The optimism is not unfounded. In specific, well-defined clinical scenarios, polygenic scores are beginning to demonstrate some tangible utility. For cardiovascular disease, MI-GENES, a 10-year follow ...

A new study links telomere length and polygenic risk scores to IPF development, highlighting genetic drivers beyond rare variants. The role of polygenic risk scores in patients with idiopathic ...

Not all cancers are alike, especially when it comes to prostate cancer. “The guidelines recommend they go on active surveillance rather than getting treated. For many of them, it’s really unlikely ...

Polygenic risk scores for IOP and VCDR significantly enhance glaucoma risk prediction, especially for primary open-angle glaucoma. The study utilized data from multiple cohorts, including the Canadian ...

A risk model that combines a mammographic artificial intelligence (AI) risk score with polygenic and clinical risk scores more accurately identifies women at high risk of developing breast cancer than ...

Incorporating a polygenic risk score into prostate cancer screening could enhance the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer that conventional screening may miss, according to results of ...

New genetic research shows a simple genetic test can predict who’s most at risk for obesity, offering hope for early prevention, but also raises tough questions about genetic fairness and healthcare ...
