Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection leads to a wide-range of clinical outcomes, which have been extensively studied through genome-wide association studies (GWAS). METHODS: Starting from lead genetic variants associated with COVID-19 infection and severity, we identified a subset of non-coding candidate variants with potential regulatory functions. We combined...
