Using synthetic datasets to bridge the gap between the promise and reality of basing health-related decisions on common single nucleotide polymorphisms
2019-12-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> While the academic genetic literature has clearly shown that common genetic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and even large polygenic SNP risk scores, cannot reliably be used to determine risk of disease or to personalize interventions, a significant industry of companies providing SNP-based recommendations still exists. Healthcare practitioners must therefore be able to navigate betwe...
