Genetic variants of calcium and vitamin D metabolism in kidney stone disease
2019-01-14
Abstract excerpt
Kidney stone disease (nephrolithiasis) is a major clinical and economic health burden 1,2 with a heritability of ~45-60% 3 . To identify genetic variants associated with nephrolithiasis we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and meta-analysis in British and Japanese populations, including 12,123 nephrolithiasis cases and 416,928 controls. Twenty loci associated with nephrolithiasis were identified,...
