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.

PSS000892 Body mass index (BMI) measurements were standardized with weight measured to the nearest half kilogram with the participants wearing light clothes and no shoes, and height was measured to the nearest centimeter. BMI was calculated using the formula weight in kilograms per meter squared. As defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), the authors rrefer to overweight as having BMI greater than or equal to 25 and obesity as having BMI greater than or equal to 30. Severe obesity was defined as having BMI greater than or equal to 35.
