Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index

Elizabeth K. Speliotes, +374 more
TL;DR: 18 new loci associated with body mass index are identified, one of which includes a copy number variant near GPRC5B, and genes in other newly associated loci may provide new insights into human body weight regulation.

Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: A mendelian randomisation study

Benjamin F. Voight, +140 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a Mendelian randomisation analysis was performed to compare the effect of HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and genetic score on risk of myocardial infarction.

A comprehensive 1000 Genomes–based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease

Majid Nikpay, +167 more
- 07 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of coronary artery disease (CAD) cases and controls, interrogating 6.7 million common (minor allele frequency (MAF) > 0.05) and 2.7 millions low-frequency (0.005 < MAF < 0.5) variants.

Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height

Hana Lango Allen, +344 more
- 14 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that hundreds of genetic variants, in at least 180 loci, influence adult height, a highly heritable and classic polygenic trait, and indicates that GWA studies can identify large numbers of loci that implicate biologically relevant genes and pathways.
