• Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39024449

  ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Findings from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have provided foundational knowledge of the genetic basis of disease, facilitating precision approaches for prevention and treatment. Current GWAS results are limited by underrepresentation of individuals from diverse populations, leading to concerns with generalizability regarding our knowledge of the relationships between genes, traits, and disease. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Million Veteran Program (MVP), one of the largest US-based biobanks, addresses this need; 29% of MVP comprises individuals genetically similar to African (AFR), Admixed American (AMR), and East Asian (EAS) reference populations. With over 635,000 participants and more than 44.3M genotyped variants linked with detailed phenotyp

• Genome-wide Association Studies of over 30,000 Samples with Bone Mineral Density at Multiple Skeletal Sites and Its Clinical Relevance - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41206123

  ABSTRACT: Abstract The ultimate goal of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) is to translate its discoveries into clinical practice. To explore the clinical use of GWAS findings in the bone field, we conducted a GWAS of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived bone mineral density (BMD) traits at 11 skeletal sites, within over 30,000 European individuals from the UK Biobank. A total of 91 unique and independent loci were identified for 11 DXA-derived BMD traits and fractures, including 5 novel loci (harboring the genes ABCA1, CHSY1, CYP24A1, SWAP70, and PAX1) for 6 BMD traits. These loci exhibited evidence of association in both males and females, which could serve as independent replication. We demonstrated that each polygenic risk score (PRS) was independently associated with fra
