• Identification of fifty-seven novel loci for abdominal wall hernia development and their biological and clinical implications: results from the UK Biobank. - Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery (2022) · Wei J, Attaar M, Shi Z, Na R, Resurreccion WK, Haggerty SP, Zheng SL, Helfand BT, Ujiki MB, Xu J · PubMed 34382107

  Familial aggregation is known for both hernia development and recurrence. To date, only one genome-wide association study (GWAS) limited to inguinal hernia has been reported that identified four risk-associated loci. We aim to investigate polygenic architecture of abdominal wall hernia development and recurrence. A GWAS was performed in 367,394 subjects from the UK Biobank to investigate the polygenic architecture of abdominal wall hernia subtypes (inguinal, femoral, umbilical, ventral) and identify specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are associated with their risk. Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis was performed to identify genes whose expression levels are associated with these SNPs. A genetic risk score (GRS) was used to assess the cumulative effect of

• Genome-wide association study and trans-ethnic meta-analysis identify novel susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes mellitus - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38685053

  ABSTRACT: Background The genetic basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is under-investigated in the Middle East, despite the rapidly growing disease prevalence. We aimed to define the genetic determinants of T2D in Qatar. Methods Using whole genome sequencing of 11,436 participants (2765 T2D cases and 8671 controls) from the population-based Qatar Biobank (QBB), we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of T2D with and without body mass index (BMI) adjustment. Results We replicated 93 known T2D-associated loci in a BMI-unadjusted model, while 96 known loci were replicated in a BMI-adjusted model. The effect sizes and allele frequencies of replicated SNPs in the Qatari population generally concurred with those from European populations. We identified a locus specific to our cohort locate

• Genetic architecture of bone marrow fat fraction implies its involvement in osteoporosis risk - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40796918

  ABSTRACT: Bone marrow adipose tissue, as a distinct adipose subtype, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of skeletal, metabolic, and hematopoietic disorders. To identify its underlying genetic factors, we utilized a deep learning algorithm capable of quantifying bone marrow fat fraction (BMFF) in the vertebrae and proximal femur using magnetic resonance imaging data of over 38,000 UK Biobank participants. Genome-wide association analyses uncovered 373 significant BMFF-associated variants (P-value < 5 × 10−9), with enrichment in bone remodeling, metabolism, and hematopoiesis pathway. Furthermore, genetic correlation highlighted a significant association between BMFF and skeletal disease. In about 300,000 individuals, polygenic risk scores derived from three proximal femur BMFF
