Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery and fine-mapping of height loci via high-density imputation of GWASs in individuals of African ancestry

Mariaelisa Graff, +236 more
TL;DR: In this article, a trans-ethnic meta-analysis revealed novel signals and further improved fine-mapping of putative causal variants in loci shared between African and European ancestry populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

IGF1, IGFBP1 and IGFBP3 genes and mammographic density: The Multiethnic Cohort

TL;DR: There is weak evidence that genetic variations in IGFBP1 or IGFBP3 may be related to mammographic density, and ethnicity may modify these relations.
Journal ArticleDOI

No Association of Type 2 Diabetes Risk Variants and Prostate Cancer Risk: the Multiethnic Cohort and PAGE

TL;DR: Resequencing and fine-mapping of the loci for diabetes and prostate cancer that were identified by genome-wide association studies are necessary to understand any genetic contribution for the inverse association between these common diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polygenic risk modeling for prediction of epithelial ovarian cancer risk

Jonathan Tyrer, +266 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors implemented computationally efficient, penalized, logistic regression models (lasso, elastic net, stepwise) to individual level genotype data and a Bayesian framework with continuous shrinkage, "select and shrink for summary statistics" (S4), to summary level data for epithelial non-mucinous ovarian cancer risk prediction.
