Overview

This study involves the one-time collection of whole blood or saliva samples for thed storage of DNA for use in ongoing and future ChiLDReN studies.

Description

The purpose of this study is to establish a mechanism to collect a genetic biosample from thed their biological parents previously enrolled into clinical research under ChiLDReN-supported protocols (PROBE, BASIC, LOGIC, and MITOHEP). The samples will be linkedhe data previously collected on the participant. Samples will be stored in the Nationalute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) specimen repository and will be used in ongoing and future Network and Ancillary Studies of ChiLDReN to further addresshe pathophysiology and outcomes of these liver diseases.

Inclusion Criteria:
  • For Child Participants
    1. Previous enrollment in PROBE, BASIC, LOGIC, or MITOHEP
    2. Exited from one of the aforementioned studies.
    3. Consent for DNA sample collection obtained during enrollment during enrollment tohe aforementioned studies but sample not previously collected.
    4. Still followed at the clinical site.
  • For Biological Parent Participants
    1. Biological parents of previously consented child participant without collectionDNA biospecimen.
    2. Child still followed at the clinical site.
Exclusion Criteria:
  • For Child Participants
    1. Participant is deceased
    2. Participant exited from prior study due to violating eligibility criteria
    3. Participant cannot be contacted
  • For Biological Parent Participants
