Mashup Score: 55A message to our participants: unfounded claims in The Guardian - 1 month(s) ago
This is a message for our participants about a highly misleading and irresponsible article that has been published in The Guardian, and claims that a far-right network has had access to UK Biobank data.

Mashup Score: 18Population Performance and Individual Agreement of Coronary Artery Disease Polygenic Risk Scores - 4 month(s) ago
Importance: Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for coronary artery disease (CAD) are a growing clinical and commercial reality. Whether existing scores provide similar individual-level assessments of disease liability is a critical consideration for clinical implementation that remains uncharacterized. Objective: Characterize the reliability of CAD PRSs that perform equivalently at the population level at predicting individual-level risk. Design: Cross-sectional Study. Setting: All of Us Research Program (AOU), Penn Medicine Biobank (PMBB), and UCLA ATLAS Precision Health Biobank. Participants: Volunteers of diverse genetic backgrounds enrolled in AOU, PMBB, and UCLA with available electronic health record and genotyping data. Exposures: Polygenic risk for CAD from previously published PRSs and new PRSs developed separately from the testing cohorts. Main Outcomes and Measures: Sets of CAD PRSs that perform population prediction equivalently were identified by comparing calibration and discri

Mashup Score: 4Instability of high polygenic risk classification and mitigation by integrative scoring - 4 month(s) ago
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) continue to improve with novel methods and expanding genome-wide association studies. Healthcare and third-party laboratories are increasingly deploying PRS reports to patients. Although new PRS show improving strengths of association with traits, it is unknown how the classification of high polygenic risk changes across individual PRS for the same trait. Here, we determined classification of high genetic risk from all cataloged PRS for three complex traits. While each PRS for each trait demonstrated generally consistent population-level strengths of associations, classification of individuals in the top 10% of each PRS distribution varied widely. Using the PRSMix framework, which incorporates information across several PRS to improve prediction, we generated sequential add-one-in (AOI) PRSMix_AOI scores based on order of publication. PRSMix_AOIₙ led to improved PRS performance and more consistent high-risk classification compared with the PRSₙ. The PRSMix
