Rare CNVs and phenome-wide profiling: a tale of brain-structural divergence and phenotypical convergence
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Copy number variations (CNVs) are rare genomic deletions and duplications that can exert profound effects on brain and behavior. Previous reports of pleiotropy in CNVs imply that they converge on shared mechanisms at some level of pathway cascades, from genes to large-scale neural circuits to the phenome. However, studies to date have primarily examined single CNV loci in small clinical cohorts. It remains unknown how distinct CNVs escalate the risk for the same developmental and psychiatric disorders. Here, we quantitatively dissect the impact on brain organization and behavioral differentiation across eight key CNVs. In 534 clinical CNV carriers from multiple sites, we explored CNV-specific brain morphology patterns. We extensively annotated these CNV-associated patterns with deep phenotyping assays through the UK Biobank resource. Although the eight CNVs cause disparate brain changes, they are tied to similar phenotypic profiles across ∼1000 lifestyle indicators. Our population-level investigation established brain structural divergences and phenotypical convergences of CNVs, with direct relevance to major brain disorders.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
