How do clinician and parent-reported data differ? An analysis of similarity and difference in the datasets from a cross-syndrome genetics cohort study (GenROC)
Parents reported more common childhood phenotypes, such as asthma and dental issues, while clinicians provided clinical phenotype descriptors, such as brain morphology and seizure semiology. It is important to understand the differences when designing studies and using datasets to appreciate their strengths and limitations.
