These variations are called \u201cvariants of unknown significance\u201d (or \u201cVUS\u201d), and they are not used in the WISDOM risk assessment or in determining medical recommendations. Your results may indicate a VUS was found, but specific details are not provided in your report unless you request them from Color Health.<\/p><p>However, If you have a VUS and scientists determine during the course of the study that the VUS does increase cancer risk, Color Health will issue an updated report reflecting that change and you will be notified by a Breast Health Specialist and receive the updated report.<\/p><p>Since there is rapid progress being made in the discovery of genes related to cancer, it is possible that we will continue to test new genes in your sample, even after you have been assigned to your screening group.

In addition, Color will also look for small alterations in all your genes that might contribute to breast cancer risk. Scientists call these minor differences single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The SNP results will not be reported but will be incorporated into your screening recommendations.<\/p><p>Some gene variations are not fully understood at this time. These variations are called \u201cvariants of unknown significance\u201d (or \u201cVUS\u201d), and they are not used in the WISDOM risk assessment or in determining medical recommendations. Your results may indicate a VUS was found, but specific details are not provided in your report unless you request them from Color Health.\u00a0<\/p><p>However, If you have a VUS and scientists determine during the course of the study that the VUS does increase cancer risk, Color Health will issue an updated report reflecting that change and you will be notified by a Breast Health Specialist and receive the updated report.<\/p><p>Please note, only about 1-3% of women test positive for a gene alteration.<\/p><p>We will provide the results of your genetic testing to you as part of the study. If you test positive for a cancer related gene, the Color Health team will provide you with a genetics consultation. If the positive gene is related to breast cancer, you will also receive a personalized consultation with a WISDOM Breast Health Specialist. \u00a0A WISDOM Breast Health Specialist will be available to talk with you about your results and what they mean to your health and to your family members\u2019 health. \u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n                <\/div><div class=\"eael-accordion-list\">\n                <div id=\"can-i-receive-information-about-my-ancestry-from-my-genetic-test\" class=\"elementor-tab-title eael-accordion-header\" tabindex=\"0\" data-tab=\"10\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-11310\"><span class=\"eael-accordion-tab-title\">Can I receive information about my ancestry from my genetic test?<\/span><span class=\"fa-toggle fa-toggle-svg eaa-svg\"><svg xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"8px\" height=\"15px\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 15\"><desc>Created with Lunacy<\/desc><path d=\"M1.49231 0.127768L7.86154 7.11244C8.04615 7.31687 8.04615 7.65758 7.86154 7.86201L1.49231 14.8467C1.30769 15.0511 1 15.0511 0.815385 14.8467L0.138462 14.0971C-0.0461538 13.8927 -0.0461538 13.552 0.138462 13.3475L5.15385 7.86201C5.33846 7.65758 5.33846 7.31687 5.15385 7.11244L0.169231 1.62692C-0.0153846 1.42249 -0.0153846 1.08177 0.169231 0.877342L0.846154 0.127768C1.03077 -0.0425894 1.30769 -0.0425894 1.49231 0.127768Z\" id=\"Path\" fill=\"#979797\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" stroke=\"none\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/div><div id=\"elementor-tab-content-11310\" class=\"eael-accordion-content clearfix\" data-tab=\"10\" aria-labelledby=\"can-i-receive-information-about-my-ancestry-from-my-genetic-test\"><p>Color Health provides the genetic testing for WISDOM Study participants in the Personalized Group.<\/p><p>In your Color portal, you may have the option to opt in to receive an ancestry report through Color.

