Osteoporosis and obesity are two severe complex diseases threatening public health
worldwide. Both diseases are under strong genetic determinants as well as genetically …

Osteoporosis and obesity are two inheritable diseases indexed by low bone mineral density
(BMD) and high body mass index (BMI), and are correlated. Osteoblast cells and adipocyte …

Aiming to uncover a shared genetic basis of abdominal obesity and osteoporosis, we
performed a bivariate GWAS meta-analysis of femoral neck BMD (FNK-BMD) and trunk fat …

Aiming to identify pleiotropic genomic loci for bone mineral density and bone size, we
performed a bivariate GWAS in five discovery samples and replicated in two large-scale …

We performed a GWAS of trochanter and intertrochanter bone mineral density (BMD) in the
Framingham Heart Study and replicated in three independent studies. Our results identified …

In the present study, aiming to identify loci associated with osteoporosis, we conducted a
joint association study of 2 independent genome-wide association meta-analyses of femoral …

Context: A genome-wide bivariate analysis was conducted for body fat mass (BFM) and
bone mineral density (BMD) in a large Caucasian sample. We found some quantitative trait …

Aiming to identify genomic variants associated with osteoporosis, we performed a genome-
wide association meta-analysis of bone mineral density (BMD) at Ward's triangle of the hip …

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have reproducibly associated variants within
intergenic regions of 1p36. 12 locus with osteoporosis, but the functional roles underlying …

Context Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have been successful in identifying loci
associated with osteoporosis and obesity. However, the findings explain only a small …
