ω-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Biomarkers and Coronary Heart Disease: Pooling Project of 19 Cohort Studies

Liana C Del Gobbo, +59 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids for primary prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) remains controversial, and most prior longitudinal studies evaluated self-reported cons
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of common genetic determinants of Hemoglobin A1c on type 2 diabetes risk and diagnosis in ancestrally diverse populations: A transethnic genome-wide meta-analysis

Eleanor Wheeler, +258 more
- 12 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: This multiancestry study recommends investigation of the possible benefits of screening for the G6PD genotype along with using HbA1c to diagnose T2D in populations of African ancestry or groups where G 6PD deficiency is common, and investigates the effect of genetic risk-scores comprised of erythrocytic or glycemic variants on incident diabetes prediction and on prevalent diabetes screening performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

5 year mortality predictors in 498 103 UK Biobank participants: a prospective population-based study

TL;DR: The prediction score developed accurately predicts 5 year all-cause mortality and can be used by individuals to improve health awareness, and by health professionals and organisations to identify high-risk individuals and guide public policy.
Journal ArticleDOI
