ABSTRACT Background To evaluate the associations of systemic diseases with AMD incidence and explore whether polygenic risk score (PRS) for AMD influences these associations. To assess the impacts of polymorbidities and serum biomarkers on AMD risk. Methods This prospective study of 471156 AMD‐free UK Biobank participants assessed systemic diseases ...

LRRK2 as a Potential Disease‐Modifying Target in Sporadic Parkinson's Disease
Abstract A growing understanding of the role that leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) plays in Parkinson's disease (PD) supports continued focus on this enzyme as a therapeutic target for PD. Accumulating evidence suggests that there are phenotypic, neuropathologic, and biological similarities between sporadic PD (sPD) and familial forms in which ...

Deviation From Genetically Predicted BMI and All‐Cause Mortality: A Cohort Study in the UK Biobank
ABSTRACT Objective The relation between genetically predicted BMI (gBMI) and actual BMI may have health effects. This study examines the relationship between deviations from gBMI and all‐cause mortality in 208,146 UK Biobank participants. Methods We derived gBMI from polygenic risk scores, with deviations calculated as the difference between observed ...
