Polygenic Risk Score for Coronary Artery Disease (PRS-CAD)

A polygenic risk score will be calculated based on genome-wide genotyping and combined with SCORE2 clinical risk factors to estimate personalized cardiovascular risk. The combined risk (PRS-CAD-SCORE2) will be communicated to participants and their healthcare providers using a standardized communication tool. Participants with elevated risk will be referred to a lipid clinic.

BEHAVIORAL

Standardized Risk Communication Tool (SCORE2)

Participants will receive risk communication based solely on clinical risk factors using the SCORE2 algorithm. The same structured communication tool will be used (without genetic data), along with general lifestyle guidance.
