Polygenic Risk Scores for Cardiovascular Disease Predict Risk Factor Control and Residual Cardiovascular Risk in Stroke Survivors
2026-08-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Stroke remains a leading cause of mortality and long-term disability worldwide, with high residual vascular risk among survivors despite optimal secondary prevention. The contribution of inherited polygenic risk to this residual vulnerability remains unclear. <h4>Methods</h4> We analyzed 2,701 stroke survivors (mean age 59.8±7.1 years, 61.7% male) from the UK Biobank. Stroke- and coronary art...
