Bivariate GWAS scan identifies six novel loci associated with lipid levels and coronary artery disease
2018-05-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Plasma lipid levels are heritable and genetically associated with risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) routinely analyze these traits independently of one another. Joint GWAS for two related phenotypes can lead to a higher-powered analysis to detect variants contributing to both traits. <h4>Methods and Results</h4> We performed a bivariate GWA...
