Severe osteoarthritis of the hand associates with common variants within the ALDH1A2 gene and with rare variants at 1p31.

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and is a major cause of pain and disability in the elderly. To search for sequence variants that confer risk of osteoarthritis of the hand, we carried out a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in subjects with severe hand osteoarthritis, using var...
