Analysis of protein-coding genetic variation in 60,706 humans

Monkol Lek, +106 more
- 18 Aug 2016 - 
TL;DR: The aggregation and analysis of high-quality exome (protein-coding region) DNA sequence data for 60,706 individuals of diverse ancestries generated as part of the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) provides direct evidence for the presence of widespread mutational recurrence.

Analysis of protein-coding genetic variation in 60,706 humans

Monkol Lek, +72 more
- 30 Oct 2015 - 
TL;DR: The aggregation and analysis of high-quality exome (protein-coding region) sequence data for 60,706 individuals of diverse ethnicities generated as part of the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) provides direct evidence for the presence of widespread mutational recurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic Yield and Clinical Utility of Sequencing Familial Hypercholesterolemia Genes in Patients With Severe Hypercholesterolemia

TL;DR: In an analysis of participants with serial lipid measurements over many years, FH mutation carriers had higher cumulative exposure to LDL cholesterol than noncarriers and within any stratum of observed LDL cholesterol, risk of CAD was higher among FH mutations carriers than non carriers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Darapladib for preventing ischemic events in stable coronary heart disease.

Harvey D. White, +62 more
TL;DR: In patients with stable coronary heart disease, darapladib did not significantly reduce the risk of the primary composite end point of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic Characterization of Genetically Lowered Human Lipoprotein(a) Levels.

TL;DR: Beyond CHD, genetically lowered Lp(a) levels are associated with a lower risk of peripheral vascular disease, stroke, heart failure, and aortic stenosis, and no association with 31 other disorders, including type 2 diabetes and cancer.
