The deCODE
team, working with doctors and researchers at Iceland's National University Hospital and the
Icelandic Heart Association, identified the PDE4D gene and significant haplotypes by analyzing detailed genotypic data from some 1800 participants in its stroke program, both patients and unaffected relatives, from across Iceland.
In this study, the deCODE
team analyzed more than 300,000 SNPs across the genomes of some 10,000
Icelandic participants, mainly women, and replicated its findings in cohorts of approximately 4000 Danish and Australian, again mainly female, participants.
In the first paper, utilizing genomic analysis of nearly 8,500
Icelandic and Dutch participants, the deCODE

The deCODE
team then demonstrated in its
Icelandic cohort that this SNP also associated with an increased risk of T2D, a finding that was then replicated in a meta - analysis of data from more than 80,000 cases and controls from Europe and the US.
Through the analysis of more than 300,000 SNPs across the genomes of more than 15,000
