Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain

Verneri Anttila, +720 more
- 22 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in the general population, the personality trait neuroticism is significantly correlated with almost every psychiatric disorder and migraine, and it is shown that both psychiatric and neurological disorders have robust correlations with cognitive and personality measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel genetic associations for blood pressure identified via gene-alcohol interaction in up to 570K individuals across multiple ancestries

Mary F. Feitosa, +299 more
- 18 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: In insights into the role of alcohol consumption in the genetic architecture of hypertension, a large two-stage investigation incorporating joint testing of main genetic effects and single nucleotide variant (SNV)-alcohol consumption interactions is conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping genomic loci implicates genes and synaptic biology in schizophrenia

Vassily Trubetskoy, +432 more
- 08 Apr 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , a two-stage genome-wide association study of up to 76,755 individuals with schizophrenia and 243,649 control individuals was conducted, and the authors reported common variant associations at 287 distinct genomic loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic analysis of quantitative traits in the Japanese population links cell types to complex human diseases

Masahiro Kanai, +13 more
- 01 Mar 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that even without prior biological knowledge of cross-phenotype relationships, genetics corresponding to clinical measurements successfully recapture those measurements’ relevance to diseases, and thus can contribute to the elucidation of unknown etiology and pathogenesis.

Multiancestry genome-wide association study of 520,000 subjects identifies 32 loci associated with stroke and stroke subtypes

Rainer Malik, +170 more
TL;DR: A multiancestry genome-wide-association meta-analysis and discovered 22 new stroke risk loci, indicating mechanisms not previously implicated in stroke pathophysiology, with prioritization of risk variants and genes accomplished through bioinformatics analyses using extensive functional datasets.
