- mythrwy 9y agoDue to a bug in our system we inadvertently provided some of our users with results from other patients. Point being, watch the weather and plan, fine, but don't become certain until you see rain falling from the sky.
- petercooper 9y agoI sympathize with this viewpoint, but I need to play devil's advocate a little, to highlight the problems with predictive diagnoses: Most Americans with this genotype go on to develop late-onset dementia. Let's say "most" is 90%. Let's also say the accuracy of this test is (and I don't know if this is realistic or not) 98%. Does the 11.8% chance of no dementia on a positive result give me enough to follow through with a plan? For me, no, though I appreciate attitudes would vary.
