Journal ArticleDOI

Gut microbiome diversity and high-fibre intake are related to lower long-term weight gain

TL;DR: High gut microbiome diversity, high-fibre intake and OTUs implicated in animal models of improved energy metabolism are all correlated with lower term weight gain in humans independently of calorie intake and other confounders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trans-ancestry meta-analyses identify rare and common variants associated with blood pressure and hypertension

Praveen Surendran, +209 more
- 01 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: Thirty new blood pressure– or hypertension-associated genetic regions in the general population are identified, including 3 rare missense variants in RBM47, COL21A1 and RRAS with larger effects than common variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Genetic Architecture of the Human Immune System: A Bioresource for Autoimmunity and Disease Pathogenesis

TL;DR: This data set reveals traits associated with loci known to confer autoimmune susceptibility, providing mechanistic hypotheses linking immune traits with the etiology of disease, and establishes a bioresource that links genetic control elements associated with normal immune traits to common autoimmune and infectious diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome Analyses of >200,000 Individuals Identify 58 Loci for Chronic Inflammation and Highlight Pathways that Link Inflammation and Complex Disorders.

Symen Ligthart, +286 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed two genome-wide association studies (GWASs), on HapMap and 1000 Genomes imputed data, of circulating amounts of CRP by using data from 88 studies comprising 204,402 European individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

New loci for body fat percentage reveal link between adiposity and cardiometabolic disease risk

Yingchang Lu, +311 more
TL;DR: The loci more strongly associated with BF% showed distinct cross-phenotype association signatures with a range of cardiometabolic traits revealing new insights in the link between adiposity and disease risk.
