Genetic variants in five novel loci including CFB and CD40 predispose to chronic hepatitis B
AssociationN=6,033Jiang DK et al.(2015)· Hepatology

A genome-wide association study of 83 plasma proteins relevant to cardiovascular disease in 3,394 European subjects identified 79 genome-wide significant loci (p<5e-8), with 55 replicating in independent cohorts (n=2,639). Using eQTL analysis and network methods, the authors proposed plausible causal mechanisms for 25 trans-acting loci including post-translational regulation of KITLG by MMP9 and several receptor-ligand pairs. Multiple loci showed evidence of causal association with coronary artery disease risk.

Investigation of genetic risk factors for chronic adult diseases for association with preterm birth
AssociationN=1,792Nadia Falah et al.(2013)· Human Genetics

Case-control study of 673 preterm birth (PTB) cases vs 1,119 controls across four maternal cohorts testing 35 SNPs in cardiovascular, inflammatory, and metabolic disease genes. Found 13 statistically significant associations with PTB (P<0.05), more than expected by chance (binomial P=0.02). Most significant was HLA-DQA1 rs9272346 G allele protective effect in US White mothers (P=0.02, OR=0.65, 95% CI 0.46-0.94), which nominally replicated in Danish cohort (P=0.02, OR=0.85, 95% CI 0.75-0.97) but lost significance after correction for multiple testing.
