Basic tenets of genetic counseling, complexgeneticdisease, and management of adults with genetic diagnoses also are discussed.

T2DM is a complexgeneticdisease comprised of many metabolic disorders with a common phenotype of glucose intolerance.
3
Background: Asthma is a complexgeneticdisease characterized by reversible intermittent airway obstruction and respiratory symptoms primarily caused by acute and chronic bronchial inflammation.
4
Background: Asthma and allergic phenotypes are complexgeneticdiseases with known linkage to chromosome 5q.
5
Future directions, particularly with regard to the study of common complexgeneticdiseases, are also described.
6
This implies value in studying large well-characterized Ashkenazi populations to accelerate gene discovery in complexgeneticdiseases.
7
As with many complexgeneticdiseases, genome scans for prostate cancer have given conflicting results, often failing to provide replication of previous findings.
