Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain

Verneri Anttila, +720 more
- 22 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in the general population, the personality trait neuroticism is significantly correlated with almost every psychiatric disorder and migraine, and it is shown that both psychiatric and neurological disorders have robust correlations with cognitive and personality measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common schizophrenia alleles are enriched in mutation-intolerant genes and in regions under strong background selection

Antonio F. Pardiñas, +90 more
- 26 Feb 2018 - 
TL;DR: A new genome-wide association study of schizophrenia is reported, and through meta-analysis with existing data and integrating genomic fine-mapping with brain expression and chromosome conformation data, 50 novel associated loci and 145 loci are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study identifies 30 loci associated with bipolar disorder

Eli A. Stahl, +342 more
- 01 May 2019 - 
TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis identifies 30 loci associated with bipolar disorder, allowing for comparisons of shared genes and pathways with other psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia and depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring the phenotypic consequences of tissue specific gene expression variation inferred from GWAS summary statistics.

Alvaro N. Barbeira, +263 more
TL;DR: A mathematical expression is derived to compute PrediXcan results using summary data, and the effects of gene expression variation on human phenotypes in 44 GTEx tissues and >100 phenotypes are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic analyses of diverse populations improves discovery for complex traits

Genevieve L. Wojcik, +90 more
- 27 Jun 2019 - 
TL;DR: The value of diverse, multi-ethnic participants in large-scale genomic studies is demonstrated and evidence of effect-size heterogeneity across ancestries for published GWAS associations, substantial benefits for fine-mapping using diverse cohorts and insights into clinical implications are shown.
