Genome-wide association study in Chinese cohort identifies one novel hypospadias risk associated locus at 12q13.13.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Hypospadias risk-associated gene variants have been reported in populations of European descent using genome-wide association studies (GWASs). There is little known at present about any possible hypospadias risk associations in Han Chinese populations. METHODS:To systematically investigate hypospadias risk-associated gene variants in Chinese patients, we performed the first GWAS in a Han Chinese cohort consisting of 197 moderate-severe hypospadias cases and 933 unaffected controls. Suggestive loci (p?
