Harnessing the power of polygenic risk scores to predict type 2 diabetes and its subtypes in a high-risk population of British Pakistanis and Bangladeshis in a routine healthcare setting

Abstract: Background: Type 2 diabetes is a heterogeneous condition highly prevalent in British Pakistanis and Bangladeshis (BPB). The Genes & Health (G&H) cohort offers means to explore genetic determinants of disease in BPBs, combining genetic and lifelong health record data. Methods: We assessed whether common genetic loci associated with type 2 diabetes in European-ancestry individuals (EUR) replicate in G&H. We constructed a type 2 diabetes polygenic risk score (PRS) and combined it with a clinical ris… Show more
