Genetic variants associated with glaucomatous visual field loss in primary open-angle glaucoma
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is characterized by a progressive optic neuropathy with visual field loss. To investigate the genetic variants associated with visual field loss in POAG, Japanese POAG patients (n = 426) and control subjects (n = 246 ...

Discovery and genotyping of structural variation from long-read haploid genome sequence data [PDF]
In an effort to more fully understand the full spectrum of human genetic variation, we generated deep single-molecule, real-time (SMRT) sequencing data from two haploid human genomes.

Ethnic differences in adiposity and diabetes risk – insights from genetic studies [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes is more common in non-Europeans and starts at a younger age and at lower BMI cut-offs. This review discusses the insights from genetic studies about pathophysiological mechanisms which determine risk of disease with a focus on the role of
