Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Autoimmune diseases (AIDs) involve immune dysfunction with complex genetic underpinnings. This study examined genetic correlations and directional genetic associations across 15 AIDs to identify common immune pathways. METHODS: We retrieved GWAS summary statistics for 15 AIDs and analyzed genetic overlap using LDSC and Z-score correlations. Pleiotropy was assessed via MAGMA to assign SNPs to genes and...
