Relative Risk is less than a 0.95 multiple of the Average Population

RR < 0.95

Relative Risk is effectively equal to the Average Population

0.95 < RR < 1.05

Relative Risk is more than a 1.05 multiple of the Average Population

Genetic SNP Test Results



  1. ‣In general, genetic test results seem to agree on a higher or lower Relative Risk for Heart conditions.

  2. ‣Due to the range for the Average Population, estimated My Lifetime Risk can vary by a factor of 3 - as in Venus Thromboembolism.

  3. ‣A clear trend is that risk is higher for Atrial Fibrillation, but lower for Heart Attacks, Aortic Aneurysms and others.

  4. ‣No one in our family has ever died of a heart condition, but we suffer from cases of Atrial Fibrillation.
