Multi-trait discovery and fine-mapping of lipid loci in 125,000 individuals of African ancestry

Abstract Most genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for lipid traits focus on the separate analysis of lipid traits. Moreover, there are limited GWASs evaluating the genetic variants associated with multiple lipid traits in African ancestry. To further identify and localize loci with pleiotropic ef...
