A genome wide association study of frozen shoulder identifies a common variant of <i>WNT7B</i> and diabetes as causal risk factors
2020-11-16
Abstract excerpt
Frozen shoulder is a painful condition that often requires surgery and affects up to 5% of individuals aged 40-60 years. Little is known about the causes of the condition, but diabetes is a strong risk factor. To begin to understand the biological mechanisms involved, we aimed to identify genetic variants associated with frozen shoulder and to use Mendelian randomization to test the causal role of diabetes. We per...
