International meta-analysis of PTSD genome-wide association studies identifies sex- and ancestry-specific genetic risk loci. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The risk of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following trauma is heritable, but robust common variants have yet to be identified. In a multi-ethnic cohort including over 30,000 PTSD cases and 170,000 controls we conduct a genome-wide association ...

Friendship and Natural Selection

open access: yes, 2014
More than any other species, humans form social ties to individuals who are neither kin nor mates, and these ties tend to be with similar people. Here, we show that this similarity extends to genotypes.

Risk of childhood and adolescent, and young adult cancer in offspring of men with testicular cancer: A Danish nationwide study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Testicular germ cell cancer (TC), the most common solid tumor among young men in Western countries, has survival rates exceeding 95 percent, allowing most survivors to pursue fatherhood. Concerns remain, however, about cancer risk in offspring, given potential mutagenic effects incurred during treatment for TC.

ULK4 and CDKN2A polymorphisms influence the risk of developing monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is an asymptomatic precursor to multiple myeloma, sharing substantial genetic features with overt malignancy. Given evidence implicating autophagy in myeloma risk, this study examined whether genetic variations in autophagy‐related genes influence MGUS susceptibility.

Derivation and Validation of a Predictive Model for Advanced Colorectal Neoplasia Among Average‐Risk Adults in China

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Efficient pre‐colonoscopy risk stratification tools are needed, especially in China. Using multicenter colorectal cancer screening data from Shandong Province, the authors developed and validated a risk prediction model for advanced colorectal neoplasia in asymptomatic individuals using sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, and medical ...

Socioeconomic Status Modifies the Risk of Gastric Cancer Through Metabolomic Signature: Evidence From a Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of metabolites in the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and gastric cancer remains unclear. This study seeks to elucidate the role of metabolomics in the association between SES and gastric cancer, as well as to explore potential interactions between metabolic signatures and polygenic risk score (PRS) in the context of ...
