Need to distinguish between ClinVar annotations #122

Closed dgmacarthur closed 9 years ago

dgmacarthur commented 9 years ago

Simply knowing a variant is in ClinVar isn't especially useful as many are marked as benign or likely benign.

I suggest we only flag ClinVar variants marked as pathogenic or likely pathogenic. Alternatively we could use a color scheme:

green = benign or likely benign yellow = variant of uncertain significance red = pathogenic or likely pathogenic

if a variant is both benign and pathogenic we can flash between the colors... just need help choosing the speed.

fixed the colors as suggested except "uncertain significance" is just bold gray, and "risk factor" is orange.
