Performance characteristics for tests based on the 30 Crohn's disease variants. Index individuals and their siblings were simulated in the unselected and selected (family history positive/affected sibling) scenarios. The prediction models estimate risk based on the index genotype G_I, and optionally sibling's phenotype D_S and genotype G_S. The metrics are the area under the ROC curve (AUC), the squared correlation between disease state and risk (R²) and the relative enrichment of cases in the top 1, 5 and 10% of individuals with the highest risk scores relative to the baseline risk for that population (T₁, T₅ and T₁₀). See main text for details.
