New methods of analysis and novel markers are currently being identified to predict conditions with polygenic inheritance. These include polygenic risk scores (PRS), which are based on the presence of ...

Allelica, a leader in genomic risk assessment for common diseases, announced today that polygenic risk scores (PRS) have been recognized as a risk-enhancing factor in the 2026 American College of ...

A polygenic risk score was able to detect a high proportion of clinically significant prostate cancer. Cancer would not have been detected in 71.8% of patients with the use of PSA or MRI screening.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia associated with increased risk of stroke, heart failure and mortality. Advances in genomic research have revealed a complex genetic architecture ...

An insightful mini-review published in Genomic Psychiatry synthesizes the rapidly expanding landscape of molecular genetic research on common epilepsies, assembling evidence from genome-wide ...

Polygenic scores aim to measure the cumulative effect of multiple genetic variants to make predictions about a person’s health. The most likely areas of potential use are in risk prediction, including ...

Considerable progress has been made in uncovering common single nucleotide variants and developing mechanisms for genomic profiling. Using this knowledge routinely as part of clinical and public ...

Role of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Map-Based First- and High-Order Radiomic Features for the Discrimination of Sacral Chordomas and Chondrosarcomas With Overlapping Conventional Imaging Features ...

Over the past decade, behavioural genetics has made great advancements in predicting human behaviour using DNA. By combining millions of genetic variants into polygenic scores (PGS), researchers can ...

Genetic variants associated with mental disorders do not have a significant influence on methylphenidate response in ADHD cohorts.
