Effects of polygenic score on total and cause-specific mortality in the Cox model.

Cause Events # Cens. # Beta SE p-value HR (95% C.I.)
Total 1267 204 −0.057 0.007 2.7E-18 0.94 (0.93; 0.96)
CVD 368 1103 −0.047 0.012 0.0001 0.95 (0.93; 0.98)
Cancer 243 1228 −0.030 0.015 0.041 0.97 (0.94; 0.99)
Other 656 815 −0.071 0.009 1.9E-15 0.93 (0.92; 0.95)

Notes: “Cause” denotes the cause of death (Total—all causes, CVD, cancer, and Other—all other causes or unknown cause); “Events #” shows the number of deaths from specific cause; “Cens. #” indicates the number of censored cases; “Beta” shows the estimate of the regression coefficient for the polygenic score variable in the Cox model; “SE” is a standard error for Beta; “p-value” characterizes the significance of the estimate; “HR” shows the estimate of hazard ratio per one SNP (pro-survival allele), 95% confidence intervals are shown in parentheses.
