Heatmap of average PRS scores (p-value < 5 × 10–8) of 14 disorders across worldwide populations. The disorders are grouped based on the disease domain and the populations are arranged based on their geographical location and ancestry, starting with Africans (AFR) and followed by Europeans (EUR), South Asians (SAS), East Asians (EAS), and Admixed Americans (AMR). Shades of cells indicate the standardized average genetic risk of each disorder for each population. A higher risk is shown by red, and lower risk is indicated by blue