Screening mammograms are not 100% accurate and do not catch every cancer.<\/p><\/div>\n                <\/div><div class=\"eael-accordion-list\">\n                <div id=\"do-i-need-to-get-a-specific-type-of-mammogram-such-as-2d-or-3d\" class=\"elementor-tab-title eael-accordion-header\" tabindex=\"0\" data-tab=\"7\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2357\"><span class=\"eael-accordion-tab-title\">Do I need to get a specific type of mammogram such as 2D or 3D?<\/span><span class=\"fa-toggle fa-toggle-svg eaa-svg\"><svg xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"8px\" height=\"15px\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 15\"><desc>Created with Lunacy<\/desc><path d=\"M1.49231 0.127768L7.86154 7.11244C8.04615 7.31687 8.04615 7.65758 7.86154 7.86201L1.49231 14.8467C1.30769 15.0511 1 15.0511 0.815385 14.8467L0.138462 14.0971C-0.0461538 13.8927 -0.0461538 13.552 0.138462 13.3475L5.15385 7.86201C5.33846 7.65758 5.33846 7.31687 5.15385 7.11244L0.169231 1.62692C-0.0153846 1.42249 -0.0153846 1.08177 0.169231 0.877342L0.846154 0.127768C1.03077 -0.0425894 1.30769 -0.0425894 1.49231 0.127768Z\" id=\"Path\" fill=\"#979797\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" stroke=\"none\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/div><div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2357\" class=\"eael-accordion-content clearfix\" data-tab=\"7\" aria-labelledby=\"do-i-need-to-get-a-specific-type-of-mammogram-such-as-2d-or-3d\"><p>No, participants are welcome to get either a 2D or 3D mammogram.<\/p><\/div>\n                <\/div><div class=\"eael-accordion-list\">\n                <div id=\"what-does-my-breast-density-mean\" class=\"elementor-tab-title eael-accordion-header\" tabindex=\"0\" data-tab=\"8\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2358\"><span class=\"eael-accordion-tab-title\">What does my breast density mean?<\/span><span class=\"fa-toggle fa-toggle-svg eaa-svg\"><svg xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"8px\" height=\"15px\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 15\"><desc>Created with Lunacy<\/desc><path d=\"M1.49231 0.127768L7.86154 7.11244C8.04615 7.31687 8.04615 7.65758 7.86154 7.86201L1.49231 14.8467C1.30769 15.0511 1 15.0511 0.815385 14.8467L0.138462 14.0971C-0.0461538 13.8927 -0.0461538 13.552 0.138462 13.3475L5.15385 7.86201C5.33846 7.65758 5.33846 7.31687 5.15385 7.11244L0.169231 1.62692C-0.0153846 1.42249 -0.0153846 1.08177 0.169231 0.877342L0.846154 0.127768C1.03077 -0.0425894 1.30769 -0.0425894 1.49231 0.127768Z\" id=\"Path\" fill=\"#979797\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" stroke=\"none\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/div><div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2358\" class=\"eael-accordion-content clearfix\" data-tab=\"8\" aria-labelledby=\"what-does-my-breast-density-mean\"><p data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559683&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559731&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335562764&quot;:2,&quot;335562765&quot;:0.9,&quot;335562766&quot;:4,&quot;335562767&quot;:7.5,&quot;335562768&quot;:4,&quot;335562769&quot;:0}\"><span data-usefontface=\"true\" data-contrast=\"none\">Breast density is a measure of how much fibrous and glandular tissue there is in your breast, as compared to fat\u00a0<\/span><span data-usefontface=\"true\" data-contrast=\"none\">tissue.

