Zusammenfassung: | A method for determining a subject's risk for developing chronic kidney disease (CKD) combined with determining a subject's pharmacogenomic (PGX) profile is described. The method involves obtaining a sample of genetic material from the subject. The genetic material is amplified using primers specific for the genes underlying CKD and PGX. The DNA sequence of the amplified genetic material is determined and compared with the human reference genome sequence. One or more DNA sequence alterations in the amplified genetic material not present in the human reference genome sequence determines the PGX profile of the subject and may indicate that the subject is at risk for developing CKD. |
