  1. aQatari CNVRs were compared to CNVRs from the 1000 Genomes Phase I study (n = 1092) [25] that were generated using next-generation sequencing technologies. Only 14 CNVRs were novel, including 9 deletions and 5 duplications. OMIM disorder – name of disorder as it appears in the OMIM database. MIM number – OMIM identifier. Del/Dup – Whether CNVR is a deletion or duplication (full or internal). Other affected genes – Other genes (not in OMIM) within the same CNV. ChrCytoband:start-end – Genomic location of the CNVR in Qataris. Size – Size of CNVR. Q1, Q2, Q3 – Qatari subpopulation (n denotes number of individuals in each subpopulation)
