Background: Primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) is sometimes misdiagnosed as autoimmune Addison’s disease (AAD), affecting clinical management and genetic counselling. We tested a polygenic risk score (PRS) for AAD (PRS14AAD) as a tool to reevaluate disease etiology and identify patients misdiagnosed with AAD.Methods: We calculated the PRS14AAD in a cohort of patients diagnosed with AAD but lacking 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies...
