To evaluate the shared genetic etiology of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and coronary heart disease (CHD), we conducted a genome-wide, multi-ancestry study of genetic variation for both diseases in up to 265,678 subjects for T2D and 260,365 subjects for CHD. We identify 16 previously unreported loci for T2D...

BACKGROUND: Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) improve prediction of the development of type 2 diabetes over the use of clinical risk factors alone; however, they perform poorly in populations of non-European ancestry, limiting their global clinical utility. We aimed to deliver comprehensive and rigorousl...

<strong>ABSTRACT</strong> A significant cyclic sesquiterpenoid known as Zerumbone was extracted from <em>Zingiber roseum</em> using the volume liquid chromatographic (VLC) technique. It’s a naturally occurring phytochemical having a variety of physiological properties, including antioxidant, anti-ul...
