Polygenic prediction of educational attainment within and between families from genome-wide association analyses in 3 million individuals

Aysu Okbay, +294 more
- 31 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: This paper conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of educational attainment (EA) in a sample of ~3 million individuals and identified 3,952 approximately uncorrelated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
Journal ArticleDOI

Apolipoprotein E polymorphism, serum lipids, myocardial infarction and severity of angiographically verified coronary artery disease in men and women

TL;DR: The results support previous studies in suggesting that the apo E allele epsilon 4 is a risk factor for atherosclerosis, which affects plasma total and LDL-cholesterol and suggest that the APO E allele determines the severity of CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fetal Growth and Preterm Birth Influence Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Arterial Health in Young Adults The Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study

TL;DR: Impaired fetal growth is associated with impaired endothelial function and elevated preclinical atherosclerosis in young adults, partly mediated by inflammation, blood pressure, and triglycerides, most marked for those also born preterm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants at 12q15 and 12q24 are associated with infant head circumference

H. Rob Taal, +230 more
- 15 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: This article performed a meta-analysis of seven genome-wide association studies (GWAS) (N = 10,768 individuals of European ancestry enrolled in pregnancy and/or birth cohorts) and followed up three lead signals in six replication studies (combined N = 19,089).

Genetic variants associated with subjective well-being, depressive symptoms, and neuroticism identified through genome-wide analyses

Magnus Johannesson, +186 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted genome-wide association studies of three phenotypes: subjective well-being (n = 298,420), depressive symptoms (n= 161,460), and neuroticism(n = 170,911).
