A genome-wide analysis of 'Bounty' descendants implicates several novel variants in migraine susceptibility

TL;DR: Peltonen et al. as discussed by the authors performed a pedigree-based genome-wide association study of the isolated population of Norfolk Island, which has a high prevalence of migraine and identified a high heritability of migraine in the Norfolk Island population.

Genome-wide analysis identifies 12 loci influencing human reproductive behavior

Nicola Barban, +252 more
TL;DR: A large genome-wide association study of both sexes including 251,151 individuals for AFB and 343,072 individuals for NEB finds 12 independent loci that are significantly associated with AFB and/or NEB in a SNP-based genome- wide association study and 4 additional loci associated in a gene-based effort.

Multi-ancestry study of blood lipid levels identifies four loci interacting with physical activity

Tuomas O. Kilpeläinen, +236 more
TL;DR: It is found that physical activity modifies the effects of four genetic loci on HDL or LDL cholesterol, and higher levels of physical activity enhance the HDL cholesterol-increasing effects of the CLASP1, LHX1, and SNTA1 loci and attenuate the LDL cholesterol- Increasing effect of the CNTNAP2 locus.
