Understanding Your Results

Results are interpreted by comparing the patient's DNA sequence to a reference genome. Pathogenic variants in the CLMP gene confirm a diagnosis of congenital short-bowel syndrome.
📊

Positive for pathogenic variant

Confirms CLMP gene mutation associated with CSBS. Genetic counseling and management planning recommended.

📊

Negative for pathogenic variant

No known mutations detected. Clinical correlation and further testing may be needed if symptoms persist.

📊

Variant of uncertain significance (VUS)

Genetic variant identified but clinical significance unknown. Follow-up with genetic counselor advised.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a healthcare provider if symptoms such as chronic diarrhea, vomiting, or weight loss persist, or for genetic counseling after receiving test results.

Limitations

  • May not detect all types of genetic variants, such as large deletions or duplications
  • Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) may be identified, requiring further evaluation
  • Test results should be correlated with clinical presentation and family history
  • Does not rule out other genetic or non-genetic causes of short-bowel syndrome

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risks from blood draw, such as bruising or infection
  • Psychological impact of genetic results; counseling provided

Interfering Factors

  • Sample contamination
  • Degraded DNA quality
  • Hemolyzed or clotted blood samples
  • Incorrect sample storage conditions

Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection for online bookings across India.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically available in 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result indicates a pathogenic mutation in the CLMP gene, confirming a genetic cause for congenital short-bowel syndrome.
Is genetic counseling included?
Yes, the test includes a genetic counseling session to discuss results, inheritance patterns, and management options.
Are there any risks associated with the test?
The test involves minimal risks from blood draw, such as bruising. Psychological support is provided through counseling.
Can this test be used for prenatal diagnosis?
It may be used for carrier testing or prenatal evaluation in families with known CLMP mutations, but consult a genetic counselor.
What should I do after receiving the results?
Discuss the results with a healthcare provider or genetic counselor to understand implications and plan for management or treatment.
