Genetic Markers Enhance Coronary Risk Prediction in Men : The MORGAM Prospective Cohorts

Genetic Markers Enhance Coronary Risk Prediction in Men : The MORGAM Prospective Cohorts

Background: More accurate coronary heart disease (CHD) prediction, specifically in middle-aged men, is needed to reduce the burden of disease more effectively. We hypothesised that a multilocus genetic risk score could refine CHD prediction beyond classic risk scores and obtain more precise risk est...
