Abstract
Background and Aims : Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a monogenic disease but can also present as a polygenic disease due to small-effect LDL-C-raising alleles of 12 SNPs from The Global Lipid Genetic Consortium GEWAS study. Here to determine polygenic score in FH patients, assess the utility of 6-SNP polygenic score or 12-SNPs polygenic score in identification of polygenic FH.
