Our recent efforts that estimates the effect of protein levels of ABO on pregnancy related outcomes: a Mendelian randomization study
medrxiv.org
Protein level of Histo-Blood Group ABO System Transferase (ABO) has been reported to be associated with cardiometabolic diseases. But its effect on pregnancy related outcomes was still unclear. Here...

This study provides genetic evidence to suggest that lower levels of sclerostin may increase the risk of hypertension, type 2 DM, MI, and the extent of CAC. Taken together, these findings underscore...

So excited to see the flagship and 7 more GBMI papers online today. It’s such a honor to work with the great team led by @bmneale, @cristenw, @dalygene, @genetisaur coordinated by @sineadbchapman. Big thanks to biobanks and their participants for making our research possible.
Check out the first studies from the Global Biobank Meta-analysis Initiative @GlobalBiobanks offering guidance on making #GWAS more diverse and representative. Now published in @CellGenomics
