The paper identifies CR1 variants as a risk factor for FSGS across diverse populations through a case-control study and variant analysis.

The paper analyzes genetic and phenotypic data from 4,145 Russians to explore ethnic diversity and genetic associations, finding enrichment of Finnish-specific variants and providing a GWAS database.

This study identifies population-specific protein-truncating variants and introduces LoFfeR, a tool that improves the annotation of low-confidence loss-of-function alleles by filtering more variants with the same false positive rate.

This study uses GWAS summary statistics to identify pleiotropic loci across the human phenome, revealing shared genetic components and novel genes involved in complex traits.
