The 14 pages that link to Carrier screening, each with the reason it gives.

• Autosomal recessive inheritanceRelated: Screening can identify couples with increased risk of having an affected child.

• GenotypeRelated: It identifies genotypes that may confer reproductive risk when paired with a partner’s genotype.

• ConsanguinityRelated: Screening can identify shared recessive variants in couples with common ancestry.

• Genetic disorderRelated: Screening can reveal reproductive risks even when carriers have no symptoms.

• Molecular genetic testingRelated: It can estimate reproductive risk before or during pregnancy.

• Pedigree chartRelated: Pedigree patterns can help identify families for targeted carrier testing.

• Tay–Sachs diseaseRelated: HEXA carrier testing informs reproductive decisions and has reduced disease incidence in some populations.

• Canavan diseaseRelated: Testing for ASPA variants can inform reproductive decisions in families at risk.

• Alström syndromeRelated: Testing can assess reproductive risk when familial ALMS1 variants are known.
