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.

PSS007673 Pathogenicity of rare variants in SCN5A identified in included BrS cases was centrally assessed using the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and Association of Molecular Pathology (ACMG/AMP) guidelines, using an adapted version of CardioClassifier incorporating a quantitative approach based on case-control analyses, as performed previously in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy genes, as well as a curated compendium of functional data.
