The Influence of Age and Sex on Genetic Associations with Adult Body Size and Shape: A Large-Scale Genome-Wide Interaction Study

Thomas W. Winkler, +438 more
- 01 Oct 2015 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed meta-analyses of 114 studies with genome-wide chip and/or Metabochip data by the Genetic Investigation of Anthropometric Traits (GIANT) Consortium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-Ethnic Genome-wide Association Study for Atrial Fibrillation

Carolina Roselli, +260 more
- 11 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: This large, multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies 97 loci significantly associated with atrial fibrillation that are enriched for genes involved in cardiac development, electrophysiology, structure and contractile function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale analyses of common and rare variants identify 12 new loci associated with atrial fibrillation

Ingrid E. Christophersen, +195 more
- 01 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: 12 new genetic loci that exceeded genome-wide significance, implicating genes involved in cardiac electrical and structural remodeling are identified, providing insights into the molecular basis of atrial fibrillation and may facilitate the identification of new potential targets for drug discovery.
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.
