This is the start of a new focus of study. Let's go get it. Up next, @emilyvansyoc.bsky.social has a story on evolutionary aspects of gut fungal communities in humans and our closest ancestors. Until then, it is fungal fun with this this GWAS and PheWAS:

Gut fungi are associated with human genetic variation and disease risk
In contrast to decades of research on gut bacteria, human genetic determinants of the gut fungal community (mycobiome) remain understudied. This investigation presents the first GWAS on the number and...

Finally, we performed a phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) in FinnGen to systematically assess whether our IL-6 genetic proxy is associated with any additional outcomes beyond those already studied.

Our trisomy work is now online! 🚀

Got curious after reading our short PheWAS paper? 👀
Catch me 🌠 & my talk 🎤 this October at #ASHG25 in Boston!

Yes, I am still endlessly curious about sex chromosome aneuploidies - whether it's somatic (X/Y loss) or germline (trisomies)!! 💘

📄 #PheWAS of male and female sex chromosome trisomies in 1.5 million participants of MVP, FinnGen, and UK Biobank
@finngen.bsky.social @ukbiobank.bsky.social
Phenome-wide association study of male and female sex chromosome trisomies in 1.5 million participants of MVP, FinnGen, and UK Biobank
We examined disease associations for sex chromosome trisomies (SCTs) by performing a phenome-wide association study in 2,769 individuals with SCT (47,XXY: 1,319; 47,XYY: 1,108; and 47,XXX: 342). Many ...

The sex-linked ornaments instead show loci of very large effect at copy number variants. The locus of largest effect for orange pattern is at texim, a gene with many duplications to the Y. For black, the largest effect loci is prex1, an X-linked CNV with a know role in NCC migration.

Using data from over 330,000 UK Biobank participants, we:

- Built a polygenic risk score for vascular dementia

- Ran a large-scale, age-stratified PheWAS across 9,000+ traits

- Followed up key associations using two-sample Mendelian randomization

This paper used a PheWAS-type approach, examining all common conditions that could be affected by GLP1Ragonists. This approach could be applied broadly.

The study applied a Phenome-Wide Association Study (PheWAS) method to data from six cohorts of diverse ancestries, including European, African, East Asian, and Hispanic populations, to explore the links between genetically predicted height and various diseases.

Phenome-wide association studies (PheWAS) are a powerful tool for uncovering drug repurposing opportunities and unexpected side effects of novel targets📊 🧬

The best open-access resources for PheWAS analyses👇

Exactly! That's the danger.

All the lead snps in their phewas site, the supplementary tables and extracted to the gwas catalog are affected.

PheWAS can be very useful for drug development, especially for novel targets❗️

The derived signals can be used to inform selection to phase 2/3 trials, safety endpoints in phase 3, and guide development towards new indications.
