Multiple new genetic loci associated with kidney function and Chronic Kidney Disease: The CKDGen Consortium
2010-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Introduction and Aims: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant public health problem of increasing prevalence. Previous studies support a genetic contribution to CKD. We therefore aimed to identify genetic risk variants for CKD and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using genome-wide association studies in the CKDGen Consortium. Methods: Data from 67,093 Caucasian participants of 20 populati...
