Abstract Omega-3 (n− 3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (n− 3 PUFAs) have well documented
anti-inflammatory properties, and consequently therapeutic potential in chronic inflammatory …

Meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 240
loci that are associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D),; however, most of these loci have been …

Metabolic dysfunction is becoming a predominant risk for the development of many
comorbidities. Ischemic heart disease (IHD) still imposes the highest disease burden among …

We introduce the design and implementation of a new array, the Korea Biobank Array
(referred to as KoreanChip), optimized for the Korean population and demonstrate findings …

Serum liver enzyme concentrations are the most frequently-used laboratory markers of liver
disease, a major cause of mortality. We conduct a meta-analysis of genome-wide …

Because metabolites are hypothesized to play key roles as markers and effectors of
cardiometabolic diseases, recent studies have sought to annotate the genetic determinants …

Body mass index (BMI), a proxy measure for obesity, is determined by both environmental
(including ethnicity, age, and sex) and genetic factors, with> 400 BMI-associated loci …

Recent studies revealed strong evidence that branched-chain and aromatic amino acids
(BCAAs and AAAs) are closely associated with the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in …

Chronic kidney disease (CKD), impairment of kidney function, is a serious public health
problem, and the assessment of genetic factors influencing kidney function has substantial …
