  • Genetic evidence for T-wave area from 12-lead electrocardiograms to monitor cardiovascular diseases in patients taking diabetes medications. - Human genetics (2024) · Qi M, Zhang H, Xiu X, He D, Cooper DN, Yang Y, Zhao H · PubMed 38507016

    Aims Many studies indicated use of diabetes medications can influence the electrocardiogram (ECG), which remains the simplest and fastest tool for assessing cardiac functions. However, few studies have explored the role of genetic factors in determining the relationship between the use of diabetes medications and ECG trace characteristics (ETC). Methods Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were performed for 168 ETCs extracted from the 12-lead ECGs of 42,340 Europeans in the UK Biobank. The genetic correlations, causal relationships, and phenotypic relationships of these ETCs with medication usage, as well as the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), were estimated by linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC), Mendelian randomization (MR), and regression model, respectively.

  • A longitudinal genome-wide association study of bone mineral density mean and variability in the UK Biobank. - Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA (2023) · He D, Liu H, Wei W, Zhao Y, Cai Q, Shi S, Chu X, Qin X, Zhang N, Xu P, Zhang F · PubMed 37500982

    Bone mineral density (BMD) is an essential predictor of osteoporosis and fracture. We conducted a genome-wide trajectory analysis of BMD and analyzed the BMD change. This study aimed to identify the genetic architecture and potential biomarkers of BMD. Our analysis included 141,261 white participants from the UK Biobank with heel BMD phenotype data. We used a genome-wide trajectory analysis tool, TrajGWAS, to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of BMD. Then, we validated our findings in previously reported BMD genetic associations and performed replication analysis in the Asian participants. Finally, gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of the identified candidate genes was conducted using the FUMA platform. A total of 52 genes associated with BMD trajectory mean were identified,

  • Multi-ancestry GWAS of the electrocardiographic PR interval identifies 202 loci underlying cardiac conduction - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32439900

    ABSTRACT: The electrocardiographic PR interval reflects atrioventricular conduction, and is associated with conduction abnormalities, pacemaker implantation, atrial fibrillation (AF), and cardiovascular mortality. Here we report a multi-ancestry (N = 293,051) genome-wide association meta-analysis for the PR interval, discovering 202 loci of which 141 have not previously been reported. Variants at identified loci increase the percentage of heritability explained, from 33.5% to 62.6%. We observe enrichment for cardiac muscle developmental/contractile and cytoskeletal genes, highlighting key regulation processes for atrioventricular conduction. Additionally, 8 loci not previously reported harbor genes underlying inherited arrhythmic syndromes and/or cardiomyopathies suggesting a role for

  • Common Genetic Variants Modulate the Electrocardiographic Tpeak-to-Tend Interval - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32386560

    ABSTRACT: Sudden cardiac death is responsible for half of all deaths from cardiovascular disease. The analysis of the electrophysiological substrate for arrhythmias is crucial for optimal risk stratification. A prolonged T-peak-to-Tend (Tpe) interval on the electrocardiogram is an independent predictor of increased arrhythmic risk, and Tpe changes with heart rate are even stronger predictors. However, our understanding of the electrophysiological mechanisms supporting these risk factors is limited. We conducted genome-wide association studies (GWASs) for resting Tpe and Tpe response to exercise and recovery in ∼30,000 individuals, followed by replication in independent samples (∼42,000 for resting Tpe and ∼22,000 for Tpe response to exercise and recovery), all from UK Biobank.
