Polygenic risk scores for atrial fibrillation and heart failure and the risk of stroke and dementia.
Brain Commun

Atrial fibrillation and heart failure have both been suggested to increase stroke and dementia risk. However, in observational studies, reversed causation and unmeasured confounding may occur. To mitigate these issues, this study aims to investigate if higher genetic risk for atrial fibrillation and heart failure increases dementia and stroke risk.

CRISPR-Cas technologies have drastically revolutionized genetic engineering and also dramatically changed the potential for treating inherited disorders. The potential to correct genetic mutations responsible for numerous hereditary disorders from single-gene disorders to complex polygenic diseases through precise DNA editing is feasible. The tactic now employed in CRISPR-Cas systems for treating inherited disorders is the usage of particular guide RNAs to target and edit disease-causing mutations in the patient's genome.

Pitfalls in performing genome-wide association studies on ratio traits.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are often performed on ratios composed of a numerator trait divided by a denominator trait. Examples include body mass index (BMI) and the waist-to-hip ratio, among many others. Explicitly or implicitly, the goal of forming the ratio is typically to adjust for an association between the numerator and denominator.

Background: Genetic variants may confer risk for depression by modulating brain structure and function; evidence has underscored the key role of the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC) in depression. We sought to examine how the resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) of the sgACC was associated with polygenic risk for depression in a subclinical population.
Methods: Following published protocols, we computed seed-based whole-brain sgACC rsFC and calculated polygenic risk scores (PRS) using data from healthy young adults from the Human Connectome Project.
