Abstract excerpt
Socioeconomic status (SES) is a critical factor in determining health outcomes and is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, our understanding of the genetic structure of SES remains incomplete. Here, we conducted a large-scale exome study of SES markers (household income, occupational status, educational attainment, and social deprivation) in 350,770 individuals. For rare coding variants, we...
