PICOTEES:a privacy-preserving online service of phenotype exploration for genetic-diagnostic variants from Chinese children cohorts

The growth in biomedical data resources has raised potential privacy concerns and risks of genetic infor-mation leakage.For instance,exome sequencing aids clinical decisions by comparing data through web services,but it requires significant trust between users and providers.To alleviate privacy concems,the most commonly used strategy is to anonymize sensitive data.Unfortunately,studies have shown that anonym-ization is insufficient to protect against reidentification attacks.Recently,privacy-preserving technologies have been applied to preserve application utility while protecting the privacy of biomedical data.We present the PICOTEES framework,a privacy-preserving online service of phenotype exploration for genetic-diagnostic variants(https://birthdefectlab.cn:3000/).PICOTEES enables privacy-preserving queries of the phenotype spectrum for a single variant by utilizing trusted execution environment technology,which can protect the privacy of the user's query information,backend models,and data,as well as the final results.We demon-strate the utility and performance of PICOTEES by exploring a bioinformatics dataset.The dataset is from a cohort containing 20,909 genetic testing patients with 3,152,508 variants from the Children's Hospital of Fudan University in China,dominated by the Chinese Han population(>99.9%).Our query results yield a large number of unreported diagnostic variants and previously reported pathogenicity.
