The characterization and comorbidities of heterozygous Bardet-Biedl syndrome carriers
Conclusion: We found that aside from the association with overweight and obesity, heterozygous BBS mutations did not appear to increase the predisposition of individuals to comorbidities and metabolic diseases. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the genetic susceptibility associated with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (BBS), further research is warranted.PMID:38617006 | PMC:PMC11008491 | DOI:10.7150/ijms.92766
