Quantile-specific heritability of high-density lipoproteins with implications for precision medicine
29 May 2020
Abstract excerpt
Background We have previously shown that the effect of a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) genetic risk score depends on whether the phenotype (HDL cholesterol) is high or low relative to its distribution (quantile-dependent expressivity). Objective Evidence for quantile-dependent expressivity was sought using a more inclusive genetic measure (quantile-specific heritability, h 2 ) in a larger population (Framingham...
