  • Better safe than sorry-Whole-genome sequencing indicates that missense variants are significant in susceptibility to COVID-19 - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36662838

    ABSTRACT: Undoubtedly, genetic factors play an important role in susceptibility and resistance to COVID-19. In this study, we conducted the GWAS analysis. Out of 15,489,173 SNPs, we identified 18,191 significant SNPs for severe and 11,799 SNPs for resistant phenotype, showing that a great number of loci were significant in different COVID-19 representations. The majority of variants were synonymous (60.56% for severe, 58.46% for resistant phenotype) or located in introns (55.77% for severe, 59.83% for resistant phenotype). We identified the most significant SNPs for a severe outcome (in AJAP1 intron) and for COVID resistance (in FIG4 intron). We found no missense variants with a potential causal function on resistance to COVID-19; however, two missense variants were determined as significa

  • Participation bias in the UK Biobank distorts genetic associations and downstream analyses - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37106081

    ABSTRACT: While volunteer-based studies such as the UK Biobank have become the cornerstone of genetic epidemiology, the participating individuals are rarely representative of their target population. To evaluate the impact of selective participation, here we derived UK Biobank participation probabilities on the basis of 14 variables harmonized across the UK Biobank and a representative sample. We then conducted weighted genome-wide association analyses on 19 traits. Comparing the output from weighted genome-wide association analyses (neffective = 94,643 to 102,215) with that from standard genome-wide association analyses (n = 263,464 to 283,749), we found that increasing representativeness led to changes in SNP effect sizes and identified novel SNP associations for 12 traits.
