TL;DR: In this article, a collaborative GWAS involving 9,772 cases of European descent collected by 23 research groups working in 15 different countries, they have replicated almost all of the previously suggested associations and identified at least a further 29 novel susceptibility loci.

TL;DR: The sequence of the euchromatic part of human chromosome 22 is reported, which consists of 12 contiguous segments spanning 33.4 megabases, contains at least 545 genes and 134 pseudogenes, and provides the first view of the complex chromosomal landscapes that will be found in the rest of the genome.

TL;DR: In this paper, the identification of three variants in the RUNX3, LTBR-TNFRSF1A and IL12B regions convincingly associated with ankylosing spondylitis (P < 5 x 10(-8) in the combined discovery and replication datasets) and a further four loci at PTGER4, TBKBP1, ANTXR2 and CARD9 that show strong association across all their datasets (p < 5x 10(-6) overall, with support in each of the three datasets studied).

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and independent data sets genotyped on the Immunochip identified 15 new susceptibility loci, increasing to 36 the number associated with psoriasis in European individuals, and identified five independent signals within previously known loci.

TL;DR: Variants in the gene encoding melatonin receptor 1B (MTNR1B) were consistently associated with fasting glucose across all ten genome-wide association scans, and previous associations of fasting glucose with variants at the G6PC2 and GCK loci are confirmed.
