ABSTRACT: Background
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the most common congenital cardiac abnormality in children and the second most common in adults. This study aimed to explore the potentially causative genes in VSD patients in the Chinese Tibetan population, and to provide a theoretical basis for the genetic mechanism of VSD.Methods
Peripheral venous blood was collected from 20 VSD subjects, and whole-genome DNA was extracted. High-throughput sequencing was performed on qualified DNA samples using whole-exome sequencing (WES) technology. After filtering, detecting, and annotating qualified data, single nucleotide variations (SNVs) and insertion-deletion (InDel) markers were analyzed, and data processing software such as GATK, SIFT, Polyphen, and MutationTaster were used for comp
