Common variants in the JAZF1 gene associated with height identified by linkage and genome-wide association analysis
(2009)Genes for height have gained interest for decades, but only recently have candidate genes started to be identified. We have performed linkage analysis and genome-wide association for height in approximately 4000 individuals ... -
Genome-wide linkage analysis of serum creatinine in three isolated European populations
(2009)There is increasing evidence for a role of genetic predisposition in the etiology of kidney disease, but linkage scans have been poorly replicated. Here we performed a genome-wide linkage analysis of serum creatinine on ... -
Meta-analysis of 28,141 individuals identifies common variants within five new loci that influence uric acid concentrations
(2009)Elevated serum uric acid levels cause gout and are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and diabetes. To investigate the polygenetic basis of serum uric acid levels, we conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association ...
