Proteomic signatures of BMI generalize across ancestries and reveal cardiometabolic heterogeneity beyond measured BMI

Plasma proteomic scores for body mass index have been derived primarily in European populations, and it is unclear whether these scores are generalizable and useful in other ancestries. Here, we show that plasma proteomic BMI scores developed in participants of European, East Asian, South Asian and African ancestries f...
