Investigating gene-diet interactions impacting the association between macronutrient intake and glycemic traits

The paper identifies a gene-diet interaction modifying the association between macronutrient intake and glycemic traits, highlighting challenges in detecting such interactions due to measurement error and sample size.

Whole Genome Sequence Association Analysis of Fasting Glucose and Fasting Insulin Levels in Diverse Cohorts from the NHLBI TOPMed Program

The paper performs whole genome sequence association analysis of fasting glucose and insulin levels in diverse cohorts, identifying 22 significant variants across 16 gene regions, including rare variants.

Rare Non-coding Variation Identified by Large Scale Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Unexplained Heritability of Type 2 Diabetes: Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) Program

The paper identifies rare non-coding variants from whole genome sequencing in the TOPMed program, showing they contribute significantly to type 2 diabetes heritability.

Impact of rare and common genetic variants on diabetes diagnosis by hemoglobin A1c in multi-ancestry cohorts: The Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine Program.

The paper identifies genetic variants affecting HbA1c levels in multi-ancestry cohorts, showing ancestry-specific impacts on diabetes diagnosis via HbA1c.
