Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology

Adam E. Locke, +481 more
TL;DR: This paper conducted a genome-wide association study and meta-analysis of body mass index (BMI), a measure commonly used to define obesity and assess adiposity, in up to 339,224 individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery and refinement of loci associated with lipid levels

Cristen J. Willer, +319 more
- 06 Oct 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is found that loci associated with blood lipid levels are often associated with cardiovascular and metabolic traits, including coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, blood pressure, waist-hip ratio and body mass index.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale association analysis provides insights into the genetic architecture and pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes

Andrew P. Morris, +232 more
- 01 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of genetic variants on the Metabochip, including 34,840 cases and 114,981 controls, overwhelmingly of European descent, and identified ten previously unreported T2D susceptibility loci, including two showing sex-differentiated association.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ankle brachial index combined with Framingham risk score to predict cardiovascular events and mortality: A meta-analysis

F. G. R. Fowkes, +46 more
- 09 Jul 2008 - 
TL;DR: Measurement of the ABI may improve the accuracy of cardiovascular risk prediction beyond the FRS, and is associated with approximately twice the 10-year total mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and major coronary event rate compared with the overall rate in each FRS category.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide trans-ancestry meta-analysis provides insight into the genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes susceptibility.

Anubha Mahajan, +395 more
- 01 Mar 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors aggregated published meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), including 26,488 cases and 83,964 controls of European, east Asian, south Asian and Mexican and Mexican American ancestry.
