GWAS on self-reported hearing difficulty in the UK Biobank

The dataset contains results of two genome-wide association studies for age-related hearing impairment (ARHI)-related traits as described in the following publication Wells HRR, Freidin MB, Zainul Abidin FN, Payton A, Dawes P, Munro KJ, Morton CC, Moore DR, Dawson SJ, Williams FMK. GWAS Identifies 44 Independent Associated Genomic Loci for Self-Reported Adult Hearing Difficulty in UK Biobank. Am J Hum Genet. 2019 Oct 3;105(4):788-802. doi: 10.1016/j.ajhg.2019.09.008. Epub 2019 Sep 26. Please cite the article if using this dataset. Two files provide summary statistics for discovery analysis of Hearing difficulty (HD) and Hearing aid use (HAID) phenotypes for individuals of European descent from UK Biobank.
