"Well, good luck with that": reactions to learning of increased genetic risk for Alzheimer disease.

Genetics in medicine : official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics - 1 Nov 2018

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Apolipoprotein-E (APOE) genetic testing to estimate risk for developing late-onset Alzheimer disease is increasingly being offered without prior genetic counseling or preparation. Consumer interest continues to grow, raising the question of how best to conduct such testing. METHODS: Twenty-six semistructured interviews were carried out to study the reactions of individuals who had already learned of...
