Abstract excerpt
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous group of chronic lung conditions. Genome-wide association studies have identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with COPD and the co-occurring conditions, suggesting common biological mechanisms underlying COPD and these co-occurring conditions. To identify them, we have integrated information across different biological levels...
