Galectin-3, a β-galactosidase binding lectin, known to be involved in inflammatory processes may be associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) incidence. We examined the prospective association between plasma galectin-3 and incident AAA in 9,704 participants of the Atherosclerosis Risk...

Postprandial lipemia and the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke: the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study.

BMJ open diabetes research & care

Kats D, Sharrett AR, Ginsberg HN, Nambi V, Ballantyne CM, Hoogeveen RC, Heiss G.
PMID: 28191321
BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care. 2017 Feb 01;5(1):e000335. doi: 10.1136/bmjdrc-2016-000335. eCollection 2017.

OBJECTIVE: Excessive levels of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during postprandial lipemia (PPL) have been reported to be atherogenic. However, it is unclear whether the degree of PPL independently predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD) given the scarcity of longitudinal data with standardised measures...

Double genomic control is not effective to correct for population stratification in meta-analysis for genome-wide association studies.

Frontiers in genetics

Wang S, Chen W, Chen X, Hu F, Archer KJ, Liu HN, Sun S, Gao G.
PMID: 23269928
Front Genet. 2012 Dec 24;3:300. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2012.00300. eCollection 2012.

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) has become a useful tool to identify genetic variants that are associated with complex human diseases. To control spurious associations between genetic variants and disease that are caused by population stratification, double genomic...

GxEsum: a novel approach to estimate the phenotypic variance explained by genome-wide GxE interaction based on GWAS summary statistics for biobank-scale data.

Genome biology

Shin J, Lee SH.
