Dr Eric Topol has a good dissection of this over on his substack [1] The Nature paper itself is here [2] Briefly: "The model was as good or slightly better than the best current single disease predictive models for dementia or heart disease (see below), and most others, but worse for Type 2 diabetes using HbA1c as single marker. Importantly, it predicted not just one but the multiple diseases (←when that risk was present) for an individual and the timing of appearance for each disease."
