Now in press: acceptance of recommendations from PGx clinical decision support for clopidogrel increased from 24% in 2015 to 63% in 2023. Wow. Great work by #pharmacogenomics at @SanfordHealth! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Big step. Medicare hadn't been able to negotiate drug prices despite the vast needs of seniors. The US wildly outspends most countries on health (and gets less. shorturl.at/l4cQv). As others' have stated more elegantly, "it's the prices, ___" (shorturl.at/jq7NO)

How frequently do relatives of patients with positive #exome sequencing results complete cascade testing? Using data from two US labs, we found that fewer than 8% of probands had at least one relative tested. Terrific work led by Julie @bcmgcprogram authors.elsevier.com/c/1gsqQ3vlFV0S…

Very happy to share this research that explores how caregivers of pediatric patients with suspected genetic conditions approach decision-making about genomic sequencing, with a specific focus on family-level considerations. Read the full article here: rdcu.be/c0qcU

Now in press: bit.ly/3B8vR7r Nice job, Julia Wynn and @HilaMilo. Interesting to re-read, "The most common reasons indicated for not sharing were that the family members were too young (38%)" just after our cascade testing paper was published bit.ly/3aSzuDz

Our study published today suggests that cascade genetic testing of siblings would reduce cancer deaths by over 50%. Still much work needs to be done in this area.
Department of Population Medicine@DeptPopMed
Little is known about using #genetic #testing on siblings of children w/mutations. New study shows sibling #cascade testing can prevent #cancer deaths. Do its benefits outweigh the $/harms? The @PROMoTeR_DPM #PreEMPT team dives deeper in @JAMANetworkOpen ow.ly/PMe950Gthit
