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.

PSS001007 Cases were individuals with latent classes of allergic diseases (LCADs). LCADs includes atopic march (defined as having a high probability of eczema from infancy to age 11 years with increased probability of wheeze overtime. For rhinitis, the probability increases from zero at age 1 year to almost 100% by 8 years. Eczema developed first, followed by wheeze, and then rhinitis) , persistent eczema and wheeze (defined as having a similar probability of wheeze and eczema throughout childhood, likely as co-morbidities, with a low probability of rhinitis throughout childhood), persistent eczema with late‐onset rhinitis (defined as having increased eczema prevalence from ~70% in early life to 95% at age 5 years, with little resolution at 11 years. The probability of rhinitis increases to almost 100% by age 8 years with low probability of wheeze throughout childhood), persistent wheeze with late‐onset rhinitis (definned as having a high probability of wheeze throughout childhood, with increasing probability of rhinitis to almost 100% by age 11 years. Probability of eczema being low, declining steadily at age 11 years), transient wheeze (defined as having a high probability of wheeze within the first 5 years, with remission by age 8 years, and a very low probability of eczema and rhinitis throughout childhood), eczema only (defined as having a high probability of eczema throughout life, peaking at ~80% at age 5 years, then declining steadily to a 50% probability at age 11 years) and rhinitis only (defined as having an increasing probability of rhinitis from age 5 to 11 years, but no wheeze or eczema). Of the 575 cases, 230 had atopic march, 227 had persistent eczema and wheeze, 380 had persistent eczema with late-onset rhinitis, 429 had persistent wheeze with late-onset rhinitis, 599 had transient wheeze, 1089 had eczema only and 791 had rhinitis only.
