Reproduced from Schumacher et al. Estimation of PrCa risk by PRS using 147 risk SNPs. Men categorised into PRS percentiles based on the cumulative score distributed among controls
| Risk category percentile | Relative risk | 95% CI |
|---|---|---|
| < 1 | 0.15 | 0.11–0.2 |
| 1–10 | 0.35 | 0.32–0.37 |
| 10–25 | 0.54 | 0.51–0.57 |
| 25–75 | 1 (Baseline) | |
| 75–90 | 1.74 | 1.67–1.82 |
| 90–99 | 2.69 | 2.55–2.82 |
| ≥ 99 | 5.71 | 5.04–6.48 |
Men in with a PRS in the highest percentile of risk (≥ 99%) have a RR of 5.71 compared to controls [59]
