Associations between common variants in iron-related genes with haematological traits in populations of African ancestry
Background Large genome-wide association (GWA) studies of European ancestry individuals have identified multiple genetic variants influencing iron status. Studies on the generalizability of these associations to African ancestry populations have been limited. These studies are important given intere...
