The paper integrates GWAS meta-analysis with human brain cell mapping to identify genetic loci and cell types involved in tinnitus, implicating the amygdala and midbrain.

This study tracks vaginal microbiota changes in Italian women across menstrual phases, finding Lactobacillus iners as dominant and highlighting population-specific patterns and hormonal associations.

The paper investigates the association between polymorphic transposable elements (TEs) and behavioral traits and BMI in six Italian genetic isolates, finding significant links to health-related phenotypes.

This study identifies genetic signals associated with age at menarche, highlights genes involved in pubertal development, and links reproductive timing to later life disease risk.

This study identifies 43 genomic loci associated with reproductive success in 785,604 individuals, showing ongoing natural selection at the FADS locus.

This study identifies 15 common and 9 low-frequency protein-coding variants associated with body fat distribution, implicating novel genes related to lipid homeostasis and type 2 diabetes.

This study analyzes the genetic structure of six Central Asian populations along the Silk Road, revealing admixture patterns and migration events linked to historical expansions.
