Genome-wide association studies are being conducted to identify genetic risk factors for various diseases and conditions. These studies have been applied to a range of conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, intracranial aneurysm, dementia, hyperuricemia, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, refractive error, and pediatric acute myeloid leukemia. The research aims to uncover key genetic loci and credible genes associated with these conditions, with some studies incorporating multi-ancestry analyses and traditional medicine approaches to enhance genetic discovery.
