Large genome-wide association study identifies three novel risk variants for restless legs syndrome

Didriksen, Nawaz, et al. identify three novel genetic risk variants for restless legs syndrome and confirm 19 out of 20 previously reported variants through a genome-wide association meta-analysis including nearly half a million individuals. Using expression QTL analysis, they also find that a subse...

Sumario:Didriksen, Nawaz, et al. identify three novel genetic risk variants for restless legs syndrome and confirm 19 out of 20 previously reported variants through a genome-wide association meta-analysis including nearly half a million individuals. Using expression QTL analysis, they also find that a subset of these loci may have a causal effect on nearby gene expression.
