Exploring genetic structures and shared sites between alcohol, cheese intake, and inflammatory bowel disease by Zhifang Huang, Weichao Yuan

“…Ultimately, shared loci between the two traits were identified via conjFDR analysis and multi-trait analysis of GWAS (MTAG).ResultsSubstantial overall correlations were noted at the genome-wide level between alcohol and cheese intake and both IBD and Crohn’s disease (CD), whereas the association with ulcerative colitis (UC) was of lesser significance. In the local genetic analysis, chromosome 16 emerged as a key region implicated in the relationship between alcohol and cheese intake and IBD (including both CD and UC). …”
