• An early-onset specific polygenic risk score optimizes age-based risk estimate and stratification of prostate cancer: population-based cohort study - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38632662

  ABSTRACT: Background Early-onset prostate cancer (EOPC, ≤ 55 years) has a unique clinical entity harboring high genetic risk, but the majority of EOPC patients still substantial opportunity to be early-detected thus suffering an unfavorable prognosis. A refined understanding of age-based polygenic risk score (PRS) for prostate cancer (PCa) would be essential for personalized risk stratification. Methods We included 167,517 male participants [4882 cases including 205 EOPC and 4677 late-onset PCa (LOPC)] from UK Biobank. A General-, an EOPC- and an LOPC-PRS were derived from age-specific genome-wide association studies. Weighted Cox proportional hazard models were applied to estimate the risk of PCa associated with PRSs. The discriminatory capability of PRSs were validated using time-de

• Genome-wide association study identifies novel variants in olfactory, vitamin A, vitamin B, and cadherin pathways associated with learning and memory - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41413636

  ABSTRACT: Learning and memory, as fundamental components of human cognition, are heritable traits that are highly variable between individuals and within populations. Investigation into the genetic basis of cognition is a prominent area of research, with genetic associations being previously reported for a wide range of cognitive phenotypes. Here we utilise a genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach to evaluate the contribution of genetic variation to learning and memory phenotypes in a comprehensively phenotyped, well-characterised, healthy, and unrelated cohort of individuals (n = 613). Cognitive phenotypes were assessed using nine comprehensive test batteries consisting of twenty-one cognitive performance assessments including IQ, five measures for visual and verbal learning, a
