Twelve Variants Polygenic Score for Low‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Distribution in a Large Cohort of Patients With Clinically Diagnosed Familial Hypercholesterolemia With or Without Causative Mutations

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background A significant proportion of individuals clinically diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), but without any disease‐causing mutation, are likely to have polygenic hypercholesterolemia.

Polygenic Risk Scores for Subtyping of Schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesSchizophrenia Research and Treatment, 2020
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).

Design and user experience testing of a polygenic score report: a qualitative study of prospective users

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background Polygenic scores—which quantify inherited risk by integrating information from many common sites of DNA variation—may enable a tailored approach to clinical medicine. However, alongside considerable enthusiasm, we and others have highlighted a

Construction and Application of Polygenic Risk Scores in Autoimmune Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of genetic variants associated with autoimmune diseases and provided unique mechanistic insights and informed novel treatments.

Polygenic risk score: use in migraine research

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2018
Background The latest Genome-Wide Association Study identified 38 genetic variants associated with migraine. In this type of studies the significance level is very difficult to achieve (5 × 10− 8) due to multiple testing.

Polygenic risk scores

open access: yesSeminars in Arthritis and Rheumatism
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) estimate an individual's genetic risk for a disease or trait compared to a matched population. For many rheumatic diseases PRS have been developed that have discriminatory capacity better than some widely used biomarkers, and in some cases are the most discriminatory tests available.

A multi-ethnic polygenic risk score is associated with hypertension prevalence and progression throughout adulthood

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Polygenic risk scores have potential to predict an individual’s risk of disease based on genetic markers. Here, the authors develop a polygenic risk score for hypertension and test it in a multi-ethnic cohort, finding that the score is associated with ...

Polygenic transcriptome risk scores (PTRS) can improve portability of polygenic risk scores across ancestries [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
Abstract Background Polygenic risk scores (PRS) are valuable to translate the results of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) into clinical practice. To date, most GWAS have been based on individuals of European-ancestry leading to poor performance in populations of non-European ancestry.

Polygenic Risk Scores Expand to Obesity [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2019
Obesity is one of the most serious health challenges of our time. In this issue of Cell, Khera and co-authors demonstrate the striking ability of genetics, in the form of a polygenic risk score, to identify those individuals at high risk for obesity.

NAFLD‐related hepatocellular carcinoma: The growing challenge

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Risk and protective factors for NAFLD‐related hepatocellular carcinoma Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common cause of cancer‐related mortality and morbidity worldwide. With the obesity pandemic, NAFLD‐related HCC is contributing to the burden of disease exponentially.
