A genome-wide association search for type 2 diabetes genes in African Americans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
African Americans are disproportionately affected by type 2 diabetes (T2DM) yet few studies have examined T2DM using genome-wide association approaches in this ethnicity.

Large-Scale Genome-Wide Association Studies and Meta-Analyses of Longitudinal Change in Adult Lung Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous loci influencing cross-sectional lung function, but less is known about genes influencing longitudinal change in lung function.

Genome-wide association study reveals a QTL and strong candidate genes for umbilical hernia in pigs on SSC14

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Umbilical hernia is one of the most prevalent congenital defect in pigs, causing economic losses and substantial animal welfare problems. Identification and implementation of genomic regions controlling umbilical hernia in breeding is of great

Genome-wide association study identifies a variant in HDAC9 associated with large vessel ischemic stroke [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic factors have been implicated in stroke risk, but few replicated associations have been reported. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for ischemic stroke and its subtypes in 3,548 affected individuals and 5,972 controls, all of ...

Genome-Wide Association Study of Major Depressive Disorder: New Results, Meta-Analysis, and Lessons Learned [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common complex disorder with a partly genetic etiology. We conducted a genome-wide association study of the MDD2000+ sample (2431 cases, 3673 screened controls and >1 M imputed single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)).
