Construction and Application of Polygenic Risk Scores in Autoimmune Diseases
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of genetic variants associated with autoimmune diseases and provided unique mechanistic insights and informed novel treatments.

A polygenic risk score predicts atrial fibrillation in cardiovascular disease.
AIMS Interest in targeted screening programmes for atrial fibrillation (AF) has increased, yet the role of genetics in identifying patients at highest risk of developing AF is unclear.

Polygenic risk scores in epilepsy
Abstract An epilepsy diagnosis has large consequences for an individual but is often difficult to make in clinical practice. Novel biomarkers are thus greatly needed. Here, we give an overview of how thousands of common genetic factors that increase the risk for epilepsy can be summarized as epilepsy polygenic risk scores (PRS).

Polygenic Risk Score in Africa Population: Progress and challenges [PDF]
Polygenic risk score (PRS) analysis is a powerful method been used to estimate an individual's genetic risk towards targeted traits. PRS analysis could be used to obtain evidence of a genetic effect beyond Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) results i.e. when there are no significant markers.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and related phenotypes: polygenic risk scores in population-based and case-control cohorts [PDF]
Background Genetic factors influence chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) risk, but the individual variants that have been identified have small effects.

Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force established the TASK3 working groups to create common data elements (CDEs) for various preclinical epilepsy research disciplines. The aim of the CDEs is to improve the standardization of experimental designs across a range of epilepsy ...

Physical activity, polygenic risk score, and colorectal cancer risk
Introduction Whether and to what extent the relationship between physical activity (PA) and colorectal cancer (CRC) differs according to CRC‐related genetic risk remains to be determined, and no studies to date have quantified how much genetically ...

Pharmacogenomics polygenic risk score for drug response prediction using PRS-PGx methods
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have been successfully developed for the prediction of human diseases and complex traits in the past years. For drug response prediction in randomized clinical trials, a common practice is to apply PRS built from a disease ...

Abstract Rodent models of epilepsy remain the cornerstone of research into the mechanisms underlying genetic epilepsy. Reproducibility of experiments using these rodent models, occurring across a diversity of laboratories and commercial vendors, remains an issue impacting the cost‐effectiveness and scientific rigor of the studies performed.
