Abstract
Hispanic/Latinos have been underrepresented in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for anthropometric traits despite their notable anthropometric variability, ancestry proportions, and high burden of growth stunting and overweight/obesity. To address this knowledge gap, we analyzed densely imputed genetic data in a sample of Hispanic/Latino adults to identify and fine-map genetic variants associated with body mass index (BMI), height, and BMI-adjusted waist-to-hip ratio (WHRadjBMI). We conducted a GWAS of 18 studies/consortia as part of the Hispanic/Latino Anthropometry (HISLA) Consortium (stage 1, n = 59,771) and generalized our findings in 9 additional studies (stage 2, n = 10,538). We conducted a trans-ancestral GWAS with summary statistics from HISLA stage 1 and existing consortia of European and African ancestries. In our HISLA stage 1 + 2 analyses, we discovered one BMI locus, as well as two BMI signals and another height signal each within established anthropometric loci. In our trans-ancestral meta-analysis, we discovered three BMI loci, one height locus, and one WHRadjBMI locus. We also identified 3 secondary signals for BMI, 28 for height, and 2 for WHRadjBMI in established loci. We show that 336 known BMI, 1,177 known height, and 143 known WHRadjBMI (combined) SNPs demonstrated suggestive transferability (nominal significance and effect estimate directional consistency) in Hispanic/Latino adults. Of these, 36 BMI, 124 height, and 11 WHRadjBMI SNPs were significant after trait-specific Bonferroni correction. Trans-ancestral meta-analysis of the three ancestries showed a small-to-moderate impact of uncorrected population stratification on the resulting effect size estimates. Our findings demonstrate that future studies may also benefit from leveraging diverse ancestries and differences in linkage disequilibrium patterns to discover novel loci and additional signals with less residual population stratification.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness among healthy adults by race and ethnicity and to identify determinants of RNFL thickness. DESIGN Population-based cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS Data from 6133 individuals (11 585 eyes) from 3 population-based studies in Los Angeles County, California, 50 years of age or older and of self-described African, Chinese, or Latin American ancestry. METHODS We measured RNFL thickness and optic nerve head parameters using the Cirrus HD-OCT 4000. Multivariate linear mixed regression was used to evaluate factors associated with RNFL thickness among participants without ocular diseases. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Determinants and modifiers of RNFL thickness. RESULTS The mean age of the participants was 60.1 years (standard deviation, 7.4 years). Black Americans showed the lowest RNFL thickness and smallest cup-to-disc ratio (CDR), and Chinese Americans showed the largest CDR and disc area after adjusting for age and gender (all P < 0.05). Per each 10-year older age group, the average RNFL thickness was 2.5 μm (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-3.1 μm), 2.8 μm (95% CI, 2.3-3.3 μm), and 3.5 μm (95% CI, 2.9-4.1 μm) thinner for Black, Chinese, and Latino Americans, respectively (age trend P < 0.05 and interaction P = 0.041). Black Americans compared with Chinese Americans, older age, male gender, hypertension, diabetes, greater axial length (AL), bigger disc area, and lower scan signal strength were associated with thinner average RNFL. Race, age, AL, disc area, and scan signal strength consistently were associated with RNFL thickness in all quadrants, whereas gender, hypertension, and diabetes were associated with RNFL thickness in select quadrants. Age and race explained the greatest proportion of variance of RNFL thickness. CONCLUSIONS Clinically important differences in RNFL thickness are present in healthy adults 50 years of age or older from different racial and ethnic groups of the same age, with the thinnest measures observed in Black Americans. This difference remains after accounting for disc size and AL. Furthermore, age-related RNFL thinning differs by race and ethnicity. Longitudinal studies are needed to verify our findings and to assess the influence of race and ethnicity in the clinical application of RNFL thickness.

Abstract
Background The incidence of pediatric brain tumors varies by race and ethnicity, but these relationships may be confounded by socioeconomic status (SES). In this study, the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER) database was evaluated for associations between race/ethnicity and pediatric glioma and medulloblastoma risk with adjustment for SES. Methods Pediatric glioma and medulloblastoma cases from the SEER database (years: 2000–2016) were included. Differences in incidence rates by ethnicity, sex, age, and SES-related factors were evaluated by calculation of age-adjusted incidence rates (AAIRs) and annual percent change (APC). SES-related factors (percentage without less than high school graduation, median household income, and percentage foreign-born) were derived from the census at the county-level (year: 2000). Multivariable Poisson regression models with adjustment for selected covariates were constructed to evaluate risk factors. Results The highest AAIRs of pediatric glioma were observed among non-Hispanic Whites (AAIR: 2.91 per 100 000, 95%-CI: 2.84–2.99). An increasing incidence of pediatric glioma by calendar time was observed among non-Hispanic Whites and non-Hispanic Blacks (APC: 0.97%, 95%-CI: 0.28–1.68 and APC: 1.59%, 95%-CI: 0.03–3.18, respectively). Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black race/ethnicity was associated with lower risk when compared with non-Hispanic White (incidence rate ratios [IRRs]: 0.66, 95%-CI: 0.63–0.70; and 0.69, 95%-CI: 0.65–0.74, respectively). For medulloblastoma, the highest AAIR was observed for non-Hispanic Whites with a positive APC (1.52%, 95%-CI: 0.15–2.91). Hispanics and non-Hispanic Blacks had statistically significant lower IRRs compared with non-Hispanic Whites (IRRs: 0.83, 95%-CI: 0.73–0.94; and 0.72, 95%-CI: 0.59–0.87, respectively). Conclusion Non-Hispanic White race/ethnicity was associated with higher pediatric glioma and medulloblastoma IRRs in models with adjustments for SES.

