Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic variants in the MN1 gene. Positive results suggest MN1 deficiency, while negative results show no detected mutations.
📊

Positive

Pathogenic variant detected in the MN1 gene, indicating MN1 deficiency and association with meningioma risk. Consult a geneticist for further management.

📊

Negative

No pathogenic variants detected in the MN1 gene. Clinical correlation is advised if symptoms persist.

📊

Variant of Uncertain Significance

A genetic variant was found but its clinical significance is unknown. Further testing or family studies may be recommended.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If you experience symptoms like headaches, seizures, or memory loss, or have a family history of genetic disorders or meningioma, consult a healthcare provider for evaluation and possible testing.

Limitations

  • May not detect all genetic variants or mutations
  • Requires genetic counseling for interpretation
  • Results should be correlated with clinical findings

Risks & Considerations

  • Minor bruising or pain at the puncture site
  • Rare risk of infection
