Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease accompanied by both local and systemic comorbidities. Genetic factors play a role in the development of IPF and certain associated comorbidities. Nevertheless, it is uncertain whether there are shared genetic factors underlying IPF and these comorbidities. To bridge this knowledge gap, we conducted a systematic investigation into the shared genetic...

Epidemiological studies demonstrate an association between migraine and chronic kidney disease (CKD), while the genetic basis underlying the phenotypic association has not been investigated. We aimed to help avoid unnecessary interventions in individuals with migraine through the investigation of phenotypic and genetic relationships underlying migraine, CKD, and kidney function. We first evaluated phenotypic associations using...
