This gene and phenotype were reviewed during meetings between November 2023 & July 2024. The meetings included representatives of the North Thames and Central & South R21 testing GLHs and from the R21 Clinical Oversight Group. Clinical review and curation was performed by Natalie Chandler, Alison Male and Lyn Chitty (North Thames GLH), Stephanie Allen, Natalie Bibb, Esther Kinning and Denise Williams (Central & South GLH) and Natalie Canham, Anna De Burca and Samantha Doyle R21 Clinical Oversight Group.

Natalie Canham (Liverpool Women's Hospital)

Red List (low evidence)

Minimal evidence that the disorder would ever present prenatally. Oligohydramnios and placental abnormalities quoted, but neither of these would get R21. Surprisingly does not appear to present with hydrops, and not in the NIHF review. Of the three papers referenced, two do not actually have any molecular evidence, and this is not the only gene causing hypoalbuminaemia. Evidence green for gene, red for R21
