DELphi Procedure for Developing Recommendations for the Implementation of Wearable Devices and Polygenic Risk Scores

DEL-DIP is a prospective observational study employing a Delphi methodology (at least two online rounds) to elicit and consolidate the views of an expert panel within the INNOPREV project. The study aims to develop operational recommendations to support the coordinated implementation of Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) and wearable devices in cardiovascular prevention. Specifically, it addresses the following research question: which recommendations and requirements-genomic, digital, and clinical/organizational-are necessary to integrate PRS and wearable technologies into routine practice and healthcare services, and for which of these elements do experts achieve consensus (defined as a Content Validity Index, CVI, \> 79%)

Polygenic Risk Stratification Combined With mpMRI to Identify Clinically Relevant Prostate Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate a screening method to detect clinically relevant prostate cancer. This clinical trial is using genetic data to determine a man's risk of cancer, together with multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) to identify men with higher grade cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: * If genetic data related to prostate cancer used with MRI can identify higher-grade, potentially fatal prostate cancer * What age a MRI is useful clinically for prostate cancer screening * If deep learning methods used with MRI when the genetic risk of the man is known can more accurately predict significant cancers Participants will: * Get a prostate specific antigen (PSA) blood test * Get an mpMRI * Get the results of their genetic data to determine if they are considered high-, intermediate-, or low-risk for prostate cancer based on the trials genetic testing * Follow-up for this trial based on the participants risk and findings from the PSA test and mpMRI

Utility and Effectiveness of Polygenic Risk Scoring (PRS) for Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

The goal of this study is to assess the benefit to physicians and patients of adding an integrated risk score (IRS) to existing coronary artery risk tools by conducting a randomized prospective study. IRS combines both an individual's coronary artery disease (CAD) polygenic risk score (PRS) and clinical risk factors, like cholesterol levels and age. This study will examine to what extent IRS knowledge impacts physician/provider behavior as well as clinical outcomes including cholesterol levels and incident heart disease.
