Risk prediction by genetic risk scores for coronary heart disease is independent of self-reported family history.
(2015) In European Heart Journal- Abstract
- Genetic risk scores (GRSs) have been associated with coronary heart disease (CHD) in large studies. We asked whether expanding an established 27-variant GRS (GRS27) to a 50-variant GRS (GRS50) improved CHD prediction and whether GRSs are independent of self-reported family history of CHD.
