Population-scale gene-based analysis of whole-genome sequencing provides insights into metabolic health.

Moreover, sensitivity gene-burden tests considering only those additional carriers identified by WGS (that is, not identified by WES data), 16 of the 23 gene masks with at least five carriers showed a nominally significant association ( P < 0.05) with the target phenotype, indicating that the additional coding variants identified by WGS are likely to be functionally relevant.
