Abstract
Summary of the research findings
The genetic risk factors for susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are still largely unknown. Additional genetic variants are likely to be identified by genome-wide association studies in larger cohorts or specific subgroups. We sought to identify risk loci for moderate to severe and severe COPD with data from several cohort studies.
5,812 European ancestry cases, 3,955 European ancestry controls, 821 African American cases, 1,749 African American controls
