Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Numerous clinical risk factors and moderate heritability have been reported for meniscus injury. However, the genetic etiology of meniscus injury remains understudied. This study was a multiancestry genome-wide association study (GWAS) of meniscus injury aimed at identifying genomic variants that influence risk and elucidating the mechanisms by which they may exert their effects. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES:...
