TL;DR: The CREAM consortium conducted genome-wide meta-analyses, which identified 16 new loci for refractive error in individuals of European ancestry and 8 were shared with Asians, and identified 8 additional associated loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved diagnostic yield compared with targeted gene sequencing panels suggests a role for whole-genome sequencing as a first-tier genetic test.

TL;DR: WGS as a primary clinical test provided a higher diagnostic yield than conventional genetic testing in a clinically heterogeneous cohort and confirmed recent disease associations with the genes PIGG, RNU4ATAC, TRIO, and UNC13A.

New susceptibility loci associated with kidney disease in type 1 diabetes.

Niina Sandholm, +105 more

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies of T1D DN revealed association of two SNPs with ESRD in the AFF3 gene and an intergenic SNP on chromosome 15q26 between the genes RGMA and MCTP2, which represent new signals in the pathogenesis of DN.
