• Genome-wide association and Mendelian randomization analysis provide insights into the shared genetic architecture between high-dimensional electrocardiographic features and ischemic heart disease. - Human genetics (2024) · Wang X, Qi M, Zhang H, Yang Y, Zhao H · PubMed 38180560

  Observational studies have revealed that ischemic heart disease (IHD) has a unique manifestation on electrocardiographic (ECG). However, the genetic relationships between IHD and ECG remain unclear. We took 12-lead ECG as phenotypes to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for 41,960 samples from UK-Biobank (UKB). By leveraging large-scale GWAS summary of ECG and IHD (downloaded from FinnGen database), we performed LD score regression (LDSC), Mendelian randomization (MR), and polygenic risk score (PRS) regression to explore genetic relationships between IHD and ECG. Finally, we constructed an XGBoost model to predict IHD by integrating PRS and ECG. The GWAS identified 114 independent SNPs significantly (P value < 5 × 10-8/800, where 800 denotes the number of ECG features)

• Trans-ethnic kidney function association study reveals putative causal genes and effects on kidney-specific disease aetiologies - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30604766

  ABSTRACT: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects ~10% of the global population, with considerable ethnic differences in prevalence and aetiology. We assemble genome-wide association studies of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a measure of kidney function that defines CKD, in 312,468 individuals of diverse ancestry. We identify 127 distinct association signals with homogeneous effects on eGFR across ancestries and enrichment in genomic annotations including kidney-specific histone modifications. Fine-mapping reveals 40 high-confidence variants driving eGFR associations and highlights putative causal genes with cell-type specific expression in glomerulus, and in proximal and distal nephron. Mendelian randomisation supports causal effects of eGFR on overall and cause-specific CKD,
