How this works

A 30-second guide to what the report means, where it comes from, and what it deliberately doesn't do.

Evidence tiers

Every finding carries a tier so you can see how solid it is at a glance.

Established

Supported by peer-reviewed research and recognized databases such as ClinVar, SNPedia, and the GWAS Catalog. These are single-marker effects that have been studied directly.

Interpretation

A speculative or combination-based inference that has not yet been validated by dedicated studies. It reads multiple markers together to suggest a pattern — informed, but not clinically proven.

Single markers vs. combinations

The report keeps these two kinds of findings clearly apart, in separate labelled sections — they are never mixed together.

  • Individual markers describe one SNP whose effect is research-backed on its own.
  • Combination findings read two or more SNPs together. We treat these as lower-certainty by default: even when each gene's individual effect is well established, the combined read is an interpretation, because the specific interaction has rarely been studied as a unit and effects do not simply add up.

Where findings come from

What this tool does not do

  • It does not diagnose any condition or disease.
  • It does not predict your medical future or your risk of illness.
  • It is not a substitute for genetic counseling.
  • It is not a substitute for advice from a doctor or qualified clinician.
