Polygenic Risk Scores and Physical Activity [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose Polygenic risk scores (PRS) summarize genome-wide genotype data into a single variable that produces an individual-level risk score for genetic liability. PRS has been used for prediction of chronic diseases and some risk factors. As PRS has been studied less for physical activity (PA), we constructed

Development of risk prediction models for depression combining genetic and early life risk factors
BackgroundBoth genetic and early life risk factors play important roles in the pathogenesis and progression of adult depression. However, the interplay between these risk factors and their added value to risk prediction models have not been fully ...

Prostate cancer risk prediction using a polygenic risk score [PDF]
Hereditary factors have a strong influence on prostate cancer (PC) risk and poorer outcomes, thus stratification by genetic factors addresses a critical need for targeted PC screening and risk-adapted follow-up.

Calculating Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) in UK Biobank: A Practical Guide for Epidemiologists
A polygenic risk score estimates the genetic risk of an individual for some disease or trait, calculated by aggregating the effect of many common variants associated with the condition.

Polygenic risk score improves the accuracy of a clinical risk score for coronary artery disease
Background The value of polygenic risk scores (PRSs) towards improving guideline-recommended clinical risk models for coronary artery disease (CAD) prediction is controversial.

Polygenic Risk Scores for Subtyping of Schizophrenia [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a complex disorder with many comorbid conditions. In this study, we used polygenic risk scores (PRSs) from schizophrenia and comorbid traits to explore consistent cluster structure in schizophrenia patients. With 10 comorbid traits, we found a stable 4-cluster structure in two datasets (MGS and SSCCS).

On cross-ancestry cancer polygenic risk scores [PDF]
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) can provide useful information for personalized risk stratification and disease risk assessment, especially when combined with non-genetic risk factors. However, their construction depends on the availability of summary statistics from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) independent from the target sample.
