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.

Capturing additional genetic risk from family history for improved polygenic risk prediction

TL;DR: In this paper , a latent factor model was developed to quantify trait heritability in excess of that captured by a common variant-based polygenic risk score, but inferable from family history.

Panomics: New Databases for Advancing Cardiology

TL;DR: This paper identified 104 omic databases, of which 72 met the inclusion criteria: genomic and clinical measurements on a subset of the database population plus one or more omic datasets, 65 were methylomic, 59 transcriptomic, 41 proteomic, 42 metabolomic, and 22 microbiomic databases.

The Role of Genetics in Cardiovascular Risk Reduction: Findings From a Single Lipid Clinic and Review of the Literature.

TL;DR: The majority of patients presenting to a single lipid clinic were found to have at least one variant associated with abnormal lipoprotein metabolism or CAD and incorporation of genetic information, including the use of genetic risk scores, is anticipated in the future care of lipid disorders and CVD prevention.

The ‘ALSPAC in London’ dataset: adiposity, cardiometabolic risk profiles, and the emerging arterial phenotype in young adulthood

TL;DR: This data note documents the extensive range of genotypic and phenotypic data available from a London-based sub-study of the long-running Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children—the ‘ALSPAC in London’ Study—in which extensive adipose and cardiovascular phenotyping was carried out in participants recruited based on a genetic predisposition to obesity.

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.
