Cornelius A. Rietveld, +230 more
- 21 Jun 2013 - 
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).
Journal ArticleDOI

The prevalence of metabolic syndrome and metabolically healthy obesity in Europe: a collaborative analysis of ten large cohort studies.

TL;DR: There is considerable variability in the prevalence of healthy obesity across the different European populations studied, even when unified criteria were used to classify this phenotype.

The Role of Adiposity in Cardiometabolic Traits: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis

Tove Fall, +150 more
- 25 Jun 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this study, Prokopenko and colleagues provide novel evidence for causal relationship between adiposity and heart failure and increased liver enzymes using a Mendelian randomization study design.
Journal ArticleDOI

DataSHIELD: taking the analysis to the data, not the data to the analysis

TL;DR: The technical implementation of DataSHIELD is described, using a modified R statistical environment linked to an Opal database deployed behind the computer firewall of each DC, which is currently used by the Healthy Obese Project and the Environmental Core Project for the federated analysis of 10 data sets across eight European countries.

Adiposity as a cause of cardiovascular disease: a Mendelian randomization study

Sara Hägg, +68 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of body mass index (BMI) on risk of cardiovascular diseases was investigated using Mendelian randomization (MR) methods, and the results indicated a strong association between BMI and incident coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure, and ischaemic stroke.
