- Hemolyzed or clotted sample
- Improperly labeled or contaminated sample
Understanding Your Results
Negative
No pathogenic variants detected in the NOD2 gene; standard risk for developing sarcoidosis.
Positive
Pathogenic variant detected in the NOD2 gene; increased risk for sarcoidosis. Consult a genetic counselor for further evaluation and management.
If you experience symptoms of sarcoidosis such as persistent cough, fatigue, or skin rashes, or have a family history of the condition, consult a doctor for evaluation and possible genetic testing.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all genetic variants associated with sarcoidosis
- ⚠Results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical findings
- ⚠Does not provide a definitive diagnosis of sarcoidosis
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risk from blood draw, including bruising, soreness, or rare infection at the puncture site
Interfering Factors
- ●Sample contamination
- ●Degraded DNA
- ●Hemolyzed blood sample
