TL;DR: In this article, a genetic risk score was associated with COPD susceptibility (odds ratio per 1 s.d. of the risk score (∼6 alleles) (95% confidence interval) = 1.24 (1.20-1.27), P = 5.05 × 10(-49)), and they observed a 3.7-fold difference in COPD risk between individuals in the highest and lowest GA risk score deciles in UK Biobank.
