    • Genome-wide association analysis identifies a meningioma risk locus at 11p15.5. 

      Claus, EB; Cornish, AJ; Broderick, P; Schildkraut, JM; Dobbins, SE; et al. (OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2018-10-09)
      BACKGROUND: Meningiomas are adult brain tumors originating in the meningeal coverings of the brain and spinal cord, with significant heritable basis. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have previously identified only ...

    • Impact of atopy on risk of glioma: a Mendelian randomisation study. 

      Disney-Hogg, L; Cornish, AJ; Sud, A; Law, PJ; Kinnersley, B; et al. (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. 

      Disney-Hogg, L; Sud, A; Law, PJ; Cornish, AJ; Kinnersley, B; et al. (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 ...

    • Mendelian randomisation study of the relationship between vitamin D and risk of glioma. 

      Takahashi, H; Cornish, AJ; Sud, A; Law, PJ; Kinnersley, B; et al. (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 ...
