Enhancing dementia diagnosis data in UK Biobank: the UK Biobank Brain Health Study

open access: yesAlzheimer's & Dementia
Abstract Background As the UK Biobank population of half a million participants enters older age (current mean age 73 years), the number of dementia cases in the cohort is rapidly increasing. At present, individuals living with dementia can be identified through linkage to electronic hospital ...

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.

Phenotypic and transcriptomic characterization of biallelic RNU2‐2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A significant proportion of individuals with suspected genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) remain unsolved following whole genome sequencing (WGS). Here we describe biallelic RNU2‐2 variants causing a recently reported, severe, recessive DEE.

Multi‐Cohort Analysis Reveals Genetic Predispositions to Clonal Hematopoiesis as Mutation‐Specific Risk Factors for Stroke

open access: yesAdvanced Genetics, Volume 6, Issue 1, March 2025.
This study comprehensively evaluated the differential effect of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) mutations on the risk of various stroke subtypes and functional recovery. It shows that TET2 is associated with small vessel stroke possibly via a pro‐inflammatory pathway. Abstract Recent observational studies have found an association between Clonal Hematopoesis

Exploring Interaction between Genetically Predicted Body Mass Index and Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels on the Odds for Psoriasis in UK Biobank and the HUNT Study: A Factorial Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesJID Innovations
Mendelian randomization (MR) studies show that higher body mass index (BMI) and lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) increase psoriasis risk. The combined effect of these factors has not been explored using factorial MR. Using cross-sectional data from UK
