Human organ structure and function are important endophenotypes for clinical outcomes. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous common variants associated with phenotypes derived from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain and body. However, the role of rare protein-coding variations affecting organ size and function is largely unknown.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is a powerful adoptive immunotherapy against blood cancers, but the therapeutic effect was not efficient enough on solid tumors. B cells have been reported to play a critical role in regulating memory T differentiation and cytotoxic T development. However, as of yet the influence of such B cells on CAR T cells has not been discussed.

To evaluate the genetics of chronic nonsuppurative otitis media (OM). We performed a genome-wide association study of 429,599 individuals included in the FinnGen study using three different case definitions: combined chronic nonsuppurative OM (7034 cases) (included serous and mucous chronic OM), mucous chronic OM (5953 cases), and secretory chronic OM (1689 cases). Individuals without otitis media were used as controls (417,745 controls).
