Genetic testing and reproductive decision-making in Chinese families with inherited retinal disease: a cross-sectional study.

Genetic testing willingness was positively associated with child age under 12 (OR, 1.61; P = 0.019), married status (OR, 5.94; P = 0.016), and inherited retinal diseases-related strife (OR, 3.61; P = 0.014), and negatively with parental severe vision impairment (OR, 0.19; P = 0.012).

Child gender predicted unwillingness rationale ( P = 0.002); parents of males cited apprehension about results, while parents of females cited cost.
