Multi-Trait Polygenic Scores for COPD and COPD Exacerbations Implicate Druggable Proteins.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
Objectives: To construct multi-trait polygenic scores (PRS) predicting chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and exacerbations, validate their performance in diverse cohorts, and identify PRS-related proteins for potential therapeutic targeting. Design: Prospective cohort studies. Setting: Genetic Epidemiology of COPD (COPDGene; 2007-present), Evaluation of COPD Longitudinally to Identify Predictive Surrogate Endpoints (ECLIPSE; 2005-2008), Mass General Brigham Biobank (MGBB; 2010-present), All of Us (2016-present), and UK Biobank (UKB; 2006-present). Participants: 6,647 non-Hispanic White (NHW) and 2,466 African American (AA) participants from COPDGene; 1,858 participants from ECLIPSE; 118,566 from All of Us; 15,142 from MGBB with genetic data. 5,173 COPDGene and 5,012 UKB participants with proteomic data. Main outcome measures: COPD status (GOLD 2-4 vs. GOLD 0) and COPD exacerbation frequency. Results: PRSmix+, a multi-trait PRS framework, selected 7 traits for a composite PRS (PRS Conclusions: Multi-trait PRS improves prediction of COPD and exacerbation risk. Integration with proteomic data identifies druggable protein targets, offering a promising avenue for precision medicine in COPD management. Trial registration: COPDGene: NCT00608764; ECLIPSE: NCT00292552.
