The Omnicausal Model Reveals the Highly Polyfactorial Nature of Complex Diseases
ABSTRACT Mendelian randomization (MR) is a human genetics method for inferring causal relationships between risk factors and diseases. A common focus of MR studies has been on the causal inference of a single risk factor on a single disease. This has led to the successful discovery of numerous causal risk factors for disease.

Mendelianization: Concentrating Polygenic Signal Into a Single Causal Locus
ABSTRACT Complex disorders such as depression and alcohol use involve numerous genetic variants, and implicated loci continue to grow with sample size. This proliferation hampers interpretability, as the mechanisms by which so many variants jointly contribute to pathophysiology remain unclear.

Abstract Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) and IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) share the same cell of origin but differ in clonal size. Compared with other B‐cell neoplasms, the lymphoplasmacytic clone in WM can be rather small, limiting our understanding of clonal expansion.

Exploring Effects of Age at the Onset of Myopia on Multiple Diseases Using Electronic Health Records
Purpose: To examine whether genetic predisposition to age at the onset of myopia is associated with the development of future diseases. Design: Mendelian randomization phenome-wide association study (MR-PheWAS) from the UK Biobank.

Abstract Recently, we suggested the combination of chemotherapy and P2RX4 inhibition as a promising novel therapeutic approach for P2RX4‐expressing epithelial tumors to prevent paracrine resistance. Here, we aimed to assess whether determining P2RX4 expression status in colorectal and pancreatic cancer patients would allow stratification of potentially

Disorders associated with the immune system burden multiple organs, although the shared biology exists across the diseases. Preceding family-based studies reveal that immune diseases are heritable to varying degrees, providing the basis for ...

Abstract Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a clinically challenging multisystem neuromuscular hereditary disorder, with generational increase in severity and earlier age at onset. It is caused by an unstable cytosine‐thymine‐guanine repeat expansion at the DMPK locus, accompanied by associated genetic and epigenetic modifications.

SAIGE-GPU: accelerating genome- and phenome-wide association studies using GPUs
Abstract Motivation Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) at biobank scale are computationally intensive, especially for admixed populations requiring robust statistical models. SAIGE is a widely used method for generalized linear mixed-model GWAS but is limited by its CPU-based implementation,

Abstract Genome–phenome association (GPA) prediction can broaden the understanding of biological mechanisms underlying complex phenotypic traits (e.g., diseases and agronomic traits). Traditional deep matrix factorization (DMF)‐based GPA methods can integrate multiple data types and uncover nonlinear associations but often rely on low‐dimensional ...
