Cardio Geneguard
Guard Your Heart with Genetic Foresight
Cardio Geneguard
In India, CVDs are the leading cause of death and disability and accounted for 31.8% of all deaths with stroke being predominant causing more than 80% of all CVD deaths. (https://doi.org/10.1155/2024/6894693)
Up to 80% of premature heart attacks and strokes can be prevented. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to improving cardiovascular health globally hence understanding the genetic biomarkers is important for prevention. (Global heart federation)
What Does It Do?
What does Cardio Geneguard do ? Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 17.5 million people died from CVDs in 2012, accounting for 31% of all global deaths. Research indicates that Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs) play a role in the development and progression of CVDs. For instance, certain SNPs have been associated with increased risk of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
Polygenic Risk Score (PRS)
A Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) estimates your genetic risk for heart disease and traits based on multiple small genetic variants. Unlike single-gene tests, PRS looks at thousands of markers across your genome (GWAS) to provide a more complete risk profile. Each variant contributes a small amount of risk; together, they form your total score. A higher PRS indicates a greater genetic risk for a specific disease compared to the general population.
