Journal ArticleDOI

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale meta-analysis of genome-wide association data identifies six new risk loci for Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of Parkinson's disease genome-wide association studies using a common set of 7,893,274 variants across 13,708 cases and 95,282 controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of the first genome-wide significant risk loci for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder

Ditte Demontis, +126 more
- 01 Jan 2019 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association meta-analysis of 20,183 individuals diagnosed with ADHD and 35,191 controls identifies variants surpassing genome- wide significance in 12 independent loci and implicates neurodevelopmental pathways and conserved regions of the genome as being involved in underlying ADHD biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain

Verneri Anttila, +720 more
- 22 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in the general population, the personality trait neuroticism is significantly correlated with almost every psychiatric disorder and migraine, and it is shown that both psychiatric and neurological disorders have robust correlations with cognitive and personality measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive research synopsis and systematic meta-analyses in Parkinson's disease genetics: the PDGene database.

Christina M. Lill, +62 more
- 15 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: This study provides an exhaustive and up-to-date summary of the status of PD genetics research that can be readily scaled to include the results of future large-scale genetics projects, including next-generation sequencing studies.
