Abstract excerpt
This study explored the association between 19 peripheral artery disease (PAD)-associated variants and PAD severity. We classified PAD cases into 4 groups with increasing levels of severity based on age of PAD diagnosis and surgical status. Genetic association analysis for PAD severity and markers was conducted using REGENIE, and a 19-variant polygenic risk score (PRS) was developed to further evaluate the...
