Influence of polygenic risk on height and BMI in adults with a 22q11.2 microdeletion

2024-09-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Adult height and body mass index (BMI) are highly heritable traits that can be influenced by both common variants, captured collectively in a polygenic risk score (PRS), and by rare variants of large effect. In this study, we aimed to investigate the modifying effect of PRSs for height and BMI in individuals where there is a baseline increased risk for short stature (<3rd per...
