    The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the paradigms for disease surveillance and rapid deployment of scientific-based evidence for understanding disease biology, susceptibility and treatment. We have organized a large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infected individuals in Sao Paulo, Brazil, one of the most affected areas of the pandemic in the country, itself one of the most affected in the world. Here, we present the results of the initial analysis in the first 5233 participants of the BRACOVID study. We have conducted a GWAS for COVID-19 hospitalization enrolling 3533 cases (hospitalized COVID-19 participants) and 1700 controls (non-hospitalized COVID-19 participants). Models were adjusted

  • Improved genetic discovery and fine-mapping resolution through multivariate latent factor analysis of high-dimensional traits - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40220762

    ABSTRACT: Summary Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of high-dimensional traits, such as blood cell or metabolic traits, often use univariate approaches, ignoring trait relationships. Biological mechanisms generating variation in high-dimensional traits can be captured parsimoniously through a GWAS of latent factors. Here, we introduce flashfmZero, a zero-correlation latent-factor-based multi-trait fine-mapping approach. In an application to 25 latent factors derived from 99 blood cell traits in the INTERVAL cohort, we show that latent factor GWASs enable the detection of signals generating sub-threshold associations with several blood cell traits. The 99% credible sets (CS99) from flashfmZero were equal to or smaller in size than those from univariate fine-mapping of blood cell trait
