Hoe helpt de studie van erfelijke kenmerken ons om het risico op ziekten te begrijpen?
De studie van erfelijke kenmerken speelt een cruciale rol in het begrijpen van het risico op verschillende ziekten, met name die welke het musculoskeletale systeem aantasten. Genetische factoren beïnvloeden belangrijke aspecten van bot- en spiergezondheid, zoals botmineraaldichtheid (BMD), botkwaliteit, spiermassa en kracht. Door erfelijke kenmerken te onderzoeken, kunnen onderzoekers mensen identificeren die genetisch vatbaar zijn […]
GEFOS
The GEFOS study is a project aimed at identifying genetic determinants of musculoskeletal and aging-related traits. It focuses on genetic risk factors for osteoporosis, novel bone phenotypes, and gene-environment interactions, and translating findings into clinical practice. Since 2008, GEFOS has made numerous genomic discoveries in bone and muscle phenotypes, including BMD, lean mass, and grip strength, through large-scale GWAS meta-analyses.

Why do bones of many people break
Bones are crucial for the body’s structure, mobility, and protection of vital organs. However, many individuals experience fractures due to a combination of factors that weaken bone strength, increase susceptibility to injury, and affect bone regeneration. These factors are influenced by genetics, lifestyle, and environmental elements, and understanding them is essential to improving bone health […]
How does the study of inherited characters help us understand the risk of disease.
The study of inherited traits plays a crucial role in understanding the risk of various diseases, particularly those affecting the musculoskeletal system. Genetic factors influence key aspects of bone and muscle health, such as bone mineral density (BMD), bone quality, muscle mass, and strength. By examining hereditary traits, researchers can identify individuals who are genetically […]
