Polygenic score for physical activity provides odds for multiple common diseases

2021-02-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Purpose</h4> It has been suggested that genetic pleiotropy, in which the same genes affect two or more traits, may partially explain the frequently observed associations between high physical activity (PA) and later reduced morbidity or mortality. However, the evidence about pleiotropy from human studies is limited. This study investigated associations between PA polygenic risk scores (PRSs)...
