Predictive value of GRSs in Afro-Caribbeans after adjustment with TCRFs

Multivariate logistic regression for CHD (N = 537)
OR 95% CI P value
NW_GRS19 1.40 (1.09-1.80) 8 × 10−3
W_GRS19 1.20 (0.94-1.53) 0.14
NW_GRS14 1.43 (1.12-1.83) 4 × 10−3
W_GRS14 1.25 (0.99-1.59) 0.06

ORs are expressed per 1 standard deviation change and were calculated from model incorporating each GRS, age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking.

CI, confidence interval; GRS, genetic risk score; NW, nonweighted; OR, odds ratio; TCRFs, traditional cardiovascular risk factors; W, weighted.
