Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function

Cristian Pattaro, +735 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular filtration rate suggests that genetic determinants of eGFR are mediated largely through direct effects within the kidney and highlight important cell types and biological pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide meta-analyses of multiancestry cohorts identify multiple new susceptibility loci for refractive error and myopia

Virginie J. M. Verhoeven, +128 more
- 01 Mar 2013 - 
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

Outdoor activity and myopia in Singapore teenage children

Mohamed Dirani, +8 more
- 01 Aug 2009 - 
TL;DR: Outdoor activity may protect against development of myopia in children, supporting recent Australian data as near work did not predict outdoor activity, and can be viewed as an independent factor and not merely the reciprocal of near work.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants near CAV1 and CAV2 are associated with primary open-angle glaucoma

Gudmar Thorleifsson, +53 more
- 01 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: The risk variant identified here is located close to CAV1 and CAV2, both of which are expressed in the trabecular meshwork and retinal ganglion cells that are involved in the pathogenesis of POAG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methodology of the Singapore Indian Chinese Cohort (SICC) Eye Study: Quantifying ethnic variations in the epidemiology of eye diseases in Asians

Raghavan Lavanya, +14 more
- 08 Dec 2009 - 
TL;DR: In conjunction with the Singapore Malay Eye Study, the SICC study will permit an in-depth evaluation of the prevalence, risk factors, and impact of major eye diseases in Chinese, Indians and Malays, three distinct Asian ethnic groups, whose combined numbers represent half the world’s population.
