The paper examines how modifier variants affect clinical outcomes in individuals with primary disease variants, showing context-dependent phenotypic associations and synergistic interactions.

The paper examines how assortative mating and parental genetic relatedness influence the pathogenicity of variably expressive variants in neurodevelopmental disorders.

The paper shows that rare secondary mutations in functionally intolerant genes affect the expressivity of neurodevelopmental disorders in individuals with primary mutations.
