Overview
This next‑generation sequencing analysis reads the entire coding region of the POMGNT1 gene to identify pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants underlying muscular dystrophy‑dystroglycanopathy type B3 (congenital with intellectual disability). The test provides a definitive molecular diagnosis, enabling precise prognosis, carrier testing, and prenatal counselling.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a DHA‑licensed neurologist, I emphasise that a positive POMGNT1 result must be correlated with clinical findings—muscle biopsy, brain MRI, and developmental assessments. A negative result does not exclude other dystroglycanopathies; further genetic testing may be required. Please never alter or stop prescribed therapy without consulting your managing physician.”
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License 61713011
⚠️ Medication Warning
Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
- Exclusion Criteria: Individuals with uncontrolled bleeding disorders; testing on minors (<18 years) requires explicit legal guardian consent per UAE CDS Law 2026.
- ER Red Flags: Seek immediate emergency care if you experience acute respiratory distress, severe muscle weakness with difficulty swallowing, or sudden loss of consciousness.
- Home Collection Notice: Fasting is not required; however, inform the phlebotomist of any anticoagulant use.
