TL;DR: In additional genome-wide meta-analyses adjusting for PA and interaction with PA, 11 novel adiposity loci are identified, suggesting that accounting for PA or other environmental factors that contribute to variation in adiposity may facilitate gene discovery.

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for kidney function–related traits, including 71,149 east Asian individuals from 18 studies in 11 population-, hospital- or family-based cohorts, conducted as part of the Asian Genetic Epidemiology Network (AGEN), identified 17 loci newly associated with kidney function-related traits.
