The study demonstrates PRS's utility in predicting thyroid cancer risk in the Han Chinese population, with higher PRS associated with increased risk and distinct clinical features. While this study focuses on the Han Chinese population, we recognize the importance of comparing PRS performance across different ancestries to fully understand ethnic genetic diversity in cancer risk assessment. Future studies should aim to include such comparative analysis.
