Genetic Risk Scores for Complex Disease Traits in Youth [PDF]
Background: For most disease-related traits the magnitude of the contribution of genetic factors in adolescents remains unclear. Methods: Twenty continuous traits related to anthropometry, cardiovascular and renal function, metabolism, and inflammation were selected from the ongoing

Combined accelerometer and genetic analysis to differentiate essential tremor from Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are among the most common adult-onset tremor disorders. Clinical and pathological studies suggest that misdiagnosis of PD for ET, and vice versa, occur in anywhere from 15% to 35% of cases.

Genetic Risk Scores for the Clinical Rheumatologist
Background/Historical Perspective The advent of genome-wide sequencing and large-scale genetic epidemiological studies has led to numerous opportunities for the application of genetics in clinical medicine. Leveraging this information toward the formation of clinically useful tools has been an ongoing research goal in this area.

Genetic Risk Scores and Missing Heritability in Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancers are curable by surgical resection when discovered early. Unfortunately, most ovarian cancers are diagnosed in the later stages. One strategy to identify early ovarian tumors is to screen women who have the highest risk. This opinion article summarizes the accuracy of different methods used to assess the risk of developing ovarian cancer,
