Journal ArticleDOI
Lipoprotein(a) and SARS-CoV-2 infections: susceptibility to infections, ischemic heart disease and thromboembolic events.
Silvia Di Maio,Claudia Lamina,Stefan Coassin,Lukas Forer,Reinhard Würzner,Sebastian Schönherr,Florian Kronenberg +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated whether SARS-CoV-2 infections modify the risk of high lipoprotein(a) concentrations for IHD or thromboembolic events during the first 8.5 months follow-up of the pandemic.
Journal ArticleDOI
A genome-wide association meta-analysis on apolipoprotein A-IV concentrations.
Claudia Lamina,Salome Friedel,Stefan Coassin,Rico Rueedi,Noha A. Yousri,Ilkka Seppälä,Christian Gieger,Sebastian Schönherr,Lukas Forer,Gertraud Erhart,Barbara Kollerits,Pedro Marques-Vidal,Janina S. Ried,Gérard Waeber,Sven Bergmann,Sven Bergmann,Doreen Dähnhardt,Andrea Stöckl,Stefan Kiechl,Olli T. Raitakari,Mika Kähönen,Johann Willeit,Ludmilla Kedenko,Bernhard Paulweber,Annette Peters,Thomas Meitinger,Konstantin Strauch,Terho Lehtimäki,Steven C. Hunt,Peter Vollenweider,Florian Kronenberg +30 more
TL;DR: Two independent SNPs located in or next the APOA4 gene and one SNP in KLKB1 are identified, which suggests an involvement of apoA-IV in renal metabolism and/or an interaction within HDL particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of gene-obesity interaction effects on cholesterol levels: a genetic predisposition score on HDL-cholesterol is modified by obesity.
Claudia Lamina,Lukas Forer,Lukas Forer,Sebastian Schönherr,Sebastian Schönherr,Barbara Kollerits,Janina S. Ried,Christian Gieger,Annette Peters,H.-Erich Wichmann,Florian Kronenberg +10 more
TL;DR: A significant interaction effect between obesity parameters and a SNP-score on HDL-C is revealed: the combined effect of LDL-C-increasing alleles on HDL -C is attenuated with increasing levels of obesity-relevant parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do telomeres have a higher plasticity than thought? Results from the German Chronic Kidney Disease (GCKD) study as a high-risk population.
Julia Raschenberger,Barbara Kollerits,Stephanie Titze,Anna Köttgen,Barbara Bärthlein,Arif B. Ekici,Lukas Forer,Sebastian Schönherr,Hansi Weissensteiner,Margot Haun,Christoph Wanner,Kai-Uwe Eckardt,Florian Kronenberg +12 more
TL;DR: The data are in support of a higher plasticity of shortening and elongations of RTL as until recently anticipated, and whether the longer RTL in patients with long-lasting disease is caused by an activation of telomerase to counteract the shortening ofRTL due to oxidative stress and inflammation needs to be investigated in longitudinal studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of changes in bone mineral parameters with mortality in haemodialysis patients: insights from the ARO cohort.
Claudia Lamina,Florian Kronenberg,Peter Stenvinkel,Marc Froissart,Lukas Forer,Sebastian Schönherr,David C. Wheeler,Kai-Uwe Eckardt,Jürgen Floege +8 more
TL;DR: In the AROii cohort, the ranges of bone mineral biomarkers associated with the lowest mortality ranges were largely consistent with the current Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder guideline recommendations.
