Major GRS studies performed for T2D incidence prediction

Author, year (ref. no.) SNP in GRS Cohort(s) Follow-up period (years) Incident T2D cases, n (%) GRS improvement Significant improvement in AROC/C-statistic Improvement in NRI for FORS
Meigs, 2008 (8) 18 FOS 28 225 (9.5) Yes: per SD P < 0.001 C-statistic = 0.534 for FORS, 0.581 for FORS + GRS
(P = 0.001) Yes: up to 4%
Lyssenko, 2008 (9) 16 MPP and Botnia Study 23.5 (median) 2,201 (11.7) Yes Modest increase (0.74–0.75, 
P = 1.0 × 10−4) Yes: 9% in MPP 
(P = 2.5 × 10−5) and 20% in Botnia (P = 0.05)
Talmud, 2010 (18) 20 Whitehall II 10 302 (5.5) Yes No No
de Miguel-Yanes, 2011 (10) 40 FOS 34 446 (12.8) Yes: in <50-year-olds only (P = 0.02) No: C-statistic increase from 0.908 to 0.911 (P = 0.3) Yes: 10.2% (P < 0.001)
Vassy, 2014 (11) 62 FOS 25.6 446 (12.8) Yes C-statistic improved in FOS (P < 0.001) but not in CARDIA Weak increase
62 CARDIA 24.2 97 (5.9)
Talmud, 2015 (12) 65 UCLEB 10 (median) 804 (6.0) Yes: from 30.7 (FORS only) to 37.3% (10% FPR) Modest increase Yes: (8.1%), P = 3.3 × 10–7
