Furthermore, five patients with NPHP1 mutations carried the AHI1 variant R830W, which was predicted to be "possibly damaging" and was found with significantly higher frequency than in healthy control subjects and in patients with NPHP1 mutations without neurologic symptoms (five of 26 versus four of 276 and three of 152 alleles; P < 0.001 and P < 0.002, respectively).
