This study identifies genetic risk factors associated with severe psoriasis and shows that polygenic risk scores can predict severe disease outcomes better than traditional risk factors.

This study identifies 440 genes/proteins associated with atopic dermatitis severity through multi-omics analyses and highlights four with significant cross-evidence, including CEP85, which may contribute to severity via impaired phagocytosis.

This study identifies 8 novel genetic risk loci for psoriasis and finds genetic correlations with socio-economic status and affective symptoms.

Finnish-enriched low-frequency variants, often coding, underlie many GWAS signals across 1,932 register endpoints in 218,792 Finns; a 15-disease meta-analysis with Estonian and UK biobanks adds 30 unreported associations.
