Metabolomic and genomic prediction of common diseases in 700,217 participants in three national biobanks by Nightingale Health Biobank Collaborative Group

“…We show that these metabolomic scores are more strongly associated with disease onset than polygenic scores for most of these diseases. In a subset of 18,709 individuals with metabolomic biomarkers measured at two time points we show that people whose scores change have different risk of disease, suggesting that repeat measurements capture changes both to health status and disease risk possibly due to treatment, lifestyle changes or other factors. …”
