Carrier statistics categorized by self-reported ethnicity
The median age was 33.0 years and mean age was 33.63 years. Most (n = 17,865) of the individuals were from 21–39 years of age. A small percentage was under 21 years (1.6%) or over 45 years (2.8%). Disease carrier states Alleles associated with 96 recessive diseases (excluding mild conditions) were identified in our 23,453Continue reading “Carrier statistics categorized by self-reported ethnicity”
Even if a cancer-predisposing mutation is present in a family, others will not get cancer, part 1
What is genetic testing? Genetic testing looks for specific inherited changes (mutations) in a person’s chromosomes, genes, or proteins. Genetic mutations can have harmful, beneficial, neutral (no effect), or uncertain effects on health. Mutations that are harmful may increase a person’s chance, or risk, of developing a disease such as cancer. Overall, inherited mutations areContinue reading “Even if a cancer-predisposing mutation is present in a family, others will not get cancer, part 1”
A DNA Ultra-sensitive test for cancers, HIV
Catching a disease in its earliest stages can lead to more effective therapies. Stanford chemists have increased the likelihood of detecting these diseases via a test that is thousands of times more sensitive than current diagnostics. BY BJORN CAREY A common theme in medicine is that detecting a disease early on can lead to moreContinue reading “A DNA Ultra-sensitive test for cancers, HIV”
