Diagnostic, Predisposing evidence:
Predisposing: The study discusses "inherited thrombocytopenias," indicating that the variants are germline and confer inherited risk for developing this disorder. The mention of "inherited or sustained thrombocytopenia of unknown etiology" supports the classification as predisposing.
Diagnostic: The identification of "pathogenic" or "likely pathogenic" variants in patients with thrombocytopenia suggests that these variants are used to confirm or classify the disease. The use of whole exome sequencing to elucidate potential pathogenic genetic variants further supports this classification.
