Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) improve prediction of the development of type 2 diabetes over the use of clinical risk factors alone; however, they perform poorly in populations of non-European ancestry, limiting their global clinical utility. We aimed to deliver comprehensive and rigorously tested multi-ancestry PRSs for prediction in type 2 diabetes. METHODS: We conducted meta-analyses using data from...
