Polygenic component associated with HCM risk, offering prediction tool

Rare and common genetic variants contribute substantially to susceptibility to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in the general population and can help improve risk prediction beyond clinical factors, researchers reported.In an analysis of genetic data from two large biobanks, researchers found that high polygenic risk, defined as the top quintile of the polygenetic risk score distribution, accounted
