Intensive blood-glucose control with sulphonylureas or insulin compared with conventional treatment and risk of complications in patients with type 2 diabetes (UKPDS 33)

R C Turner, +398 more
- 12 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of intensive blood-glucose control with either sulphonylurea or insulin and conventional treatment on the risk of microvascular and macrovascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes in a randomised controlled trial were compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study of 14,000 cases of seven common diseases and 3,000 shared controls

Paul Burton, +195 more
- 07 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: This study has demonstrated that careful use of a shared control group represents a safe and effective approach to GWA analyses of multiple disease phenotypes; generated a genome-wide genotype database for future studies of common diseases in the British population; and shown that, provided individuals with non-European ancestry are excluded, the extent of population stratification in theBritish population is generally modest.
Journal Article

Tight blood pressure control and risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes: UKPDS 38

M R Stearne, +262 more
- 12 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: Tight blood pressure control in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes achieves a clinically important reduction in the risk of deaths related to diabetes, complications related to Diabetes, progression of diabetic retinopathy, and deterioration in visual acuity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tight blood pressure control and risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes: UKPDS 38. UK Prospective Diabetes Study Group.

Stearne, +263 more
- 01 Jan 1998 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared tight control of blood pressure with less tight control aiming at a blood pressure of <150/85 mm Hg with the use of an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril or a beta blocker atenolol as main treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bayesian test for colocalisation between pairs of genetic association studies using summary statistics.

TL;DR: A novel statistical methodology to assess whether two association signals are consistent with a shared causal variant and the ability to derive the output statistics from single SNP summary statistics, making it possible to perform systematic meta-analysis type comparisons across multiple GWAS datasets is developed.
