Mendelian Randomization Analysis of the Causal Link Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
This Mendelian randomization study provides genetic evidence supporting a causal effect of rheumatoid arthritis on the risk of interstitial lung disease, highlighting potential shared mechanisms between autoimmune arthritis and pulmonary fibrosis. ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease that is ...

Whole‐genome paternal uniparental disomy identified through prenatal single‐nucleotide polymorphism‐based cell‐free DNA screening

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Prenatal single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)‐based cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) screening can identify genome‐wide paternal uniparental disomy (GW‐UPDpat), including cases with complete hydatidiform mole with a coexisting fetus (CHMCF), those with placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) and those with a mosaic/chimeric GW‐UPDpat syndrome ...

Development of Microsatellite Markers for Ex Situ Management of the Harpy Eagle Using Next Generation Sequencing

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Harpy Eagle (Harpia harpyja), one of the largest birds of prey in the world, is threatened with extinction throughout its entire area of occurrence in the Neotropics. While conservation efforts for the wild populations are crucial, it is also important to focus on ex situ conservation actions.

Avian extra‐pair paternity in the last European primeval forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Primeval forests offer a reference baseline to understand the origins and evolution of mating systems, as their relatively undisturbed environment provides a glimpse into how ecological interactions and natural selection play out in their original context.

Early life exploration behaviour and life‐history loci are colocalized in an adaptive genomic hotspot in Atlantic salmon

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The genetic architecture of phenotypic correlations offers insights into how natural selection operates in the wild. Two functional phenotypes in Atlantic salmon, early life exploration and age‐at‐maturity, are correlated at an adaptive genomic hotspot, but through distinct genetic markers (SNPs), ruling out causality.

Polygenic Risk for Pre‐Eclampsia and the Long‐Term Risk of Incident Hypertension and Cardiovascular Disease: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate whether genetic predisposition to pre‐eclampsia (PE), measured by a polygenic risk score (PRS), is associated with incident hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) after delivery in Asian women. Design Prospective population‐based cohort study.

Generalisability of Maternal Genetic Risk Score for Birth Weight Across Racial Identity and Ancestry: A Secondary Analysis of a Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Maternal genotypes may be useful to customise foetal growth assessment, but generalisability across diverse racial and ancestral groups remains uncertain. We assessed the generalisability of a genetic risk score for birth weight (GRSBW), derived from participants of predominantly European ancestry, within a diverse U.S.

Implications of uniparental disomy in forensic kinship testing: A case study of paternal isodisomy on chromosome 3

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract In typical inheritance, a child receives one chromosome of each pair from each parent. In rare cases, however, both chromosomes may be inherited from the same parent, a phenomenon known as uniparental disomy (UPD). In forensic kinship testing, UPD can lead to Mendelian inconsistencies between parent and child, increasing the risk of ...
