Whole genome sequencing in the Middle Eastern Qatari population identifies genetic associations with 45 clinically relevant traits

Clinical laboratory tests play a pivotal role in medical decision making, but little is known about their genetic variability between populations. We report a genome-wide association study with 45 clinically relevant traits from the population of Qatar using a whole genome sequencing approach in a d...
