Polygenic score for hand grip strength has no effect on survival in humans.
“PGS HGS was not associated with better survival after acute adverse health events compared to the nondiseased period.”

Polygenic score for hand grip strength decreases body mass index in humans (β = -0.112 kg/m2, SE = 0.017, p = 1.69E-11).
“A 1 standard deviation (SD) increase in the PGS HGS predicted a lower body mass index (β = -0.112 kg/m2, standard error [SE] = 0.017, p = 1.69E-11) in women”

Noncommunicable disease
downin humans1
Polygenic score for hand grip strength lowers the risk of noncommunicable disease in humans (reduced risk by 2%-10%).
“A higher PGS HGS was associated with a reduced risk of selected common noncommunicable diseases and mortality by 2%-10%.”
