What a great week at the #EASD2025! Inspiring science and proud to see the many FinnDiane presentations, including the early career awardee Anniina!

Congratulations to Anniina Tynjälä for winning a best early career abstract at #EASD2025 for her work on the genetic background of arterial stiffness in type 1 diabetes

See our study on HMXO1 GTn repeat and heme oxogenase-1 concentrations in #FinnDiane participants with #T1D, collaboration with Lakkisto Lab! HMOX1 LL genotype was associated with cardiac events and mortality in men with #T1D, but not in women. #FolkhälsanResearch @finndiane.bsky.social rdcu.be/eBh3i

Heme oxygenase-1 polymorphisms associate with ischemic cardiac complications and all-cause mortality in type 1 diabetes

I'm so tickled the new metabolite QTL study from
@erkkavalo.bsky.social,
@niinasandholm.bsky.social and others cites my EGEA collection

This is a collection of all my PUBLISHED causal gene annotations. I hope to be adding to this soon.

Genome-wide characterization of 54 urinary metabolites reveals molecular impact of kidney function - Nature Communications

Here, the authors identified genetic variants associated with urinary metabolites in 8,011 individuals. Further causal analysis suggested estimated kidney filtration rate (eGFR) affected 13 metabolite...

Our GWAS on urine metabolomics revealed novel genes and pathways affecting urine metabolites and evaluated the role of kidney function. Great collaboration between FinnDiane Study, Generation Scotland and the VIKING STUDY! rdcu.be/d5oZQ
