Novel associations for hypothyroidism include known autoimmune risk loci [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid disorder, affecting about 5% of the general population. Here we present the first large genome-wide association study of hypothyroidism, in 2,564 cases and 24,448 controls from the customer base of 23andMe, Inc.,

Cytokine gene polymorphisms in preterm infants with necrotising enterocolitis: genetic association study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND The inflammatory cytokine cascade is implicated in the pathogenesis of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). Genetic association studies of cytokine polymorphisms may help to detect molecular mechanisms that are causally related to the disease ...

Population stratification and genetic association studies in South Asia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Population stratification and its influence on genetic association studies is a controversial topic. Although it has been suggested that stratification is unlikely to bias the results of association studies conducted in developed countries, convincing ...

Psychometric precision in phenotype definition is a useful step in molecular genetic investigation of psychiatric disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Affective disorders are highly heritable, but few genetic risk variants have been consistently replicated in molecular genetic association studies. The common method of defining psychiatric phenotypes in molecular genetic research is either a summation ...

The role of 39 psoriasis risk variants on age of psoriasis onset. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple genetic risk factors for psoriasis, but data on their association with age of onset have been marginally explored.

A comprehensive 1000 Genomes-based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Existing knowledge of genetic variants affecting risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) is largely based on genome-wide association studies (GWAS) analysis of common SNPs.

Modeling and Testing for Joint Association Using a Genetic Random Field Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Substantial progress has been made in identifying single genetic variants predisposing to common complex diseases. Nonetheless, the genetic etiology of human diseases remains largely unknown.

TIA1 Mutations in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia Promote Phase Separation and Alter Stress Granule Dynamics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are age-related neurodegenerative disorders with shared genetic etiologies and overlapping clinical and pathological features. Here we studied a novel ALS/FTD family and identified the
