A genome-wide association study identifies 5 loci associated with frozen shoulder and implicates diabetes as a causal risk factor.

Frozen shoulder is a painful condition that often requires surgery and affects up to 5% of individuals aged 40-60 years. Little is known about the causes of the condition, but diabetes is a strong risk factor. To begin to understand the biological mechanisms involved, we aimed to identify genetic va...

description Frozen shoulder is a painful condition that often requires surgery and affects up to 5% of individuals aged 40-60 years.

We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of frozen shoulder in the UK Biobank using data from 10,104 cases identified from inpatient, surgical and primary care codes.
