24,25BRCA2 carriers are more likely to develop estrogen receptor–positive cancers, so their lower contralateral breast cancer risk estimates may in part be due to greater use of endocrine therapy. Hormone and chemotherapeutic treatments were not considered, so the present estimates represent risks ...

Note that each number in parentheses [1, 2, 3, etc.] is a clickable link to peer-reviewed scientific studies. A plus sign next to the number “[1+, 2+, etc...]” means that the information is found within the full scientific study rather than the abstract. Learn about theBRCA1and...

(Dv ∣ Data) that result from a given model. We also compute Bayesian estimates of the sensitivity, specificity, false-positive, false-negative, and no-call rates associated with each VarCall model. In particular, for each model, we estimate the conditional distributions over the estimated...
That is a one in eight lifetime risk for every woman. One in every 500 women will test positive for the BRCA genetic mutation in their lifetime, making it very rare ("BRCA Gene Mutations"). Testing positive means that genetically, a person has heightened cancer risks.Nilan, Elizabeth...
A clinical diagnostic laboratory validation of the Ion Torrent platform demonstrated an absence of false negatives and a 10 % false positive rate [33]. With the availability of a three-tube multiplex for the complete BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes we sought to apply this approach to a cohort of ...
Top: correlation matrix of these genes indicating strong positive pairwise correlations within control samples (Pearson’s R = 0.92, 0.91, and 0.89) and modest positive correlations within BRCA2 carriers (Pearson’s R = 0.33, 0.28, 0.27). Sample IDs, age, and parity of the samples are as...
Say I'd had a lumpectomy and then I had the BRCA gene test and I tested positive then I might then have had to go on and have further treatment [surgery]or chosen to go on and have further treatment [surgery] which I could have had done initially (Breast, NMD). Here, Sarah ...
In short, copy numbers for both the Watson (negative) and Crick (positive) strand were called and breakpoints were defined as changes in copy number state. These breakpoints are then refined with read-resolution to make full use of the sequencing data. As Aneufinder2 also detects stable ...
