Chunk #58 — Methods — Additional Replication through Further Follow-Up Using In Silico Results from the CHARGE Consortium — Studies, phenotypes, and genotypes
The CHARGE consortium consisted of 31,375 individuals from 8 studies informative for WC, though two studies overlapped with our stage 2a studies (the Erasmus Rucphen Family Study (ERF) and the Rotterdam Study (ERGO), (up to 6,702 individuals) which were included in both CHARGE and stage 2 data, but which are counted only once in the overall meta-analysis.
