"In 2 recent studies trialing in-clinic testing by non-GC providers, germline testing substantially increased (3.5-fold to 6.5-fold) . . . when compared with the traditional model. In doing so, the wait time for genetic testing is significantly reduced because consenting patients are tested in their initial diagnostic appointments. This may also address the barrier of high cost to the patient. Recent data have shown that models requiring genetic counselor input prior to testing create barriers specifically for low-income populations." #precisionmedicine #precisiononcology #germline #genetictesting #hereditarycancertesting #genetics

Online first (pre-proof) article out today by my team. Historically, Townes-Brocks Syndrome has been been identified through the triad of ear/hearing, anorectal, and hand/thumb malformations; and confirmed through SALL1 genetic testing. Using a genotype first approach (reverse phenotyping) we noticed that the incidence of SALL1 in kidney disease is non-negligible and that many patients had 0 or 1 of the classic features. Of all the positives/monogenic cases of kidney disease we've identified by Renasight, 1:342 has been due to a SALL1 loss-of-function variant. https://lnkd.in/eAf2dsrW

Thanks Clinical Trials Arena for the insightful article on the need for #genetictesting in #Parkinsonsdisease. CENTOGENE's paper in Brain analysing data from the #ROPAD study suggests data-driven, genetic counselling could be used to promote a possible policy change to apply genetic testing as a routine part of patient evaluation and care in #Parkinsons. #multiomics #LRRK2 #geneticvariants

👁Let's look at how genetic testing can detect and manage common eye diseases like Retinitis Pigmentosa, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), and Glaucoma. Let's take a closer look at how genetic testing involves analyzing an individual's DNA to identify specific gene mutations or variations associated with these eye conditions. Providing valuable insights into an individual's predisposition to these diseases, enabling proactive measures for prevention, early intervention, and personalized treatment strategies. So, if you're concerned about your eye health, genetic testing might be worth considering. 💡 https://lnkd.in/d8Gan8-U #Retinitis #genetictesting #Glaucoma #personalizedtreatment #eyehealthmatters

Often we struggle to find the right answers at the right time to questions that help us understand and guide us through. Cancer is like that. It is a complex disease, mysterious to understand, and to keep it out of our lives we need to know how to go about it. Jyoti BajpaiDikshit in this blog offers a set of answers that goes from basic to advanced cancer knowledge-enriching information.
Lack of adequate information around Cancer makes it seem like a mysterious disease to many. Several queries need to be answered to understand this disease better in order to prevent or treat it. Here is a blog by Dr. Jyoti Bajpai Dikshit - carrying pertinent queries and responses on cancer causes, its genetics, and the benefits of genetic counselling.
