Genetic susceptibility for autoimmune diseases and white blood cell count
Abstract Some autoimmune (AI) conditions affect white blood cell (WBC) counts. Whether a genetic predisposition to AI disease associates with WBC counts in populations expected to have low numbers of AI cases is not known. We developed genetic instruments for 7 AI diseases using genome-wide associat...
