Joint models reveal genetic architecture of transitions between pubertal stages and their association with BMI in a Latino population

Lucas Vicuña, Esteban Barrientos, Valeria Leiva-Yamaguchi…·S. Eyheramendy

The paper identifies genetic variants associated with pubertal stage transitions and BMI using joint models in a Latino cohort, finding 43 novel associations and links between Native American ancestry and earlier Tanner 2 stage onset in boys.

New insights from GWAS on longitudinal and cross-sectional BMI and related phenotypes in admixed children with Native American and European ancestries

Lucas Vicuña, Esteban Barrientos, Tomás Norambuena…·S. Eyheramendy

This study conducts GWAS on BMI and related traits in admixed Chilean children, identifying genetic variants associated with BMI and age at adiposity rebound, and highlighting differences by Native American ancestry.
