Project

MAGIC (the Meta-Analyses of Glucose and Insulin-related traits Consortium) represents a collaborative effort to combine data from multiple GWAS to identify additional loci that impact on glycemic and metabolic traits.

 

 

Experiment summary

This study is part of a trans-ancestry meta-analysis of genetic associations for 4 glycemic traits in 281,410 subjects. This dataset consists of genetic associations for 3 of these traits in 9,525 subjects of South Asian ancestry.

Additional single-ancestry meta-analyses are available in the Portal in these datasets:
