Shared Genetic Links Between Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Obesity-Related Traits: A Genome-Wide Association Study

2020-08-12

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Epidemiological and clinical studies have suggested comorbidity between amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and obesity-related traits. However, little is known about their shared genetic architecture.<bold>Objective:</bold> To examine whether there exist genetic enrichment between ALS and eleven obesity-related traits, including body mass index (BMI), waist hip...
