Italic values indicate best performing PRS according to the corresponding metrics for MGI or UKB.

a

Effective sample size: 4 / (1/#cases + 1/#controls); n/a: not available; references of studies contributing to GWAS Catalog PRS are listed in Table S4.

b

PRSs were scaled to mean = 0 and SD = 1.

c

Top 1% versus rest.
