Genome-wide physical activity interactions in adiposity. A meta-analysis of 200,452 adults

Mariaelisa Graff, +349 more
- 27 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: In additional genome-wide meta-analyses adjusting for PA and interaction with PA, 11 novel adiposity loci are identified, suggesting that accounting for PA or other environmental factors that contribute to variation in adiposity may facilitate gene discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale analyses of common and rare variants identify 12 new loci associated with atrial fibrillation

Ingrid E. Christophersen, +195 more
- 01 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: 12 new genetic loci that exceeded genome-wide significance, implicating genes involved in cardiac electrical and structural remodeling are identified, providing insights into the molecular basis of atrial fibrillation and may facilitate the identification of new potential targets for drug discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrasonographic hepatic steatosis increases prediction of mortality risk from elevated serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase levels†‡

TL;DR: Investigation of the association of serum gamma‐glutamyltransferase (GGT) levels with all‐cause mortality and the impact of ultrasonographic findings of hepatic hyperechogenicity found the need for further risk stratification in the case of increased GGT levels was found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis identifies common and rare variants influencing blood pressure and overlapping with metabolic trait loci

Chunyu Liu, +105 more
- 01 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: This large collection of blood pressure–associated loci suggests new therapeutic strategies for hypertension, emphasizing a link with cardiometabolic risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Is Associated with a Variant in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein 1

Morris J. Bown, +507 more
TL;DR: This study has identified a biologically plausible genetic variant associated specifically with AAA, and it is suggested that this variant has a possible functional role in LRP1 expression.
