Childhood Hearing Loss Symptoms, Severity Informed by Adult Polygenic Risk Score
Using data from two Australian cohorts, researchers found that a PRS for hearing loss in adults could offer clues to childhood hearing loss risk and severity.
Individuals at enhanced polygenic risk of high systolic blood pressure had increased treatment resistance risk and less pronounced response to chlorthalidone in a new study.
Sepsis Study Untangles Genetic Variants, Regulatory Features Behind High-Risk Subgroup
With genotyping and gene expression data for adult sepsis patients enrolled over more than a decade, researchers explored genetic variation and regulation behind the condition.
Breast Cancer Contributors Uncovered in African Ancestry-Focused Analyses
Newly identified breast cancer risk loci, including subtype-related risk sites, led to an improved breast cancer polygenic risk score in African ancestry individuals.
Telomere Length in White Blood Cells Linked to Malaria Parasite Exposure in Sub-Saharan Africa
Genetic and environmental factors contributed to leukocyte telomere length, which was shorter in regions with the malaria-causing Plasmodium falciparum.
