Abstract

Several risk factors for Crohn's disease have been identified in recent genome-wide association studies. To advance gene discovery further, we combined data from three studies on Crohn's disease (a total of 3,230 cases and 4,829 controls) and carried out replication in 3,664 independent cases with a mixture of population-based and family-based controls. The results strongly confirm 11 previously reported loci and provide genome-wide significant evidence for 21 additional loci, including the regions containing STAT3, JAK2, ICOSLG, CDKAL1 and ITLN1. The expanded molecular understanding of the basis of this disease offers promise for informed therapeutic development.

  • The G allele of rs744166 in STAT3 is associated with increased risk in MS and decreased risk in Crohn's disease.

    “One example is rs744166 (located in an intron of the STAT3 gene on chromosome 17): the G allele is associated with increased risk in MS38 and decreased risk in Crohn's disease.71”

    From Genome‐wide association studies of multiple sclerosis (2018) · cites this paper as [71]

  • Using a standard liability threshold model, the previously reported loci combined with the new loci discovered in this study explain ∼39% of the total variance (or 55% of the heritability) of advanced AMD.

    “Using a standard liability threshold model (25), the previously reported loci combined with the new loci discovered in this study explain ∼39% of the total variance (or 55% of the heritability) of advanced AMD.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
