Ability of a polygenic risk score to refine colorectal cancer risk in Lynch syndrome

2023-04-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have been used to stratify colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in the general population, whereas its role in Lynch syndrome (LS), the most common type of hereditary CRC, is still conflicting.
