Study discovers new measures to predict risk of bowel diseases ANI | Updated: Dec 27, 2020 23:01 IST
Washington [US], December 27 (ANI): Mount Sinai researchers claim to have discovered new measures to predict risk for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including Crohn s disease and ulcerative colitis.
The study published in the research journal Gastroenterology shows that the polygenic risk scores, built using association data from multiple populations in Mount Sinai s multi-ethnic BioMe Biobank, maximized IBD predictions for every population in the biobank.
BioMe is a system-wide effort at Mount Sinai that is revolutionizing diagnosis and classification of diseases according to the patient s molecular profile.
The study showed that risk scores calculated from integrating data significantly improved predictions among individuals with European, Ashkenazi Jewish, and Hispanic ancestry in BioMe, as well as European individuals in the UK Bioban
