Genome-wide association study of alcohol consumption and genetic overlap with other health-related traits in UK Biobank (N=112,117)

2017-03-14

Abstract excerpt

Alcohol consumption has been linked to over 200 diseases and is responsible for over 5% of the global disease burden. Well known genetic variants in alcohol metabolizing genes, e.g. ALDH2, ADH1B, are strongly associated with alcohol consumption but have limited impact in European populations where they are found at low frequency. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of self-reported alcohol consump...
