T1 - Genome-wide association study identifies multiple susceptibility loci for multiple myeloma JF - Nature Communications N2 - Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy with a significant heritable basis. Genome-wide association studies have transformed our understanding of MM predisposition, but individual studies have had limited power to discover risk loci. Here we perform a meta-analysis of these GWAS, add a new GWAS and perform replication analyses resulting in 9,866 cases and 239,188 controls. We confirm all nine known risk loci and discover eight new loci at 6p22.3 (rs34229995, P=1.31 × 10−8), 6q21 (rs9372120, P=9.09 × 10−15), 7q36.1 (rs7781265, P=9.71 × 10−9), 8q24.21 (rs1948915, P=4.20 × 10−11), 9p21.3 (rs2811710, P=1.72 × 10−13), 10p12.1 (rs2790457, P=1.77 × 10−8), 16q23.1 (rs7193541, P=5.00 × 10−12) and 20q13.13 (rs6066835, P=1.36 × 10−13), which localize in or near to JARID2, ATG5, SMARCD3, CCAT1, CDKN2A, WAC, RFWD3 and PREX1. These findings provide additional support for a polygenic model of MM and insight into the biological basis of tumour development.

Sie dienen unter anderem zur Indikation für Hörhilfen, zur Verlaufskontrolle und zur Begutachtung. Der deutschsprachige Sprachraum ist von den Freiburger Satztests geprägt. Dennoch gibt es im deutschsprachigen Raum weitere sprachaudiometrische Testverfahren. Der Oldenburger Satztest ist ein moderner Sprachtests, der als Matrixtest syntaktisch korrekte und semantisch inkorrekte Sätze als Sprachmaterial nutzt. Diese Dissertation untersucht altersabhängige Lerneffekte an einem normalhörenden Probandenkollektiv. Dazu wurden 40 Probanden in homogenen Altersgruppen auf den bereits in der Literatur vielfach beschriebenen Lerneffekt untersucht. Die Dissertation konnte zeigen, dass sich der Lerneffekt in allen Altersgruppen ähnlich verhält. Die Lerneffekte sind damit nicht altersabhängig. Der Lerneffekt zeigte in allen Altersgruppen signifikante Verbesserungen in der fünften durchgeführten Testliste im Vergleich zur ersten durchgeführten Testliste. N2 - Speech audiometric tests are subjective test procedures to measure speech intelligibility. Among other things, they serve as an indication for hearing aids, for progress monitoring and for assessment. Actually are the “Freiburger” sentence tests the most important test in German-speaking countries. However, there are other language audiometric test procedures in German-speaking countries. The “Oldenburger” sentence test is a modern language test, designed as a matrix test, uses syntactically correct and semantically incorrect sentences as language material. This dissertation examines age-dependent learning effects in a group of normal hearing persons. For this purpose, 40 test persons in homogeneous age groups were examined for the learning effect that has already been described many times in the literature. The dissertation showed that the learning effect is similar in all age groups. The learning effects are therefore not age-dependent. The learning effect showed significant improvements in the fifth test list compared to the first test list in all age groups.
