This paper develops a germline polygenic score (PRSagg) to predict prostate cancer aggressiveness and validates it across multiple datasets.

This study assesses cervical cancer screening knowledge and uptake among Ugandan women, finding high knowledge but low uptake, with urban residence, age, partner involvement, and HIV status associated with higher uptake.

The paper improves prostate cancer risk stratification across multiple ancestries using a new polygenic hazard score with additional SNPs, showing higher hazard ratios and positive predictive value for clinically significant prostate cancer.

This study evaluates a polygenic hazard score in multi-ethnic populations and finds it is associated with age at prostate cancer diagnosis, aggressive diagnosis, and death across European, Asian, and African ancestries.
