Understanding Your Results
Positive for mutation
Confirms diagnosis of PIK3R1 Gene Immunodeficiency Type 36; genetic counseling and specialized care recommended.
Negative for mutation
No pathogenic variant detected; clinical correlation and further testing may be needed if symptoms persist.
Variant of uncertain significance
Requires additional family studies and clinical evaluation for interpretation.
If you experience recurrent infections, chronic diarrhea, failure to thrive, autoimmune symptoms, or have a family history of immunodeficiency, consult a healthcare professional for evaluation and possible genetic testing.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all possible mutations
- ⚠Requires genetic counseling for interpretation
- ⚠Results should be correlated with clinical symptoms
