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.

PSS000011 The main outcome of interest was incident CHD event before age 75y. We used the definition of CHD as employed by the Framingham study, namely, one of • MI recognized, with diagnostic ECG (FHS event code #1) • MI recognized, without diagnostic ECG, with enzymes and history (#2) • MI recognized, without diagnostic ECG, with autopsy evidence (new event) (#3) • MI unrecognized, silent (#4) • MI unrecognized, not silent (#5) • Angina pectoris (AP), first episode only (#6) • Coronary insufficiency (CI), definite by both history and ECG (#7) • Questionable MI at exam 1 (#8) • Acute MI by autopsy, previously coded as 1 or 2 (#9) • Death, CHD sudden, with 1 hour (#21) • Death, CHD 1–23 hours, non sudden (#22) • Death, CHD 24-47 hours, non sudden (#23) • Death, CHD, 48 hours or more, non sudden (#24)

PSS000012 Coronary heart disease (CHD) was defined as falling into any of the following categories: • I21 or I22 (ICD-10) / 410 (ICD-8/9) as the direct or as a contributing cause of death or I20-I25 (ICD-10) /410-414 (ICD-9) as the underlying cause of death • I21 or I22 (ICD-10) / 410 (ICD-8/9) as the main or secondary diagnosis at hospital discharge. • Coronary bypass surgery or coronary angioplasty at hospital discharge or identified from the Finnish registry of invasive cardiac procedures.
