African ancestry meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies identifies a novel locus and validates multiple loci associated with kidney function

2023-03-16

Abstract excerpt

Despite recent efforts to increase diversity in genome-wide association studies (GWASs), most loci currently associated with kidney function are still limited to European ancestry due to the underlying sample selection bias in available GWASs. We set out to identify susceptibility loci associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcrea) in 80027 individuals of African-ancestry from the UK Biobank (UKBB...
