In 325 exomes of South Brazilian Mennonites, we identified 23 pathogenic variants (P) and 27 likely P, with founder effects identified for 96% of P, whose frequencies differed from non‐Finnish Europeans, Amish, and Brazilian populations. ABSTRACT The Mennonite population has a unique history of 500 years of genetic isolation shaped by at least three ...

Disentangling the relationship between glucose, insulin and brain health: A UK Biobank study
Abstract Background Glycaemic traits are associated with poorer brain health and dementia risk. Recent advances in genetic instruments for specific glycaemic markers enable an in‐depth investigation of the likely nature of associations and underlying mechanisms between diabetes‐related mechanisms and brain health and dementia.

Implications of inflammation and sex in lower extremity arterial disease
The graphical abstract illustrates the role of inflammation and sex‐related differences in lower extremity artery disease (LEAD). Key inflammatory biomarkers associated with LEAD include C‐reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), and D‐dimer, which contribute to vascular inflammation and atherosclerotic plaque formation in lower limb ...
