Performance Metrics

Disclaimer: The performance metrics are displayed as reported by the source studies. It is important to note that metrics are not necessarily comparable with each other. For example, metrics depend on the sample characteristics (described by the PGS Catalog Sample Set [PSS] ID), phenotyping, and statistical modelling. Please refer to the source publication for additional guidance on performance.

PSS000412 59 MC4R mutations that had previously been reported to play a role in obesity were included in our analyses (Table S2) All phenotypic data used for analyses were collected at the baseline visit. We provide a brief description here; more details can be found in S1 Text and elsewhere [18–21]. BMI, calculated as weight (kg) divided by height squared (m2), was used to categorize individuals with underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (18.5 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 25 kg/m2), overweight (25 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 30 kg/m2), or obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2).
