Polygenic risk score-guided personalized osteoporosis screening: a population-based study
The integration of PRS could revolutionize osteoporosis prevention by enabling early detection in genetically high-risk women, potentially years before the current screening guidelines. Our findings advance the field of precision prevention for osteoporosis and may significantly reduce the population burden of osteoporotic fractures.
