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.

PSS001103 All individuals had type 2 diabetes (T2D). Diabetes was defined as individuals having either of following criteria: 1) self-reported type 2 or unspecified diabetes (codes 1220 and 1223 in data-field 20002); 2) ICD10 diagnoses codes E11 and E14 (data-field 41270); 3) insulin treatment or use of oral glucose lowering drugs (data-fields 6153, 6177 and 20003); 4) serum glucose level ≥11.1 mmol/L (200mg/dL); 5) HbA1c ≥ 48 mmol/mol (6.5%). Cases were individuals with hepatocellular cancer (HCC). HCC was defined by combining International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) code C22.0 from both UK cancer registry (data-field 40006), and hospitalization records (data-field 41270).

Of the 1,473 individuals with FLD, 297 had severe fibrosis and were therefore classified as being within stage 3-4 of FLD. Severe fibrosis was defined in the presence of histological fibrosis F3-F4 (when liver biopsy was available) or in presence of clinical, endoscopic or radiological signs of portal hypertension or cirrhosis, or liver stiffness ≥8.4 kPa evaluated by Fibroscan. Diagnosis of HCC was based on EASL-EORTC Clinical Practice Guidelines.
