Identification of 153 new loci associated with heel bone mineral density and functional involvement of GPC6 in osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common disease diagnosed primarily by measurement of bone mineral density (BMD). We undertook a genome-wide association study in 142,487 individuals from the UK Biobank to identify loci associated with BMD estimated by quantitative ultrasound of the heel (“eBMD”).
