| الوصف: | Abstract Objectives There are many direct-to-consumer (DTC)-type personal genomic testing (PGT) services commercially available to the public, providing the specific disease susceptibilities of individuals. While these services do not appear to stimulate disease-prevention behavior, few studies have addressed the methods to do so. We investigated the effectiveness of combining a consultation with a physician with the delivery of test results from a DTC-type PGT, as a preliminary study to identify the effective genomic testing for disease-prevention. A prepared physician disclosed the PGT results of twenty healthy subjects and provided a specific consultation on the high-risk diseases for each subject. The effects on the sense of health, understanding of possible future diseases, and preventive behaviors for each subject were examined pre-PGT, post-PGT, and 3, 6, and 12 months post-PGT. Results Significant increases between the pre- and post-PGT scores were observed for the awareness of lifestyle effects on developing those diseases (P |
