Phenome- and laboratory-wide meta-analyses of sickle cell trait reveal multi-system disease associations

Sickle cell trait (SCT) is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for adverse health outcomes. We utilized three large US electronic health record-based biobanks (Vanderbilt University Medical Center’s BioVU, Penn Medicine Biobank, and All of Us) to conduct phenome-wide association (PheWAS) and clinical laboratory-wi...

Inherited predisposition to increased systemic inflammation predicts a broad class of disease phenotypes

Summary Chronic, low-grade systemic inflammation is a polygenic trait captured with the INFLA-score, a composite of C-reactive protein, platelet count, leukocyte count, and granulocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio. We derived a polygenic risk score from the INFLA-score (iPRS) in a multi-ancestry population from the UK Biobank (...

Practical considerations for social determinant-based disease prediction in the All of Us research program

It is shown that requiring sufficient individual-level SDoH survey data results in significant selection bias and sample reduction in AoU, and that area-level SDoH metrics contribute to disease prediction independently of individual-level measures.

Stress-Related Methylation Risk Scores Predict Coronary Heart Disease

This study supports methylation risk scores as novel biomarkers of stress-related CHD and uncovers epigenetic regulation in monocytes as a potential underlying mechanism of stress-related CHD, highlighting biological pathways linking stress and disease and may promote personalized interventions in high-risk populations...
