Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This research attempts to clarify whether there are any genetic similarities between sleep traits and hypothyroidism based on publicly accessible large-scale genomewide association studies. METHODS: The methodology included colocalization analysis, cross-phenotype association analysis, and linkage disequilibrium score regression analysis to find common genetic overlap. Through tissue function...
