Endophenotype Effect Sizes Provide Evidence Supporting Variant Pathogenicity in Monogenic Disease Susceptibility Genes

Valerie N. Morrill, +53 more
- 31 Aug 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, population-based associations between rare variants and quantitative endophenotypes for three monogenic diseases (low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol for familial hypercholesterolemia, electrocardiographic QTc interval for long QT syndrome, and glycosylated hemoglobin for maturity-onset diabetes of the young) are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yaoyong Lu, +117 more
- 23 May 2023 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated age and sex trajectories, regional differences, and global reference values of arterial stiffness as assessed by pulse wave velocity (PWV) in general healthy participants.

Dietary ω-3 fatty acids and the incidence of atrial fibrillation in the Million Veteran Program.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used multivariable Cox regression to estimate the HRs of atrial fibrillation across quintiles of ω-3 fatty acid consumption and a cubic spline analysis to assess the dose-response relations between ω3 fatty acids and AF.
