Predictive capabilities of polygenic scores in an East-Asian population-based cohort: the Singapore Chinese health study.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Polygenic scores (PGS) are derived primarily from European population studies. It is unclear how these perform in risk predictions among East-Asians. We generated 2173 PGSs from 519 traits and assessed their associations with 58 baseline phenotypes in the Singapore Chinese Health Study, a prospective cohort of 23,622 Chinese adults residing in Singapore. PGS performances were evaluated through explained variance (r²) and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) in linear and logistic regression models, respectively. Traits with higher heritability exhibited stronger PGS associations, while behavioural traits, like sleep duration, showed weaker associations. Height and type 2 diabetes (T2D) exhibited largest SNP-based heritability with the largest increments in explained variance and AUC. We explored the effect of T2D risk factors on the association between the T2D PGS (PGS003444) and incident T2D. PGS associations were significantly mediated and modified by hypertension (P
