METHODS The USPSTF reviewed the evidence on risk assessment,genetic counseling, and genetic testing for potentially harmful BRCA mutations in asymptomatic women with a family history of breast or ovarian c...
With the recent completion of the sequencing of the Human Genome, genetic testing will increasingly become available for a greater number of medical conditions, many of which are those that manifest in adulthood (e.g., various cancers, cardiovascular disease, diabetes) or for which little or no treatments are available (e.g., Alzheimer disease). Genetic services, defined here as those relating ...
PURPOSE Although guidelines recommend in-person counseling before BRCA1/BRCA2 gene testing, genetic counseling is increasingly offered by telephone. As genomic testing becomes more common, evaluating alternative delivery approaches becomes increasingly salient. We tested whether telephone delivery of BRCA1/2 genetic counseling was noninferior to in-person delivery. PATIENTS AND METHODS Partic...
BACKGROUND Identification of low-income women with the rare but serious risk of hereditary cancer and their referral to appropriate services presents an important public health challenge. We report the results of formative research to reach thousands of women for efficient identification of those at high risk and expedient access to free genetic services. External validity is maximized by empha...
Venous Thrombosis is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in Western populations and in 30% of cases is associated to genetic susceptibility. Ideally, the identification of carriers of such susceptibility, known as thrombophilia, may allow for predicting the likelihood of recurrence in symptomatic patients and the risk of thrombosis in their relatives, leading to tailored plans of therapy a...
