Background Recent genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified a number of
novel genetic determinants of blood lipid concentrations in Europeans. However, it is still …

This study proposed lipid fingerprinting of human seminal plasma by mass spectrometry as
an analytical method to differentiate biological conditions. For this purpose, we chose …

At least 19 loci harbor common variations that contribute to blood lipid concentrations in
humans. Larger scale genome-wide association studies should identify additional loci, and …

Background Pregnancy is accompanied by profound changes in lipid metabolism. We
aimed to assess whether effects of second trimester body mass index and maternal lipid …

Objective—Genetic studies might provide new insights into the biological mechanisms
underlying lipid metabolism and risk of CAD. We therefore conducted a genome-wide …

Importance Dyslipidemia in young adults in the United States during their childbearing years
is common, and the consequences for the next generation are poorly understood. Further …

Background High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein
cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) levels are influenced by both genes and the …

Blood lipid concentrations are heritable risk factors associated with atherosclerosis and
cardiovascular diseases. Lipid traits exhibit considerable variation among populations of …

Epidemiologic evidence regarding association of ovarian cancer risk with blood lipid level
and hyperlipidemia is inconsistent. We aimed to synthesize available epidemiologic studies …

Family and twin studies suggest that up to 50% of individual differences in human fertility
within a population might be heritable. However, it remains unclear whether the genes …
