Even when polygenic risk scores (PRSs) are trained in African ancestral populations, Kamiza and colleagues showed that genetic and environmental variation within sub-Saharan African populations impacts prediction performance, highlighting the challenges of clinical implementation of PRSs for risk assessment.
即使多基因风险评分 (PRSs) 是在非洲祖先群体中进行训练的,Kamiza 及其同事也表明,撒哈拉以南非洲人群内的遗传和环境变异会影响预测性能,突出了 PRSs 在风险评估中的临床实施所面临的挑战。
