MyGeneRank vs Genomapp. Healthy Ethics. Kullanım & İstatistikleri
Many conditions affecting our health are caused by a combination of our environment, our behaviors, and our genes. While we can alter some factors in our lives to reduce our chances of developing different diseases (e.g., not smoking cigarettes), the contribution from our genetic risk encoded by our DNA remains with us throughout our lives. Importantly, this genetic risk can be offset by healthy behaviors. Scientists are still trying to determine the entirety of genetic factors that influence disease, but for some conditions it has been shown that the factors identified thus far can begin to identify people at high to low genetic risk. Looking across your genome, we can calculate your cumulative genetic risk score – which can be used to rank your genetic risk compared to the other worldwide populations. This app allows you to determine your genetic risk, and view how behavior changes can offset that risk.
The goal of this study is to determine how your genetic risk influences health decisions and other things that can be controlled in life. Our first genetic risk score is calculated for coronary heart disease (CAD). CAD ultimately leads to heart attacks, heart failure and sometimes sudden cardiac death and is the main reason heart disease remains as the number one cause of death worldwide. Other researchers have shown that this genetic risk score can be used to identify people with low, intermediate, and high risk for coronary heart disease. It has also been shown that the use of statins (cholesterol lowering drugs) provides greater benefit and protection against heart attack for people with high genetic risk for coronary artery disease. It has also been shown that healthy behaviors can offset genetic risk for CAD – even for high risk individuals.
Key Features:
- Calculate and provide you with your estimated genetic risk for coronary heart disease (CAD) compared to other worldwide populations.
- Calculate how your genetic risk can be offset by healthy behaviors.
- Provide your Health App data to evaluate changes in behavior after receiving genetic risk information.
- This app will be expanded to calculate your genetic risk for other diseases in the future.
Receive notifications and reminders about:
- Completing surveys.
- Availability of new genetic risk scores.
- News about other research of interest.
Eligibility:
To join this study, you must meet the following criteria:
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Allow us to access to your genetic data
The app currently only supports genetic data obtainable through 23andMe. Thus, only 23andMe customers are currently eligible. However, the app will be expanded to accept other forms genetic data sources in the future.

Genomapp helps you discover the information in your DNA by connecting it to reliable scientific sources. Our app analyzes direct-to-consumer genetic tests and presents the findings in a simple way.
Have you taken a DNA test? Did you know your genome has a lot to say? Want to learn more about your DNA? It is easier than you think.
If you had your DNA tested by a DTC genetic testing provider such as 23andMe, AncestryDNA, FamilyTreeDNA (FTDNA), MyHeritage, Genes for Good, Living DNA, or Geno 2.0, you will have access to a file containing your genetic data (raw data file). When you process this file with Genomapp, our app matches the DNA you entered to a categorized list of conditions.
*** Ready to start?
Genomapp has a Demo mode. If you want to try the app or learn how it works you can access it and test a fully functional version of the app.
*** What does Genomapp offer?
Genomapp offers 3 reports for free and 3 reports will be provided after payment.
* Complex Diseases (Markers associated to multifactorial conditions that are the result of multiple genetic and environmental factors interacting.)
* Inherited Conditions (Markers related to diseases that are caused by mutations in one gene)
* Pharmacological response (Drug-Marker associations)
* Traits (Characteristics or attributes expressed by genes and/or influenced by the environment)
* Observable signs (Markers related to physical problems or signs that a person experiences)
* Blood Groups (Markers related to antigenic diversity of human blood group systems)
*** Not Diagnostic
Please note that Genomapp is NOT for diagnostic use, it does not provide medical advice and is not a substitute for it. Consult your health care professional if you have any questions.
*** Privacy
Protecting your privacy is Genomapp's primary concern.
At Genomapp we work for the people, we do not share genetic data with third parties and We do not trade on what is unique to each person.
Your data remains in your device and is not stored or uploaded to our servers.
*** Certification
The app has been reviewed by mHealth.cat Office (TIC Salut Social Fundation). This means that the quality of the content and the usefulness of the functions it incorporates have been evaluated and that it meets the quality and reliability requirements.
*** Our Database
Genomapp's search engine allows you to search our database of more than 9500 conditions, 12400 genes and 180000 markers. We have the most comprehensive list of diseases from official scientific sources, including breast cancer, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. We also have markers for tumor suppressor genes such as BRCA1/2, PTEN and P53.
*** Easy to understand
Genomapp displays information of your DNA markers in a friendly and easy to understand way. Export your personalized genetic reports to PDF and take them everywhere.
*** Your DNA test provider is not on our list?
We are constantly adding support for new DNA test providers. In addition to files from the most popular DTC genetic testing companies such as 23andMe or AncestryDNA, Genomapp supports genetic data files in VCF format and files with a specific scheme. Currently, VCF files from WES/WGS are not compatible with Genomapp.
