Objective: The major objective of the study was to sequence the whole genome of four Bangladeshi individuals and identify variants that are known to be associated with functional changes or disease states. We also carried out an ontology analysis to identify the functions and pathways most likely to be affected by these variants.
Results: We identified around 900,000 common variants and close to 5 million unique ones in all four of the individuals.
Background: Worldwide, breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in female, in Bangladesh breast cancer is the second leading cancer in both sexes, and in women it occupied the top position. Highly penetrant mutations in BRCA1 gene constitute high risk of breast cancer. The spectrum of BRCA1 gene mutations varies in different population.

- The manuscript outlines the CHAMPS network's method for evaluating minimally invasive tissue sampling (MITS) specimens, focusing on histopathologic examination, special staining, and molecular testing.
- It details the development of standardized histopathology algorithms to facilitate accurate diagnoses from MITS, utilizing telepathology and digital imaging for collaboration between the CHAMPS Central Pathology Laboratory and various surveillance locations.
- The guidelines and lessons learned from initial implementation aim to improve diagnostic consistency and enable effective real-time consultations among pathologists involved in the CHAMPS initiative.
