Integrative analysis of the plasma proteome and polygenic risk of cardiometabolic diseases
Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) capture the polygenic architecture of common diseases by aggregating genome-wide genetic variation into a single score that reflects individual’s disease risk, affording a new opportunity to identify downstream molecular pathways involved in disease pathogenesis. We performed an integrative analysis to characterise associations of PRSs of five cardiometabolic diseases…
