not entirely exclude growth hormone deficiency, as other genetic or non-genetic etiologies may exist. I strongly advise discussing all results with a pediatric endocrinologist or clinical geneticist to integrate molecular findings with auxological and biochemical data.
⚠ Do not discontinue prescribed medication, including growth hormone therapy, without consulting your doctor.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Exclusion: Inability to provide a blood, extracted DNA, or FTA card sample; active systemic infection or severe anemia precluding venipuncture; lack of legal guardian consent for minors.
- Red Flags: Seek immediate emergency care if the patient develops sudden severe headache, visual disturbances, or signs of adrenal crisis (hypotension, vomiting) after result; these are not related to the test but require urgent evaluation.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
What does this test detect and how is it performed?
Our NGS test identifies pathogenic mutations in the GHRHR gene causing isolated growth hormone deficiency, using a simple blood draw or FTA card. The process involves DNA extraction, targeted enrichment, high-coverage sequencing, and bioinformatic analysis with manual variant interpretation by board-certified geneticists.
ما مدة ظهور النتائج وهل الفحص معتمد تأمينياً؟
تظهر النتائج خلال 3–4 أسابيع من استلام العينة، ويمكن التحقق من التغطية التأمينية عبر واتساب على الرقم +971545488731، حيث نوفر فحصاً معتمداً من هيئة الصحة بدبي.
Can I get the test done at home and receive guidance?
Yes, our VIP home collection service operates across the UAE from 8 AM to 11 PM, and includes a post- telephonic consultation with a DHA-licensed genetic counselor to explain the clinical implications of your result.
