    Physical activity (PA) may modify the genetic effects that give rise to increased risk of obesity. To identify adiposity loci whose effects are modified by PA, we performed genome-wide interaction meta-analyses of BMI and BMI-adjusted waist circumference ...

    Global monitoring of antimicrobial resistance based on metagenomics analyses of urban sewage 
    Hendriksen, Rene S.; Thorsteinsdottir, Thorunn Rafnar (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-03-08)
    Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, but obtaining representative data on AMR for healthy human populations is difficult. Here, we use metagenomic analysis of untreated sewage to characterize the bacterial resistome ...

    Fu, Weiqi; Chaiboonchoe, Amphun; Dohai, Bushra; Sultana, Mehar; Baffour, Kristos; Alzahmi, Amnah; Weston, James; Al Khairy, Dina; Daakour, Sarah; Jaiswal, Ashish; Nelson, David R.; Mystikou, Alexandra; Brynjolfsson, Sigurdur; Salehi-Ashtiani, Kourosh (Elsevier BV, 2020-08-21)
    Surface colonization allows diatoms, a dominant group of phytoplankton in oceans, to adapt to harsh marine environments while mediating biofoulings to human-made underwater facilities. The regulatory pathways underlying diatom surface colonization, ...

    GWAS and colocalization analyses implicate carotid intima-media thickness and carotid plaque loci in cardiovascular outcomes 
    Smith, Albert Vernon; Gudnason, Vilmundur; Grétarsdóttir, Sólveig; Thorleifsson, Gudmar; Thorsteinsdottir, Unnur; Stefansson, Kari (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-12)
    Carotid artery intima media thickness (cIMT) and carotid plaque are measures of subclinical atherosclerosis associated with ischemic stroke and coronary heart disease (CHD). Here, we undertake meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in ...

    Bone area is one measure of bone size that is easily derived from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans. In a GWA study of DXA bone area of the hip and lumbar spine (N ≥ 28,954), we find thirteen independent association signals at twelve loci ...
