Hi Betsy,

chrX:83620782-84141624
There are 3 DECIPHER entries showing in the browser for 
chrX:83620782-84141624. They all show as belonging on X (on both UCSC 
and DECIPHER), not 1. I'm not sure where you're seeing chr1. Try 
resetting the UCSC browser and looking again, just in case. The entries 
on DECIPHER:
https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/patient/253735
https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/patient/251913
https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/patient/253611


chr18:46578692-46649148
There are two DECIPHER entries showing here. The coords listed for those 
in DECIPHER match the coords in the browser.

For this one, https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/patient/249279, there may be 
some confusion because this entry spans almost the entire chromosome. 
Zoom out 100% in the browser and you'll see. Note it's coords from 
DECIPHER: chr18: 10001-78016181. So that is expected to show up in 18p 
and 18q. It does seem a little odd, but if there's an error, it's on 
DECIPHER's end.

Again, on the other one showing up here: 
https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/patient/1581. If you look at DECIPHER 
there are two occurrences (click Aberrations tab in DECIPHER). One 
covers most of 18p, the other most of 18q. So you'd expect to see 1581 
in 18p and 18q, and we're correctly showing what DECIPHER has listed.

You may want to contact DECIPHER if you are concerned about the validity 
of any of these entries.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions:
