چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundThe rapid pace of biomedical discoveries in the past few years has resulted in substantial advances in our ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent a wide variety of diseases. The sequencing of the human genome offered the possibility of understanding the etiology, pathogenesis, and risk of developing disease from a genetic perspective and has resulted, for example, in the development of genomic-based diagnostic or risk-assessment tests for a number of medical and dental conditions. To assess the scientific evidence underlying such tests and determine whether they may be useful in clinical practice, practitioners need to have a basic understanding of the state-of-the-science of genomics and genetic testing.ObjectiveTo assist practitioners in understanding the science of genomics, the American Dental Association and the Task Force on Design and Analysis in Oral Health Research co-sponsored a landmark conference, Navigating the Sea of Genomic Data, held October 28-29, 2015, at the American Dental Association headquarters building in Chicago, IL. The purpose of this conference was to review the basics of genomic science, promote sound design and analysis of genomic studies of oral diseases, and provide a basis or “framework” to guide practitioners in assessing new development in genomics and genetic tests for oral diseases.OverviewPresentations at this conference were made by 9 world-renowned scientists who discussed a wide range of topics involving genomic science, genetic testing for rare mendelian single gene disorders, and genetic testing for assessing the risk of experiencing common complex diseases. This article summarizes the key points and concepts presented by the speakers.Practical ImplicationsIt is essential for oral health care professionals to have a fundamental understanding of genomic science so that they can evaluate new advances in this field and the use of genetic testing for the benefit of their patients.
