TL;DR: In this article, a genome-wide association study of educational attainment was conducted in a discovery sample of 101,069 individuals and a replication sample of 25,490 individuals, and three independent SNPs are genome wide significant (rs9320913, rs11584700, rs4851266).

Robert C. Green,L. Adrienne Cupples,Rodney C.P. Go,Kelly S. Benke,Timi Edeki,Patrick Griffith,Mary Williams,Yvonne G. Hipps,Neill R. Graff-Radford,David Bachman,Lindsay A. Farrer +10 more
TL;DR: First-degree relatives of African Americans with AD have a higher cumulative risk of dementia than do those of whites with AD, and the patterns of risk among first-degree biological relatives stratified by APOE genotype of the probands were similar in white families and African American families.

Victor W. Henderson,Victor W. Henderson,Kelly S. Benke,Robert C. Green,L. A. Cupples,Lindsay A. Farrer +5 more
TL;DR: The observational findings are consistent with the view that HT may protect younger women from AD or reduce the risk of early onset forms of AD, or that HT used during the early postmenopause may reduce AD risk.

TL;DR: It is concluded that common variants at 2p12 show suggestive evidence for association with childhood aggression, and further studies should clarify its biological meaning.
