Conditions

Continuously updated · last reviewed Oct 19, 2026

Each page covers one condition properly: what it actually is and what it feels like, what causes it, how common it really is and in whom, and how it's diagnosed — followed by the specific variants with a replicated link to it, and, where the research supports it, how genetics can change the way a medicine behaves.

Written in two registers so one page serves both readers: plain language first, then a clinical detail section with the precise terminology, effect sizes and diagnostic thresholds. Every claim is sourced from freely-available published research and cited on the page, so you can check us — or hand the page to your doctor. 385 conditions so far, growing continuously, and free to reuse with attribution (CC BY 4.0).

Infection

HIV-1 Viral Control

A small minority of people infected with HIV-1 keep the virus suppressed for years without treatment -- "controllers." A landmark 2010 study found the reason sits almost entirely in how well a person's immune system can show viral fragments to itself.

Questions about conditions on this site

What counts as a "condition" page on this site?

One diagnosed condition or measurable trait covered properly: what it actually is, what causes it, how common it is, how it is diagnosed, and the specific variants with a replicated link to it — every claim sourced from published research.

Does MyGeneLog™ diagnose any of these conditions?

No. Every page here is informational, not a diagnosis. A result should be discussed with a doctor or a licensed genetic counselor, never acted on alone.

Why do some entries say "Trait" instead of a disease category?

Because they are not disorders. Height, ABO blood group and a handful of others describe a measurable characteristic with nothing to diagnose — "Trait" says so plainly instead of implying a disease that is not one.

How is a variant linked to a condition page?

Only after a replicated association in published research, verified against the primary study rather than a gene name or a marketing claim — the same discipline the variant pages themselves follow.
