Genomic Risk Prediction of Coronary Artery Disease in 480,000 Adults: Implications for Primary Prevention.

TLDR
The genomic score developed and evaluated here substantially advances the concept of using genomic information to stratify individuals with different trajectories of CAD risk and highlights the potential for genomic screening in early life to complement conventional risk prediction.

Clinical Implementation of Combined Monogenic and Polygenic Risk Disclosure for Coronary Artery Disease

TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe a combined monogenic and polygenic risk assessment program and examine its impact on patient understanding and changes to clinical management, including statin initiation, statin intensification, or coronary imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk Stratification and Clinical Utility of Polygenic Risk Scores in Ophthalmology.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the clinical utility of combining large numbers of these genetic variants into polygenic risk scores (PRS) has shown clinically meaningful risk prediction across several common diseases including primary open angle glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and myopia.

Non-parametric polygenic risk prediction using partitioned GWAS summary statistics

TL;DR: This work proposes a novel partitioning-based risk prediction model to achieve non-parametric shrinkage that does not require explicitly modeling the genetic architecture and considerably outperforms a state-of-the-art method across wide range of genetic architecture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Machine learning optimized polygenic scores for blood cell traits identify sex-specific trajectories and genetic correlations with disease

TL;DR: In this article , the relative performance of 6 methods to develop PGS for 26 blood cell traits, including a standard method of pruning and thresholding (P + T) and 5 learning methods: LDpred2, elastic net (EN), Bayesian ridge (BR), multilayer perceptron (MLP), and convolutional neural network (CNN).
Journal ArticleDOI

Polygenic scores for dyslipidemia: the emerging genomic model of plasma lipoprotein trait inheritance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the emerging use of "genome-wide" polygenic scores for plasma lipoproteins to define the etiology of clinical dyslipidemia, modify the severity of monogenic disease, and inform therapeutic options.

A reference panel of 64,976 haplotypes for genotype imputation

Shane A. McCarthy, +117 more
- 22 Aug 2016 - 
TL;DR: A reference panel of 64,976 human haplotypes at 39,235,157 SNPs constructed using whole-genome sequence data from 20 studies of predominantly European ancestry leads to accurate genotype imputation at minor allele frequencies as low as 0.1% and a large increase in the number of SNPs tested in association studies.

Comparison of Sociodemographic and Health-Related Characteristics of UK Biobank Participants With Those of the General Population.

TL;DR: UK Biobank is not representative of the sampling population; there is evidence of a “healthy volunteer” selection bias; valid assessment of exposure-disease relationships may be widely generalizable and does not require participants to be Representative of the population at large.

TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of coronary artery disease (CAD) cases and controls, interrogating 6.7 million common (minor allele frequency (MAF) > 0.05) and 2.7 millions low-frequency (0.005 < MAF < 0.5) variants.
