Odds of different cardiovascular diseases based on polygenic risk score.

Cardiovascular disease Odds ratio (95% CI)a p-value
Peripheral artery disease 1.44 (1.41, 1.46) 1.81 × 10−113
Coronary artery disease 1.33 (1.32, 1.34) 9.10 × 10−300
Congestive heart failure 1.34 (1.33, 1.36) 7.10 × 10−140
Cerebrovascular disease 1.20 (1.19, 1.22) 2.85 × 10−51

Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) scaled (center PRS −0.07 ± 0.83). Thus, for each 0.83 increase in PRS, the odds of peripheral artery disease or coronary artery disease increase by 44% and 33%, respectively. Odds ratios derived from logistic regression models of each disease, adjusting for age, sex, and first five principal components and using scaled PRS.
