Understanding Your Results
Positive for KLF11 mutation
Diagnosis of MODY7 is likely. Consult a geneticist for management, treatment adjustments, and family screening recommendations.
Negative for KLF11 mutation
MODY7 is unlikely. Consider other forms of diabetes or further clinical evaluation based on symptoms.
If you have symptoms of diabetes, a family history of MODY, or if the test result is positive, consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice on management and genetic counseling.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all variants in the KLF11 gene
- ⚠Requires interpretation by a genetic specialist
- ⚠Not a substitute for clinical diagnosis
Risks & Considerations
