Journal ArticleDOI

Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids

Tanya M. Teslovich, +218 more
- 05 Aug 2010 - 
TL;DR: The results identify several novel loci associated with plasma lipids that are also associated with CAD and provide the foundation to develop a broader biological understanding of lipoprotein metabolism and to identify new therapeutic opportunities for the prevention of CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery and refinement of loci associated with lipid levels

Cristen J. Willer, +319 more
- 06 Oct 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is found that loci associated with blood lipid levels are often associated with cardiovascular and metabolic traits, including coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, blood pressure, waist-hip ratio and body mass index.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants associated with plasma triglycerides and risk for coronary artery disease

Ron Do, +266 more
- 01 Nov 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that triglyceride-rich lipoproteins causally influence risk for CAD, and the strength of a polymorphism's effect on triglyceride levels is correlated with the magnitude of its effect on CAD risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Loci for Adiponectin Levels and Their Influence on Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Traits: A Multi-Ethnic Meta-Analysis of 45,891 Individuals

Zari Dastani, +618 more
- 29 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies in 39,883 individuals of European ancestry to identify genes associated with metabolic disease identifies novel genetic determinants of adiponectin levels, which, taken together, influence risk of T2D and markers of insulin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal evidence that fatherhood decreases testosterone in human males

TL;DR: It is suggested that T mediates tradeoffs between mating and parenting in humans, as seen in other species in which fathers care for young, and that T and reproductive strategy have bidirectional relationships in human males.
