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.

Integration of polygenic risk scores with modifiable risk factors improves risk prediction: results from a pan-cancer analysis

TL;DR: It is estimated that high genetic risk accounts for 4.0% to 30.3% of new cancer cases, which exceeds the impact of many lifestyle-related risk factors, and the utility of PRS for risk stratification.

Pathophysiology and pharmacological management of pulmonary and cardiovascular features of COVID-19.

TL;DR: The epidemiological data from various COVID-19 patient cohorts around the world and the USA as well the associated risk factors are discussed, the pathophysiology of SARS-CoV-2 infection and the underlying molecular mechanisms for the respiratory and cardiovascular manifestations are summarized and the potential treatments and vaccines are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetics of atrial cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: Investigating the genetic basis of primary defects in atrial structure and function, as well as the genetic contributions to cardiac disorders, comorbidities and lifestyle factors that result in secondary atrial remodelling, may provide new risk markers and facilitate personalized interventions for complications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacogenomics polygenic risk score for drug response prediction using PRS-PGx methods

TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed a shift from disease PRS to PGx PRS approaches by simultaneously modeling both the prognostic and predictive effects and further made this shift possible by developing a series of PRS-PGx-Bayes methods, including a novel Bayesian regression approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events From Retinal, Clinical, and Genomic Data in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes: A Population Cohort Study

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used multivariable Cox regression to evaluate the association between retinal vascular parameters and major adverse CV events (MACE) at 10 years compared with the pooled cohort equations (PCE) risk score.

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.

Majid Nikpay, +167 more
- 07 Sep 2015 - 
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.
