cardiomyopathy
A recently published case study shows how the diversity gap in genomics can cause misdiagnosis of underrepresented populations.
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Risk, Severity Informed by Polygenic Risk Scores
Investigators came up with polygenic risk scores for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy using genetic risk variants gleaned from a large genome-wide association study.
NHGRI to Fund Population Genomic Screening in Primary Care Network With $38.1M
Starting next year, the network will implement a population genomic screening pilot program for common, actionable genomic conditions in a primary care setting over five years.
Genetic Architecture for Comorbid Depression, Coronary Artery Disease Emerges from Study
Genetic and electronic health record analyses suggest patients with both coronary artery disease and depression share variants in genes involved in inflammatory and cardiomyopathy processes.
Increase in Healthcare Utilization, Costs Modest After Genetic Risk Results Return
Researchers tracked follow-up healthcare use and cost in the 12 months after individuals and providers received pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant results for five conditions.
