Competing Interests
The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts. Nicholas J. Marini and Jasper Rine are founders of VitaPath Genetics, and Jasper Rine is a member of its scientific advisory board. Edward J. Lammer and John S. Witte are consultants for VitaPath Genetics.
