Genomics identifies increased levels of undetected risk of heart disease in UK population


18 Sep 2024

Genomics has published groundbreaking research revealing that 8% of the UK's adult population carries a polygenic risk for heart disease equivalent to that of carriers of Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). This polygenic group, previously undetected by the NHS, accounts for a significant portion of early heart disease cases—18 times more than those caused by FH.
