The PRS developed in the present study is significantly associated with RA risk, showing the potential for early screening of RA in postmenopausal women. This work demonstrates the feasibility of personalized medicine in identifying high-risk individuals for RA, indicating the need for further studies to test the utility of PRS in other populations.
