a

Age-as-time-scale Cox regression models separate for each racial and ethnic group adjusted for sex, eMERGE site, and first five ancestry-specific principal components.

b

c-indices for base models without PRSs across racial and ethnic groups: age-as-time-scale Cox model with sex, eMERGE site, and first five ancestry-specific principal components.

c

c-indices for base model + PRSs for each racial and ethnic group.

d

Age-as-time-scale Cox regression models on the joint cohort adjusted for sex, eMERGE site, design matrix of first five ancestry-specific principal components, racial and ethnic group, and an interaction term with PRSs. ref, referent.
