Adjusting for common variant polygenic scores improves yield in rare variant association analyses

With the emergence of large-scale sequencing data, methods for improving power in rare variant association tests are needed. Here we show that adjusting for common variant polygenic scores improves yield in gene-based rare variant association tests across 65 quantitative traits in the UK Biobank (up...
