Polygenic risk scores (PRS) based on the initially reported effect sizes for osteoarthritis (OA) in 826,690 participants across 13 cohorts worldwide in 10 different OA phenotypes by the Genetics of OA (GO) consortium meta‐analysis.

PRS based on the secondary reported effect sizes for only hip OA and knee OA after excluding the Rotterdam Study from the meta‐analysis by the GO consortium.
