TL;DR: Several of the likely causal genes are highly expressed or known to act in the central nervous system (CNS), emphasizing, as in rare monogenic forms of obesity, the role of the CNS in predisposition to obesity.

TL;DR: To identify rheumatoid arthritis risk loci in European populations, a meta-analysis of two published genome-wide association studies totaling 3,393 cases and 12,462 controls identified a common variant at the CD40 gene locus and identified evidence of association at four additional gene loci.
