Approaches to detect genetic effects that differ between two strata in genome-wide meta-analyses: Recommendations based on a systematic evaluation [PDF]
Genome-wide association meta-analyses (GWAMAs) conducted separately by two strata have identified differences in genetic effects between strata, such as sex-differences for body fat distribution.

Greenwashing in food marketing undermines consumer trust and impedes Sustainable Development Goal 12 (SDG 12). While prior research has established linkages between greenwashing perception, green skepticism, and purchase intention, no publicly deployed decision support tool has been developed for practitioner use.

Objective In this study, we aimed to establish the causal effects of lowering sclerostin, target of the antiosteoporosis drug romosozumab, on atherosclerosis and its risk factors. Methods A genome‐wide association study meta‐analysis was performed of circulating sclerostin levels in 33,961 European individuals.

X‐Chromosome Association Study in Latin American Cohorts Identifies New Loci in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Sex differences in Parkinson's disease (PD) risk are well‐known. However, the role of sex chromosomes in the development and progression of PD is still unclear. Objective The objective of this study was to perform the first X‐chromosome–wide association study for PD risk in a Latin American cohort.

Genetic studies over the last few years, have changed the perception of late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), highlighting its polygenic nature with multiple susceptibility genetic loci. We applied a multidimensional reduction approach to detect gene–gene interactions affecting LOAD by testing variants harbored by genes previously investigated in ...

APOE, ABCA7, and RASGEF1C are associated with earlier onset of amyloid deposition from more than 4000 harmonized positron emission tomography images. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION New methods estimate amyloid positivity onset age (EAOA) from amyloid positron emission tomography (PET). We explore the genetics of EAOA to identify molecular factors underlying the earliest Alzheimer's disease (AD) changes. METHODS Harmonized amyloid PET data from 4216 participants were used in genome‐wide survival, tissue ...

Including diverse and admixed populations in genetic epidemiology research
Abstract The inclusion of ancestrally diverse participants in genetic studies can lead to new discoveries and is important to ensure equitable health care benefit from research advances. Here, members of the Ethical, Legal, Social, Implications (ELSI) committee of the International Genetic Epidemiology Society (IGES) offer perspectives on methods and ...
