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.

Prediction of incident atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with polygenic risk of metabolic disease: Analysis of 3 prospective cohort studies in Korea.

TL;DR: In this article , a grid search of combinations of metabolic risk scores was conducted to identify the most optimal weighted score for incident ASCVD (PRSMetS-ASCVD), which was validated in an independent prospective cohort (n = 4333).

Assessing agreement between different polygenic risk scores in the UK Biobank

TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared two recently published polygenic risk scores for each of three conditions, breast cancer, hypertension and dementia, to assess the stability of running these algorithms for risk prediction in a single large population, using imputed genotyping data from the UK Biobank (UKB) prospective cohort, limited to the White British subset.

Polygenic risk score improves the accuracy of a clinical risk score for coronary artery disease

TL;DR: In this paper , an observation study of 291,305 unrelated White British UK Biobank participants enrolled from 2006 to 2010 was conducted to examine whether an integrated polygenic risk score improves the prediction of coronary artery disease beyond pooled cohort equations.

Ethical layering in AI-driven polygenic risk scores—New complexities, new challenges

TL;DR: In this paper , a comprehensive review of the existing literature on polygenic risk score applications in the clinical setting is presented, and the authors strongly advocate taking a proactive approach to embedding ethics in research and implementation processes for polygen risk scores driven by artificial intelligence.

New Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Techniques for Primary Prevention: JACC Review Topic of the Week.

TL;DR: In this article , a multidimensional approach to risk prediction holds the promise of precise risk prediction, which could allow for targeted prevention minimizing unnecessary costs and risks while maximizing benefits, and high-risk individuals could also be identified early in life.

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.
