Before NBS, some parents were unaware of the purpose of the heel prick test. During the screening process, parents expressed mixed emotions of confusion, anxiety, and fear. Most lacked understanding of X-ALD and did not like the way the information was disclosed. All were referred to genetics and had positive feedback on this interaction. All were followed by endocrinology and neurology. Barriers included lack of access to clinics during the COVID-19 pandemic and lack of PCPs\u2019 knowledge about X-ALD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, parents were grateful for NBS but expressed concerns about the medicalization of their children\u2019s childhood. The referral process is divided into 3 stages: screening, diagnostic, and treatment\/management. Parents had both positive and negative feedback at various points in the referral process. Study results will help improve the NBS referral process in the Southern US and have implications for other locations that may choose to add X-ALD to their NBS programs in the future.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/21501319251337182","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,29]],"date-time":"2025-06-29T13:38:34Z","timestamp":1751204314000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Perceptions and Experiences of Families of Infants Diagnosed with X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) via Newborn Screening in Georgia and Kentucky"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-4776-6066","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sharanya","family":"Iyer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5205-5121","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aileen","family":"Kenneson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Genetics, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nadia","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Genetics, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gwen","family":"Gunn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Genetics, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-020-71248-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/TACG.S359479"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1750-3639.2010.00392.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ymgme.2015.02.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/gim.2016.68"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13023-019-1008-6"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(05)74456-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bbmt.2018.09.036"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1700554"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_11_2","first-page":"1","volume-title":"GeneReviews(\u00ae)","author":"Steinberg SJ","year":"1993","unstructured":"Steinberg SJ, Moser AB, Raymond GV.
