Variants in the fetal genome near pro-inflammatory cytokine genes on 2q13 associate with gestational duration.
Nature communications ·doi:10.1038/s41467-019-11881-8

The duration of pregnancy is influenced by fetal and maternal genetic and non-genetic factors. Here we report a fetal genome-wide association meta-analysis of gestational duration, and early preterm, preterm, and postterm birth in 84,689 in…

Genome-wide analysis identifies 12 loci influencing human reproductive behavior.
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/ng.3698

The genetic architecture of human reproductive behavior-age at first birth (AFB) and number of children ever born (NEB)-has a strong relationship with fitness, human development, infertility and risk of neuropsychiatric disorders. However, …

Genome-wide associations for birth weight and correlations with adult disease.
Nature ·doi:10.1038/nature19806

Birth weight (BW) has been shown to be influenced by both fetal and maternal factors and in observational studies is reproducibly associated with future risk of adult metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular dis…