Abstract
To identify genetic variants associated with diabetic retinopathy (DR), we performed a large multiethnic genome-wide association study. Discovery included eight European cohorts (n = 3,246) and seven African American cohorts (n = 2,611). We meta-analyzed across cohorts using inverse-variance weighting, with and without liability threshold modeling of glycemic control and duration of diabetes. Variants with a P value <1 × 10-5 were investigated in replication cohorts that included 18,545 European, 16,453 Asian, and 2,710 Hispanic subjects. After correction for multiple testing, the C allele of rs142293996 in an intron of nuclear VCP-like (NVL) was associated with DR in European discovery cohorts (P = 2.1 × 10-9), but did not reach genome-wide significance after meta-analysis with replication cohorts. We applied the Disease Association Protein-Protein Link Evaluator (DAPPLE) to our discovery results to test for evidence of risk being spread across underlying molecular pathways. One protein-protein interaction network built from genes in regions associated with proliferative DR was found to have significant connectivity (P = 0.0009) and corroborated with gene set enrichment analyses. These findings suggest that genetic variation in NVL, as well as variation within a protein-protein interaction network that includes genes implicated in inflammation, may influence risk for DR.

Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency among pregnant women is common. Compelling animal evidence suggests carcinogenic effects of vitamin D deficiency on the brains of offspring; however, the impact of circulating vitamin D [25(OH)D] on childhood brain tumor (CBT) risk has not been previously evaluated. Using linked birth-cancer registry data in Washington State, 247 CBT cases (<15 years at diagnosis; born 1991 or later) were identified. A total of 247 birth year-, sex- and race-matched controls were selected from the remaining birth certificates. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to measure circulating levels of vitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] in neonatal dried blood spots. Overall, no significant associations were observed. However, when stratified by median birth weight (3,458 g), there was evidence of increasing risk of CBT with increasing 25(OH)D3 among children in the higher birth weight category. Compared to the lowest quartile (2.8-7.7 ng/mL), odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the second (7.7-<11.0 ng/mL), third (11.0-<14.7 ng/mL) and fourth (14.7-37.0) quartiles of 25(OH)D3 were 1.7 (1.0-3.3), 2.4 (1.2-4.8) and 2.6 (1.2-5.6), respectively. Among children in the lower birth weight category, there was suggestive evidence of a protective effect: ORs and 95% CIs for the second, third and fourth quartiles were 0.9 (0.4-1.9), 0.7 (0.3-1.4) and 0.6 (0.3-1.3), respectively. Any associations of neonatal vitamin D with CBT may be birth weight-specific, suggesting the possible involvement of insulin-like growth factor 1, circulating levels of which have been associated with vitamin D and accelerated fetal growth.

Abstract
Abstract
Back ground: Identification of the factors that predict response to treatment in breast cancer patients early after diagnosis is important in guiding the treatment strategy. High mammographic density (MD) is a risk factor for breast cancer. However no study has examined the association between change in MD and death in breast cancer survivors. We hypothesized that a short-term change in breast density may be a surrogate biomarker predicting risk of death from breast cancer and all causes.
Methods: We evaluated the relationship between reduction in MD and risk of death from all causes within the Health, Eating, Activity, and Lifestyle (HEAL) Study. In a prospective observational study, we studied 403 women diagnosed with primary invasive breast carcinoma between 1995 and 1998 and followed until death or September 2009. We collected mammograms and prognostic, demographic, and lifestyle factors as well as treatments at the time of diagnosis and two years after the diagnosis was made. Mammograms were digitized and MD was measured on cranio-caudal (CC) images of the unaffected breast using a computer assisted program developed at the University of Toronto. MD reduction (MDR) was evaluated based on two mammograms; the first was taken 12 months before diagnosis, and the second approximately 24 months after diagnosis. MDR was defined as the difference between the MD of these two images (% MDR = % preMD -% postMD). Reduction in MD was categorized into a binary variable as women who had a MDR ≥5% compared to those with less than 5% reduction in MD. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals.
Results: Breast cancer patients with 5% or more reduction in MD were younger (mean age was 55.7 compared to 58.9), more likely to be premenopausal at diagnosis (36.7% compared to 24.0%), and more likely to have a history of oral contraception (73.9% compared to 63.3%). Women with MDR ≥5% were 49% less likely to die from any cause after adjustment for age, BMI, estrogen receptor status, progesterone receptor status, menopausal status at baseline, smoking, stage, tamoxifen use, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and study center (HR=0.51 CI: 0.3-0.86). The results were stronger when we restricted the analysis to women who were premenopausal at diagnosis. When we restricted the analysis to women who had taken tamoxifen a similar direction was observed but the results were not statistically significant.
Conclusion: Result from our data suggests that reduction in mammographic density few years after breast cancer diagnosis may be used as a predictor of overall survival.
