The InSiGHT database: utilizing 100 years of insights into Lynch Syndrome

TL;DR: A historical overview of the InSiGHT database is provided, a comprehensive repository of gene variant and disease phenotype information, serving as a starting point for important endeavours including variant interpretation, research, diagnostics and enhanced global collection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide Modeling of Polygenic Risk Score in Colorectal Cancer Risk.

Minta Thomas, +102 more
TL;DR: Different approaches to generating predictive polygenic risk scores (PRS) from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are derived and compared, and the developed PRS offers a way for risk-stratified CRC screening and other targeted interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical activity and risks of breast and colorectal cancer : a Mendelian randomisation analysis

Nikos Papadimitriou, +102 more
TL;DR: Two-sample Mendelian randomisation analyses using summary genetic data from the UK Biobank and GWA consortia found that a one standard deviation increment in average acceleration was associated with lower risks of breast cancer and colorectal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pressurized Sample Infusion for the Continuous Analysis of Air- And Moisture-Sensitive Reactions Using Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

TL;DR: In this article, a simple PSI system for electrospray ionization mass spectrometry using a Schlenk flask is presented, which allows straightforward one-off analyses as well as continuous reaction monitoring at any temperature up to the boiling point of the solvent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of Lynch Syndrome in Consecutive Patients With Colorectal Cancer

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of MMRpredict, PREMM(1,2), MMRpro, and MMRpro on colorectal cancer patients from the general population.
