	abstract = {Large-scale whole-genome sequencing studies have enabled the analysis of rare variants (RVs) associated with complex phenotypes. Commonly used RV association tests have limited scope to leverage variant functions. We propose STAAR (variant-set test for association using annotation information), a scalable and powerful RV association test method that effectively incorporates both variant categories and multiple complementary annotations using a dynamic weighting scheme. For the latter, we introduce {\textquoteright}annotation principal components{\textquoteright}, multidimensional summaries of in silico variant annotations. STAAR accounts for population structure and relatedness and is scalable for analyzing very large cohort and biobank whole-genome sequencing studies of continuous and dichotomous traits. We applied STAAR to identify RVs associated with four lipid traits in 12,316 discovery and 17,822 replication samples from the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine Program. We discovered and replicated new RV associations, including disruptive missense RVs of NPC1L1 and an intergenic region near APOC1P1 associated with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.},

	title = {{Genetic Determinants of Electrocardiographic P-wave Duration and Relation to Atrial Fibrillation},
	journal = {Circ Genom Precis Med},
	year = {2020},
	month = {Aug},
	abstract = {Background - The P-wave duration (PWD) is an electrocardiographic (ECG) measurement that represents cardiac conduction in the atria. Shortened or prolonged PWD is associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). We used exome chip data to examine the associations between common and rare variants with PWD. Methods - Fifteen studies comprising 64,440 individuals (56,943 European, 5,681 African, 1,186 Hispanic, 630 Asian), and  230,000 variants were used to examine associations with maximum PWD across the 12-lead ECG. Meta-analyses summarized association results for common variants; gene-based burden and SKAT tests examined low-frequency variant-PWD associations. Additionally, we examined the associations between PWD loci and AF using previous AF GWAS. Results - We identified 21 common and low-frequency genetic loci (14 novel) associated with maximum PWD, including several AF loci (TTN, CAND2, SCN10A, PITX2, CAV1, SYNPO2L, SOX5, TBX5, MYH6, RPL3L). The top variants at known sarcomere genes (TTN, MYH6) were associated with longer PWD and increased AF risk. However, top variants at other loci (e.g., PITX2 and SCN10A) were associated with longer PWD but lower AF risk. Conclusions - Our results highlight multiple novel genetic loci associated with PWD, and underscore the shared mechanisms of atrial conduction and AF. Prolonged PWD may be an endophenotype for several different genetic mechanisms of AF.},

	abstract = {Alterations in electrocardiographic (ECG) intervals are well-known markers for arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk. While the genetics of arrhythmia syndromes have been studied, relations between electrocardiographic intervals and rare genetic variation at a population level are poorly understood.\ Using a discovery sample of 29 000 individuals with whole-genome sequencing from Trans-Omics in Precision Medicine and replication in nearly 100 000 with whole-exome sequencing from the UK Biobank and MyCode, we examined associations between low-frequency and rare coding variants with 5 routinely measured electrocardiographic traits (RR, P-wave, PR, and QRS intervals and corrected QT interval).\ ), a marker of SCD risk. Incomplete penetrance of such deleterious variation was common as over 70\% of carriers had normal electrocardiographic intervals.\ Our findings indicate that large-scale high-depth sequence data and electrocardiographic analysis identifies monogenic arrhythmia susceptibility genes and rare variants with large effects. Known pathogenic variation in conventional arrhythmia and SCD genes exhibited incomplete penetrance and accounted for only a small fraction of marked electrocardiographic interval prolongation.},

Effect sizes, associated regions and gene prioritization are similar across ancestries, indicating that reduced prediction accuracy is likely to be explained by linkage disequilibrium and differences in allele frequency within associated regions. Finally, we show that the relevant biological pathways are detectable with smaller sample sizes than are needed to implicate causal genes and variants. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive map of specific genomic regions that contain the vast majority of common height-associated variants. Although this map is saturated for populations of European ancestry, further research is needed to achieve equivalent saturation in other ancestries.},

	abstract = {Accelerated decline in lung function contributes to the development of chronic respiratory disease. Despite evidence for a genetic component, few genetic associations with lung function decline have been identified.\ To evaluate genome-wide associations and putative downstream functionality of genetic variants with lung function decline in diverse general population cohorts.\ /FVC) in participants across six cohorts in the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology (CHARGE) consortium and the UK Biobank. Genotypes were imputed to TOPMed (CHARGE cohorts) or Haplotype Reference Consortium (HRC) (UK Biobank) reference panels, and GWAS analyses used generalized estimating equation models with robust standard error. Models were stratified by cohort, ancestry, and sex, and adjusted for important lung function confounders and genotype principal components. Results were combined in cross-ancestry and ancestry-specific meta-analyses. Selected top variants were tested for replication in two independent COPD-enriched cohorts.\ ) with consistent associations across ancestries or decline phenotypes. Annotation class analysis revealed significant enrichment of several regulatory processes for corticosteroid biosynthesis and metabolism. Drug repurposing analysis identified 43 approved compounds targeting eight of the implicated 38 genes.\ Our multi-ancestry GWAS meta-analyses identified numerous genetic loci associated with lung function decline. These findings contribute knowledge to the genetic architecture of lung function decline, provide evidence for a role of endogenous corticosteroids in the etiology of lung function decline, and identify drug targets that merit further study for potential repurposing to slow lung function decline and treat lung disease.},
