Heid I, Jackson A, Randall J, Winkler T, Qi L, Steinthorsdottir V, et al.
Nat Genet . 2010 Oct; 42(11):949-60. PMID: 20935629
Waist-hip ratio (WHR) is a measure of body fat distribution and a predictor of metabolic consequences independent of overall adiposity. WHR is heritable, but few genetic variants influencing this trait...

Lango Allen H, Estrada K, Lettre G, Berndt S, Weedon M, Rivadeneira F, et al.
Nature . 2010 Oct; 467(7317):832-8. PMID: 20881960
Most common human traits and diseases have a polygenic pattern of inheritance: DNA sequence variants at many genetic loci influence the phenotype. Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified more than...

Morris J, Randall J, Maller J, Barrett J
Bioinformatics . 2010 May; 26(14):1786-7. PMID: 20507892
Summary: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS), which produce huge volumes of data, are now being carried out by many groups around the world, creating a need for user-friendly tools for data...

Lindgren C, Heid I, Randall J, Lamina C, Steinthorsdottir V, Qi L, et al.
PLoS Genet . 2009 Jun; 5(6):e1000508. PMID: 19557161
To identify genetic loci influencing central obesity and fat distribution, we performed a meta-analysis of 16 genome-wide association studies (GWAS, N = 38,580) informative for adult waist circumference (WC) and...

Willer C, Speliotes E, Loos R, Li S, Lindgren C, Heid I, et al.
Nat Genet . 2008 Dec; 41(1):25-34. PMID: 19079261
Common variants at only two loci, FTO and MC4R, have been reproducibly associated with body mass index (BMI) in humans. To identify additional loci, we conducted meta-analysis of 15 genome-wide...

Loos R, Lindgren C, Li S, Wheeler E, Zhao J, Prokopenko I, et al.
Nat Genet . 2008 May; 40(6):768-75. PMID: 18454148
To identify common variants influencing body mass index (BMI), we analyzed genome-wide association data from 16,876 individuals of European descent. After previously reported variants in FTO, the strongest association signal...
