  Chagas disease is an infectious disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi and is endemic from Latin American countries. The goal of our study was to identify novel genetic loci associated with chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy development in Chagas disease patients from different Latin American populations. We performed a cross-sectional, nested case-control study including 3 sample collections from Colombia, Argentina, and Bolivia. Samples were genotyped to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS). These results were meta-analyzed with summary statistic data from Brazil, gathering a total of 3413 Chagas disease patients. To identify the functional impact of the associated variant and its proxies, we performed an in silico analysis of this region. The meta-analysis revealed a nove
