GWAS of 126,559 Individuals Identifies Genetic Variants Associated with Educational Attainment

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

DNA methylation-based measures of biological age: meta-analysis predicting time to death

Brian H. Chen, +74 more
TL;DR: Evidence that epigenetic age predicts all-cause mortality above and beyond chronological age and traditional risk factors is strengthened and estimates that incorporate information on blood cell counts lead to highly significant associations with all- Cause mortality are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

KORA--a research platform for population based health research.

TL;DR: The KORA infrastructure, aspects of data management and quality control, and the concept of cooperative research are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association scan meta-analysis identifies three Loci influencing adiposity and fat distribution

Cecilia M. Lindgren, +155 more
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: By focusing on anthropometric measures of central obesity and fat distribution, a meta-analysis of 16 genome-wide association studies informative for adult waist circumference and waist–hip ratio identified three loci implicated in the regulation of human adiposity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute stroke: usefulness of early CT findings before thrombolytic therapy.

TL;DR: The response to rt-PA in patients with ischemic stroke can be predicted on the basis of initial CT findings of the extent of parenchymal hypoattenuation in the territory of the middle cerebral artery.
