'My children are constantly poorly and all our physical and mental health isn’t doing well'

She said: “My children are constantly poorly and all our physical and mental health isn’t doing well.

The family, who are now expecting a fifth child, have long been asking to be moved to a larger flat but claim they are always told no four-bedroom properties are available and they cannot be moved into a three-bedroom.Mrs Day, who is a carer for her eight-year-old daughter who has special needs, explained that she has had to put beds in the front room and move her sons in with her and her husband to get them out of their “unlivable” bedroom.

Assistant director at Thrive Homes Robert Berry said: “We are in contact with Ms Day about the mould issue and we are due to visit her on Friday 6th January to carry out an inspection.

Calculating variant penetrance from family history of disease and average family size in population-scale data - Genome MedicineCalculating variant penetrance from family history of disease and average family size in population-scale data - Genome MedicineBackground Genetic penetrance is the probability of a phenotype when harbouring a particular pathogenic variant. Accurate penetrance estimates are important across biomedical fields including genetic counselling, disease research, and gene therapy. However, existing approaches for penetrance estimation require, for instance, large family pedigrees or availability of large databases of people affected and not affected by a disease. Methods We present a method for penetrance estimation in autosomal dominant phenotypes. It examines the distribution of a variant among people affected (cases) and unaffected (controls) by a phenotype within population-scale data and can be operated using cases only by considering family disease history. It is validated through simulation studies and candidate variant-disease case studies. Results Our method yields penetrance estimates which align with those obtained via existing approaches in the Parkinson’s disease LRRK2 gene and pulmonary arterial hypertension BMPR2 gene case studies. In the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis case studies, examining penetrance for variants in the SOD1 and C9orf72 genes, we make novel penetrance estimates which correspond closely to understanding of the disease. Conclusions The present approach broadens the spectrum of traits for which reliable penetrance estimates can be obtained. It has substantial utility for facilitating the characterisation of disease risks associated with rare variants with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. The yielded estimates avoid any kinship-specific effects and can circumvent ascertainment biases common when sampling rare variants among control populations.
