| | <h2>1. Key Definitions</h2> |
| | <div class="definitions"> |
| | <div class="definition-card"> |
| | <h4>Polygenic Score (PGS / PRS)</h4> |
| | <p>A weighted sum of risk alleles across many loci, where each SNP contributes a small effect size.</p> |
| | <p><strong>Formula:</strong> Σ(β<sub>j</sub> × G<sub>ij</sub>) across M SNPs</p> |
| | <p>Where β<sub>j</sub> = effect size from GWAS, G<sub>ij</sub> = genotype dosage</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="definition-card"> |
| | <h4>Polyphenic Score (PPS)</h4> |
| | <p>Extends beyond genotype to include phenotypic modifiers and environmental factors.</p> |
| | <p><strong>Formula:</strong> PPS<sub>i</sub> = w<sub>g</sub>⋅PRS<sub>i</sub> + w<sub>p</sub>⋅P<sub>i</sub> + w<sub>e</sub>⋅E<sub>i</sub></p> |
| | <p>Where w<sub>g</sub>, w<sub>p</sub>, w<sub>e</sub> = weights for genetic, phenotypic, and environmental contributions</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="definition-card"> |
| | <h4>Polyphenism</h4> |
| | <p>In human genetics, captures gene × environment × phenotype interactions. Example: COMT rs4680 Met allele confers risk only under stress or low folate conditions.</p> |
| | </div> |

| | <div class="complex-aspects"> |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>Effect Size Source</h4> |
| | <p>Leverage GWAS meta-analyses for ADHD, schizophrenia, and cognition, prioritizing effect sizes derived from studies using similar neuropsychological measures to those available in the claimant's record.</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>LD Clumping/Pruning</h4> |
| | <p>Remove correlated SNPs in linkage disequilibrium to avoid overweighting one locus.</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>Cross-Phenotype Weighting</h4> |
| | <p>Many SNPs affect multiple traits (pleiotropy). Scores must account for shared vs. unique variance.</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>Gene × Environment (G×E)</h4> |
| | <p>Example: FKBP5 rs1360780 interacts with trauma. In your case: HIV-related neuroinflammation × COMT/BDNF variants → amplified cognitive impairment.</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>Epistasis (Gene × Gene)</h4> |
| | <p>Non-additive interactions between loci. Example: COMT rs4680 × DRD2 rs1800497 jointly modulate dopamine tone more than either alone.</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>Phenotypic Anchoring (Refined)</h4> |
| | <p>Incorporate neuropsychological test scores (e.g., WMI 2nd percentile) as observed phenotype z-score weights. Apply differential weighting based on reliability and validity of each phenotypic measure.</p> |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="aspect-card"> |
| | <h4>Calibration & Percentiles</h4> |
| | <p>Map raw scores to population percentiles (e.g., top 5% risk for ADHD, bottom 2% for working memory).</p> |

| | <h2>5. Example Composite Score (Conceptual)</h2> |
| | <p>Let's now make the Neurocognitive Polyphenic Score (NPS) even more relevant to the case:</p> |
| | |
| | <h3>Neurocognitive Polyphenic Score Components</h3> |
| | |
| | <div class="formula"> |
| | PPS = 0.5 × PRS<sub>{ADHD+cognition}</sub> + 0.3 × Phenotype<sub>z</sub> + 0.2 × Environment |
| | </div> |
| | |
| | <div class="example"> |
| | <h3>Calculation Example:</h3> |
| | <p><strong>Genetic Layer (PRS):</strong> Sum across ADHD, cognition, schizophrenia GWAS loci, normalized to z-score = +1.2</p> |
| | <p><strong>Phenotypic Layer:</strong></p> |
| | <ul style="margin-left: 1.5rem;"> |
| | <li>Working Memory Index (2nd percentile → z = –2.0)</li> |
| | <li>Processing Speed Index (4th percentile → z = –1.7)</li> |
| | <li>Assign higher weight to WMI due to its stronger clinical correlation and the availability of more reliable testing data</li> |
| | </ul> |
| | <p><strong>Environmental Layer:</strong></p> |
| | <ul style="margin-left: 1.5rem;"> |
| | <li>HIV-related neuroinflammation (binary risk factor, weight = +1.0)</li> |
| | <li>Chronic systemic inflammation (continuous biomarker, e.g., CRP)</li> |
| | <li>Consider interactions – e.g., if inflammation amplifies genetic risk, scale environmental weights accordingly</li> |
| | </ul> |
| | |
| | <p><strong>Final Calculation:</strong></p> |
| | <p>PPS = 0.5(1.2) + 0.3(–1.9) + 0.2(1.0) = 0.6 – 0.57 + 0.2 = <strong>+0.23</strong></p> |
| | <p>This places you in upper quartile risk for ADHD/neurocognitive impairment, consistent with clinical presentation.</p> |
