PFAS Exposures and the Human Metabolome: A Systematic Review of Epidemiological Studies.
Current pollution reports ·doi:10.1007/s40726-023-00269-4

Purpose of reviewThere is a growing interest in understanding the health effects of exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) through the study of the human metabolome. In this systematic review, we aimed to identify consistent…

Fine-mapping of an expanded set of type 2 diabetes loci to single-variant resolution using high-density imputation and islet-specific epigenome maps
·doi:10.1101/245506

We aggregated genome-wide genotyping data from 32 European-descent GWAS (74,124 T2D cases, 824,006 controls) imputed to high-density reference panels of >30,000 sequenced haplotypes. Analysis of ˜27M variants (˜21M with minor allele frequen…

Systematic Evaluation of Pleiotropy Identifies 6 Further Loci Associated With Coronary Artery Disease.
Journal of the American College of Cardiology ·doi:10.1016/j.jacc.2016.11.056

BackgroundGenome-wide association studies have so far identified 56 loci associated with risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Many CAD loci show pleiotropy; that is, they are also associated with other diseases or traits.ObjectivesThis st…
