TL;DR: A genome-wide search for loci associated with the upper versus the lower 5th percentiles of body mass index, height and waist-to-hip ratio as well as clinical classes of obesity, including up to 263,407 individuals of European ancestry finds a large overlap in genetic structure and the distribution of variants between traits based on extremes and the general population and little etiological heterogeneity between obesity subgroups.

TL;DR: FGA and FGG SNPs as well as FGA, FGB, FGG and FGA-FGG haplotypes do not seem to be important contributors to CAD occurrence in the authors' sample, and FGB rs1800787 and rs1800789 SNPs seem to confer protection to disease onset lowering the risk by about 50% in homozygotes for the minor alleles.

TL;DR: The VDR gene is shown to affect BMD in women with low calcium intake, while its effect is masked in women in the higher calcium intake group, given that it exerts a positive effect on BMD even in the presence of negative genetic predisposition.
