Quantitative Trait Loci in Inbred Lines

open access: yes, 2001
Quantitative traits result from the influence of multiple genes (quantitative trait loci) and environmental factors. Detecting and mapping the individual genes underlying such 'complex' traits is a difficult task. Fortunately, populations obtained from crosses between inbred lines are relatively ideal for this - at least far more ideal than livestock ...

Alzheimer's Biomarkers and Visuospatial Cognition in Parkinson's Disease: Modification by α‐Synuclein and Mediation of Age Effects

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Visuospatial deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD) often precede dementia and complicate daily functioning. Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and α‐synuclein aggregation frequently co‐occur in PD, but their combined impact on cognition is unclear.

MendelR: A One‐Stop R Toolkit for Mendelian Randomization Analysis

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MendelR is a fully automated R package specifically developed for Mendelian randomization (MR) studies, designed to address the technical challenges of causal inference in biomedical research. As a powerful causal inference method, Mendelian randomization can effectively reduce confounding bias in observational studies.

Comprehensive Evidence for Mortality and Underlying Morbidity Related to Visceral Fat Distribution

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Linking obesity to mortality is an intriguing and controversial topic. This study tried to comprehensively assess 8 adiposity surrogates and mortality association among middle‐to‐old‐aged adults to identify a superior one, and explore explanatory disorders. Data sources included the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), UK

Biomarkers of Leucine‐Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2) and Lysosomal Dysfunction in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Common and rare genetic variants in leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) have been linked with sporadic and familial Parkinson's disease (PD). Recently, we discovered that common genetic variation near the LRRK2 locus determined survival in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).

Correlation Between Gut Microbiota, Metabolites, and Diabetic Complications: A Two‐Sample Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesMedicine Advances, EarlyView.
Fang et al. demonstrate a significant causal relationship among gut microbiota, gut metabolites, and diabetic complications, highlighting a biological link underlying mechanisms of diabetic vascular diseases. These findings provide important implications for future therapeutic strategy and risk prediction.
