Predictive genetic testing for the identification of high-risk groups: a simulation study on the impact of predictive ability

BACKGROUND: Genetic risk models could potentially be useful in identifying high-risk groups for the prevention of complex diseases. We investigated the performance of this risk stratification strategy by examining epidemiological parameters that impact the predictive ability of risk models. METHODS:...
