The utility of the polygenic risk score(PRS)to identify individuals at higher risk of stroke beyond clinical risk remains unclear,and we clarified this using Chinese population-based prospective cohorts.Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the 10-year risk,and Fine and Gray’s models were used for hazard ratios(HRs),their 95%confidence intervals(CIs),and the lifetime risk according to PRS and clinical risk categories.A total of 41,006 individuals aged 30–75 years with a mean follow-up of 9.0 years were included.Comparing the top versus bottom 5%of the PRS,the HR was 3.01(95%CI 2.03–4.45)in the total population,and similar findings were observed within clinical risk strata.Marked gradients in the 10-year and lifetime risk across PRS categories were also found within clinical risk categories.Notably,among individuals with intermediate clinical risk,the 10-year risk for those in the top 5%of the PRS(7.3%,95%CI 7.1%–7.5%)reached the threshold of high clinical risk(≥7.0%)for initiating preventive treatment,and this effect of the PRS on refining risk stratification was evident for ischemic stroke.Even among those in the top 10%and 20%of the PRS,the 10-year risk would also exceed this level when aged≥50 and≥60 years,respectively.Overall,the combination of the PRS with the clinical risk score improved the risk stratification within clinical risk strata and distinguished actual high-risk individuals with intermediate clinical risk.
