Identification of 15 new psoriasis susceptibility loci highlights the role of innate immunity

Lam C. Tsoi, +199 more
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and independent data sets genotyped on the Immunochip identified 15 new susceptibility loci, increasing to 36 the number associated with psoriasis in European individuals, and identified five independent signals within previously known loci.

Genome-wide association study identifies a variant in HDAC9 associated with large vessel ischemic stroke

TL;DR: The authors conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for ischemic stroke and its subtypes in 3,548 affected individuals and 5,972 controls, all of European ancestry, and identified a new association for large vessel stroke within HDAC9 (encoding histone deacetylase 9) on chromosome 7p21.

Interaction between ERAP1 and HLA-B27 in ankylosing spondylitis implicates peptide handling in the mechanism for HLA-B27 in disease susceptibility

TL;DR: This paper reported the identification of three variants in the RUNX3, LTBR-TNFRSF1A and IL12B regions convincingly associated with ankylosing spondylitis (P -8 in the combined discovery and replication datasets) and a further four loci at PTGER4, TBKBP1, ANTXR2 and CARD9.

Finding safety: a pilot study of managed alcohol program participants' perceptions of housing and quality of life.

TL;DR: The managed alcohol programs environment characterized by caring, respect, trust, a sense of home, “feeling like family”, and the opportunities for family and cultural reconnections is consistent with First Nations principles for healing and recovery and principles of harm reduction.

Do managed alcohol programs change patterns of alcohol consumption and reduce related harm? A pilot study

TL;DR: The quantitative and qualitative findings of this pilot study suggest that MAP participation was associated with a number of positive outcomes including fewer hospital admissions, detox episodes, and police contacts leading to custody, reduced NBA consumption, and decreases in some alcohol-related harms.
