Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fibrinogen and C-reactive protein (CRP) play an important role in inflammatory pathways and share multiple genetic loci reported in previously published genome-wide association studies (GWAS), highlighting their common genetic background. Leveraging the shared biology may identify further loci pleiotropically associated with both fibrinogen and CRP. OBJECTIVES: To identify novel genetic variants that...
