Genetic variants associated with subjective well-being, depressive symptoms, and neuroticism identified through genome-wide analyses

Aysu Okbay, +216 more
- 01 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted genome-wide association studies of three phenotypes: subjective well-being (n = 298,420), depressive symptoms (n= 161,460), and neuroticism(n = 170,911).

Genome-wide association and Mendelian randomisation analysis provide insights into the pathogenesis of heart failure.

Sonia Shah, +167 more
TL;DR: Mendelian randomisation analysis supports causal roles for several HF risk factors, and demonstrates CAD-independent effects for atrial fibrillation, body mass index, and hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Causal Associations of Adiposity and Body Fat Distribution With Coronary Heart Disease, Stroke Subtypes, and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify and contrast causal associations of central adiposity (waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index [WHRadjBMI]) and general adiposity with cardiometabolic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

New loci for body fat percentage reveal link between adiposity and cardiometabolic disease risk

Yingchang Lu, +311 more
TL;DR: The loci more strongly associated with BF% showed distinct cross-phenotype association signatures with a range of cardiometabolic traits revealing new insights in the link between adiposity and disease risk.
