Multi-Trait Polygenic Prediction of Nicotine Dependence Öffentlichkeit

Published
Abstract
The estimated heritability of nicotine dependence (ND) ranges 40-70%, but Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) calculated for ND have limited utility using only tobacco use Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) summary statistics. We examined a multi-trait PRS model using known genetic correlates of ND liability and show incremental gains in accuracy and power.
