Abstract
This is a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the uptake of cascade genetic testing for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. Among 30 studies included for meta-analysis, the uptake of cascade genetic testing was 33% (95% CI 25%-42%), with higher uptake rates among females compared with male relatives, and among first-degree compared with second-degree relatives. These findings indicate suboptimal uptake of cascade genetic testing among people at risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, representing a missed opportunity for cancer prevention and early detection. There is a need for interventions to improve uptake rates.
期刊介绍：
Each issue of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology is a complete symposium on one or two timely topics of interest in obstetrics and gynecology. For each quarterly issue, two prominent guest editors solicit contributions on key clinical topics of interest to practicing physicians. Procedures, current clinical problems, medical and surgical treatments, and effective diagnostic aids are all carefully reviewed in original articles. The result is an instructive resource that dispenses trustworthy clinical guidance that enhances your understanding of key areas of your practice.
