Key points from article :
Clinicians identified adults at risk for key health conditions.
Assessment yielded highly actionable findings, most of which were not previously known.
Vital in early identification of disease and disease risk that avoid pre-mature deaths.
Done by integrating whole-genome sequencing with advanced imaging and blood metabolites.
Study used multi-modal precision health platform, the Health Nucleus™ by HLI.
~1 in 6 adult individuals (17.3%) had at least one pathogenic genetic variant.
~1 in 9 (11.9%) had genotype and phenotype associations.
These findings support clinical diagnosis of a genetic disorder.
