Economic Evaluation of a New Polygenic Risk Score to Predict Nephropathy in Adult Patients With Type 2 Diabetes.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The current screening method for diabetic nephropathy (DN) is based on detection of albumin in the urine and decline of glomerular filtration rate. The latter usually occurs relatively late in the course of the disease. A polygenic risk score (PRS) was recently developed for early prediction of the risk for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) to develop DN. The aim of this study was to assess the...
