The paper examines diagnostic transitions and remission in eating disorders using polygenic scores in a Danish cohort, finding significant genetic associations with these outcomes.

The paper identifies five genomic factors explaining most genetic variance across 14 psychiatric disorders and finds shared and disorder-specific genetic signals with distinct biological functions.

This study examines the genetic and clinical associations of adult weight trajectories using EHR data, identifying disease links and genetic risk factors for weight patterns.

This study uses transcriptomic imputation to translate AN GWAS findings into gene expression associations, revealing 47 genes linked to AN and their clinical consequences in a biobank cohort.

Cross-disorder meta-analysis of eight psychiatric GWAS (232,964 cases, 494,162 controls) reports 109 loci shared by two or more disorders and three groups of correlated disorders.

The paper describes the methods and recruitment strategies of the Anorexia Nervosa Genetics Initiative (ANGI), which successfully enrolled 13,364 individuals with AN and controls for genetic research.

This paper reports the first genome-wide significant locus for anorexia nervosa and identifies genetic correlations with psychiatric and metabolic traits.
