|---|---|---|---|---|
| PRS | Other covariates | |||
| Beta, cm | ||||
| Height | PRS-CD | - | −1.57 (0.56) | 5.00E-03 |
| Height | PRS-CD | CD | −1.28 (0.62) | 3.87E-02 |
| Height | PRS-height | - | 3.67 (0.61) | 4.28E-09 |
| Height | PRS-height | CD | 3.54 (0.62) | 1.89E-08 |
| OR (95%CI) | ||||
| CD | PRS-CD | - | 4.69 (3.31–6.65) | 4.01E-18 |
| CD | PRS-CD | Height | 4.62 (3.26–6.56) | 9.68E-18 |
| CD | PRS-height | - | 0.62 (0.46–0.82) | 1.00E-03 |
| CD | PRS-height | Height | 0.65 (0.48–0.88) | 5.00E-03 |
PRS, polygenic risk score; PRS-CD PRS for Crohn’s Disease (CD); PRS-height, PRS for body height, both computed at the genome-wide association studies’ p-value threshold of p<1E-3. OR, odds ratio; 95%CI, 95% confidence interval. Beta and OR represent changes per interquartile increase in PRS.
