Predicting thoracic aortic dissection in a diverse biobank using a polygenic risk score
2024-09-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Thoracic aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition that often occurs in the presence of aortic dilation. Despite a known association between ascending aortic diameter (AscAoD) and dissection risk, predicting dissection risk remains challenging. <h4>Objectives</h4> Determine whether common variant genetics can be used to improve identification of individuals most at risk for dissection....
