description | The explosion of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has enabled the widespread use of genomic data in precision medicine. Currently, several neonatal genome projects have emerged to explore the advantages of NGS to diagnose or screen for rare genetic disorders. These projects have made remarkable achievements, but still the genome data could be further explored with the assistance of phenotype collection. In contrast, longitudinal birth cohorts are great examples to record and apply phenotypic information in clinical studies starting at the neonatal period, especially the trajectory analyses for health development or disease progression. It is obvious that efficient integration of genotype and phenotype benefits not only the clinical management of rare genetic disorders but also the risk assessment of complex diseases. Here, we first summarize the recent neonatal genome projects as well as some longitudinal birth cohorts. Then, we propose two simplified strategies by integrating genotypic and phenotypic information in precision medicine based on current studies. Finally, research collaborations, sociological issues, and future perspectives are discussed. How to maximize neonatal genomic information to benefit the pediatric population remains an area in need of more research and effort. |
