Genome-wide association analyses identify 44 risk variants and refine the genetic architecture of major depression

Naomi R. Wray, +262 more
- 26 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals with clinically assessed or self-reported depression identifies 44 independent and significant loci and finds important relationships of genetic risk for major depression with educational attainment, body mass, and schizophrenia.

Multiancestry genome-wide association study of 520,000 subjects identifies 32 loci associated with stroke and stroke subtypes

Rainer Malik, +170 more
TL;DR: A multiancestry genome-wide-association meta-analysis and discovered 22 new stroke risk loci, indicating mechanisms not previously implicated in stroke pathophysiology, with prioritization of risk variants and genes accomplished through bioinformatics analyses using extensive functional datasets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic risk factors for ischaemic stroke and its subtypes (the METASTROKE collaboration): a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies.

Matthew Traylor, +91 more
- 01 Nov 2012 - 
TL;DR: The results show that, although genetic variants can be detected in patients with ischaemic stroke when compared with controls, all associations validated are specific to a stroke subtype, and this finding has two implications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study identifies a variant in HDAC9 associated with large vessel ischemic stroke

Céline Bellenguez, +96 more
- 01 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: A new association for large vessel stroke within HDAC9 (encoding histone deacetylase 9) on chromosome 7p21.1 is identified, which suggests distinct genetic architectures for different stroke subtypes.

Genome-wide association study identifies a variant in HDAC9 associated with large vessel ischemic stroke

TL;DR: The authors conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for ischemic stroke and its subtypes in 3,548 affected individuals and 5,972 controls, all of European ancestry, and identified a new association for large vessel stroke within HDAC9 (encoding histone deacetylase 9) on chromosome 7p21.
