Genetic Association and Transferability for Urinary Albumin-Creatinine Ratio as a Marker of Kidney Disease in four Sub-Saharan African Populations and non-continental Individuals of African Ancestry

Jean‐Tristan Brandenburg, Wenlong Carl Chen, Palwendé Romuald Boua…·Michèle Ramsay

This study conducts a GWAS on urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio in Sub-Saharan African and non-resident African-ancestry populations, identifying two genome-wide significant loci and highlighting limited transferability of polygenic scores across populations.
