HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Thomas W. Winkler from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the research work: Genome-wide meta-analysis of 241,258 adults accounting for smoking behaviour identifies novel loci for obesity traits, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 26/04/2017
  • what: The authors show consistent direction of effect for all identified loci and significance for 18 novel and for 5 interaction loci in an independent study sample. By accounting for smoking status, the authors focus both on genetic variants observed through their main effects and GxSMK effects to increase the understanding of their action . . .
