NOTES
-----------------------------
These analyses were carried out using the full UK Biobank imputation data release (v3b). Analyses were restricted to a subset of UK Biobank, described as “PRS training” in the Supplementary Materials of the published paper. “PRS training” included 187,150 randomly sampled individuals from the White British unrelated (WBU) UK Biobank subset.

CAD and IS case phenotypes were defined as described in the “UK Biobank phenotype definitions” section of the paper’s Supplementary Materials, using both prevalent (pre-baseline) and incident (post-baseline) events.

All analyses included age-at-assessment, sex, genotyping chip, and 10 principal components as covariates. 

We used plink2.0 logistic regression. For chromosome X variants males were treated as having 0 or 2 alternative alleles. 

The results are not adjusted for genomic control.