Our goal is to include data on environmental exposures in future research, and potentially integrate it into current risk models.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>To estimate exposure to environmental toxins across a life span, researchers must capture detailed information on where a person has lived and worked during their life. Several epidemiological studies have used data available in third-party databases such as LexisNexis Inc to obtain detailed residential histories.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><p>LexisNexis uses a myriad of data sources such as driver&#8217;s license and credit history records to compile addresses. Your first and last name, date of birth, and current address will be used to match addresses and dates of residence in the LexisNexis database.\u00a0 \u00a0(In the future we will ask if you&#8217;d like to provide the last 4 digits of your social security number to improve accuracy of this linkage. This will be optional and will not impact your participation). \u00a0There is high agreement (72-93%) between LexisNexis addresses and participant-reported addresses. Further, LexisNexis addresses accounts for approximately 71% of lifetime residential histories. This data will complement the optional residential history questionnaire we will also send to all participants.\u00a0 In future research we will use residential histories to estimate cumulative environmental exposures over time and examine the association with breast cancer risk.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>If you would prefer not to have your personal identifiers linked with LexisNexis, please contact the WISDOM Study at<a href=\"mailto:info@wisdomstudy.org\"> info@wisdomstudy.org<\/a> or call 855.729.2844.<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n                <\/div><div class=\"eael-accordion-list\">\n                <div id=\"what-are-the-risks-associated-with-third-party-data-linkages-for-me-as-a-participant\" class=\"elementor-tab-title eael-accordion-header\" tabindex=\"0\" data-tab=\"4\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-5694\"><span class=\"eael-accordion-tab-title\">What are the risks associated with third-party data linkages for me as a participant?<\/span><span class=\"fa-toggle fa-toggle-svg eaa-svg\"><svg xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"8px\" height=\"15px\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 15\"><desc>Created with Lunacy<\/desc><path d=\"M1.49231 0.127768L7.86154 7.11244C8.04615 7.31687 8.04615 7.65758 7.86154 7.86201L1.49231 14.8467C1.30769 15.0511 1 15.0511 0.815385 14.8467L0.138462 14.0971C-0.0461538 13.8927 -0.0461538 13.552 0.138462 13.3475L5.15385 7.86201C5.33846 7.65758 5.33846 7.31687 5.15385 7.11244L0.169231 1.62692C-0.0153846 1.42249 -0.0153846 1.08177 0.169231 0.877342L0.846154 0.127768C1.03077 -0.0425894 1.30769 -0.0425894 1.49231 0.127768Z\" id=\"Path\" fill=\"#979797\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" stroke=\"none\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/div><div id=\"elementor-tab-content-5694\" class=\"eael-accordion-content clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" aria-labelledby=\"what-are-the-risks-associated-with-third-party-data-linkages-for-me-as-a-participant\"><div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\"><div class=\"layoutArea\"><div class=\"column\"><p>There are minimal risks associated with third-party data linkages for you.<\/p><p>Information about you (first and last name, current address, date of birth, &#8211; and last 4 digits of your social security number if you choose to provide them) will be shared with LexisNexis via an encrypted file.\u00a0 LexisNexis will then search their databases and compile residential addresses and corresponding dates at each location.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>LexisNexis is routinely involved in similar research nationwide and has robust protocols for data access and sharing.

However, all the environmental data we will use is publicly available and we can share these datasets with you so that you can look up exposures at your address and where you work. These datasets are captured and created by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and quantify environmental exposures at the census tract level. In our process, we assign the address in which you live to a given census tract, and then utilize the EPA data to estimate the environmental exposure burden in that given location. The datasets we use examine several different types of environmental exposures including but not limited to: air pollution, superfund site proximity and water pollution. In the future, if we find that this data influences breast cancer risk, we may share this information back with you.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n                <\/div><div class=\"eael-accordion-list\">\n                <div id=\"will-environmental-exposure-information-influence-my-risk-estimation\" class=\"elementor-tab-title eael-accordion-header\" tabindex=\"0\" data-tab=\"6\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-5696\"><span class=\"eael-accordion-tab-title\">Will environmental exposure information influence my risk estimation?<\/span><span class=\"fa-toggle fa-toggle-svg eaa-svg\"><svg xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"8px\" height=\"15px\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 15\"><desc>Created with Lunacy<\/desc><path d=\"M1.49231 0.127768L7.86154 7.11244C8.04615 7.31687 8.04615 7.65758 7.86154 7.86201L1.49231 14.8467C1.30769 15.0511 1 15.0511 0.815385 14.8467L0.138462 14.0971C-0.0461538 13.8927 -0.0461538 13.552 0.138462 13.3475L5.15385 7.86201C5.33846 7.65758 5.33846 7.31687 5.15385 7.11244L0.169231 1.62692C-0.0153846 1.42249 -0.0153846 1.08177 0.169231 0.877342L0.846154 0.127768C1.03077 -0.0425894 1.30769 -0.0425894 1.49231 0.127768Z\" id=\"Path\" fill=\"#979797\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" stroke=\"none\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/div><div id=\"elementor-tab-content-5696\" class=\"eael-accordion-content clearfix\" data-tab=\"6\" aria-labelledby=\"will-environmental-exposure-information-influence-my-risk-estimation\"><div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"><div class=\"layoutArea\"><div class=\"column\"><p>Our estimates of your environmental exposures based on your occupational and residential history will not influence your risk estimation at this time.
