Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Eighteen known susceptibility loci for IgAN account for only a small proportion of IgAN risk. METHODS: Genome-wide meta-analysis was performed in 2628 patients and 11,563 controls of Chinese ancestry, and a replication analysis was conducted in 6879 patients and 9019 controls of Chinese descent and 1039 patients and 1289 controls of European ancestry. The data were used to assess the association of...
