Comparison of polygenic risk scores for coronary artery disease highlights obstacles to overcome for clinical use

2020-08-10

Abstract excerpt

Polygenic risk scores, or PRS, are a tool to estimate individuals’ liabilities to a disease or trait measurement based solely on genetic information. One commonly discussed potential use is in the clinic to identify people who are at greater risk of developing a disease.
