Multi-ancestry genome-wide analysis identifies common genetic variants for self-reported sleep duration and shared genetic effects
2022-02-19
Abstract excerpt
Both short and long sleep duration are associated with increased risk of chronic diseases, but the genetic determinants of sleep duration are largely unknown outside of European populations. Here we report transferability of a polygenic score of 78 European ancestry sleep duration SNPs to an African (n=7,288; p=0.003), a South Asian (n=7,485; p=0.025), and a Japanese (n=13,618; p=6x10 -4 ) cohort, but not to a co...
