Molecular genetic contributions to self-rated health

2015-10-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Poorer self-rated health (SRH) predicts worse health outcomes, even when adjusted for objective measures of disease at time of rating. Twin studies indicate SRH has a heritability of up to 60% and that its genetic architecture may overlap with that of personality and cognition. <h4>Methods</h4> We carried out a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of SRH on 111 749 members of the UK Biobank s...
