Effect of host genetics on the gut microbiome in 7,738 participants of the Dutch Microbiome Project
Host genetics are known to influence the gut microbiome, yet their role remains poorly
understood. To robustly characterize these effects, we performed a genome-wide …

Composite trait Mendelian randomization reveals distinct metabolic and lifestyle consequences of differences in body shape
Obesity is a major risk factor for a wide range of cardiometabolic diseases, however the
impact of specific aspects of body morphology remains poorly understood. We combined the …

Mendelian randomization identifies the potential causal impact of dietary patterns on circulating blood metabolites
Nutrition plays an important role in the development and progress of several health
conditions, but the exact mechanism is often still unclear. Blood metabolites are likely …

Large-scale genome-wide association study of food liking reveals genetic determinants and genetic correlations with distinct neurophysiological traits
Variable preferences for different foods are among the main determinants of their intake and
are influenced by many factors, including genetics. Despite considerable twins' heritability …
