MyoScore: Transcriptomic Scoring for Human Skeletal Muscle Health

Calculate MyoScore, a genetically informed muscle health score, from bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) raw count data. MyoScore integrates results from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) across 28 muscle-related phenotypes to quantify muscle health along five dimensions (Strength, Mass, LeanMuscle, Youth, Resilience), each scored from 0 to 100. The package provides preprocessing via counts per million (CPM) normalization, dimension-level and composite scoring, and visualization utilities including radar charts and grouped boxplots.
