  • A genome-wide association study of outcome from traumatic brain injury - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35301180

    ABSTRACT: Summary Background Factors such as age, pre-injury health, and injury severity, account for less than 35% of outcome variability in traumatic brain injury (TBI). While some residual outcome variability may be attributable to genetic factors, published candidate gene association studies have often been underpowered and subject to publication bias. Methods We performed the first genome- and transcriptome-wide association studies (GWAS, TWAS) of genetic effects on outcome in TBI. The study population consisted of 5268 patients from prospective European and US studies, who attended hospital within 24 h of TBI, and satisfied local protocols for computed tomography. Findings The estimated heritability of TBI outcome was 0·26. GWAS revealed no genetic variants with genome-wide signific

  • Genome-wide analysis in over 1 million individuals of European ancestry yields improved polygenic risk scores for blood pressure traits - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38689001

    ABSTRACT: Hypertension affects more than one billion people worldwide. Here we identify 113 novel loci, reporting a total of 2,103 independent genetic signals (P < 5 × 10−8) from the largest single-stage blood pressure (BP) genome-wide association study to date (n = 1,028,980 European individuals). These associations explain more than 60% of single nucleotide polymorphism-based BP heritability. Comparing top versus bottom deciles of polygenic risk scores (PRSs) reveals clinically meaningful differences in BP (16.9 mmHg systolic BP, 95% CI, 15.5-18.2 mmHg, P = 2.22 × 10−126) and more than a sevenfold higher odds of hypertension risk (odds ratio, 7.33; 95% CI, 5.54-9.70; P = 4.13 × 10−44) in an independent dataset.
