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.

PSS001060 Serum concentrations of alanine transaminase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP), were measured from stored blood samples using the enzymatic rate analytical method on a Beckman Coulter AU5800. The manufacturer’s analytic range for ALT was 3–500 U/L, for ALP, 5–1500 U/L, and it was 5–1200 U/L for GGT. — 331 individuals — European — Airwave —
