The fourth map: Results of genetic and genomic analyses and associated meanings. The results are coded with symbols to represent the following categories: (1) information such as ancestry or traits that is not generally thought of as related to health (X), (2) results typically considered “normal” (i.e., no detected variations or changes such as polymorphisms or CNVs that are generally considered benign or normal variation) (circle), (3) inherited and acquired variants that are typically considered abnormal and have associated health or reproductive consequences (solid hexagon), and (4) variants for which the clinical significance is unknown (upper left corner shaded). Abbreviation: LOD, Log of the Odds, VUS, Variant of Unknown Significance.
