One of the major questions in human genetics is what percentage of individuals in the general population carry a disease-causing mutation. Based on publicly available information on genotypes from six main world populations, we created a database including data on 276,921 sequence variants, present within 187 genes associated with autosomal recessive (AR) inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). Assessment of these variants revealed that 10,044 were categorized as disease-causing mutations. We developed an algorithm to compute the gene-specific prevalence of disease, as well as the mutational burden in healthy subjects. We found that the genetic prevalence of AR-IRDs corresponds approximately to 1 case in 1,380 individuals, with 5.5 million people expected to be affected worldwide. In addition, we calculated that unaffected carriers of mutations are numerous, ranging from 1 in 2.26 individuals in Europeans to 1 in 3.50 individuals in the Finnish population. Our analysis indicates that about 2.7 billion people worldwide (36% of the population) are healthy carriers of at least one mutation that can cause AR-IRD, a value that is probably the highest across any group of Mendelian conditions in humans.

Congenital Nail abnormalities are rare ectodermal defects. Autosomal recessive nail dysplasia is much rarer. Recently it has been recognized as a condition resulting in nail dystrophy in the absence of other cutaneous or extracutaneous disorders. Few case reports have identified mutations in the Frizzled 6 (FZD6) gene in families presenting with abnormal nails consistent with Non-Syndromic Congenital Nail Dysplasia. We report a family presenting, they lived in Namin a country of the Ardabil Province, northwestern Iran in 2016, for the first time in Iran in whom we identified mutations in FZD6 with abnormal nails formation.
