Impact of atopy on risk of glioma: a Mendelian randomisation study.
(BMC, 2018-03-15)
BACKGROUND: An inverse relationship between allergies with glioma risk has been reported in several but not all epidemiological observational studies. We performed an analysis of genetic variants associated with atopy to ...
Influence of obesity-related risk factors in the aetiology of glioma.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2018-04-01)
BACKGROUND: Obesity and related factors have been implicated as possible aetiological factors for the development of glioma in epidemiological observation studies. We used genetic markers in a Mendelian randomisation ...
Whole-genome sequencing of chronic lymphocytic leukemia identifies subgroups with distinct biological and clinical features.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-11-01)
The value of genome-wide over targeted driver analyses for predicting clinical outcomes of cancer patients is debated. Here, we report the whole-genome sequencing of 485 chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients enrolled in ...
Phenome-wide association analysis of LDL-cholesterol lowering genetic variants in PCSK9.
(BMC, 2019-10-29)
BACKGROUND: We characterised the phenotypic consequence of genetic variation at the PCSK9 locus and compared findings with recent trials of pharmacological inhibitors of PCSK9. METHODS: Published and individual participant ...
Mendelian randomisation study of the relationship between vitamin D and risk of glioma.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-02-05)
To examine for a causal relationship between vitamin D and glioma risk we performed an analysis of genetic variants associated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels using Mendelian randomisation (MR), an approach ...
