These conditions have various risk factors, including high blood sugar levels, high cholesterol levels, and insulin resistance. However, these risk factors have not been studied very closely in individuals with African ancestry, including Afro-Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa migrant populations. Researchers are interested in conducting a genetic study on obesity, adult-onset diabetes, heart disease, and other common health conditions in individuals with African ancestry.\n\nObjectives:\n\n\\- To collect genetic and non-genetic information from individuals with African ancestry to study common health conditions related to obesity, adult-onset diabetes, and heart disease.\n\nEligibility:\n\n\\- Individuals at least 18 years of age who self-identify as African American, Afro-Caribbean, or migrants from sub Saharan Africa.\n\nDesign:\n\n* Participants will undergo a physical examination and will provide a blood sample for study.\n* Participants will also answer questions about personal and family medical history and current lifestyle behaviors.\n* No treatment will be provided as part of this protocol....","Study Description:\n\nThe study is to perform a quantitative trait analysis of multiple metabolic biomarkers and disorders including T2D, hypertension, CVD and obesity in a total of 1000 people of African ancestry and approximately 100 whites (who will serve as a comparison group) residing in the United States.\n\nWe will also perform exome sequencing of 48 cases of African descent and genotype identified variants in the larger cohort. Cases for exome sequencing will consist of individuals who have more than one metabolic condition, i.e., diabetes, pre-diabetes, obesity, hypertension and\u002For dyslipidemia. We propose to carry out exome capture of 48 individuals (96 chromosomes).\n\nObjectives:\n\nPrimary Objective: Genotype variants of interest from genetic epidemiology studies conducted in Dr. Rotimi's lab in these individuals, with thorough clinical measurements available, in order to investigate biological mechanisms underlying observed associations.\n\nSecondary Objectives: Conduct whole-exome capture on a subset of cases with at least 2 metabolic disorders (i.e., diabetes, pre-diabetes, obesity, hypertension and\u002For dyslipidemia). Genotype identified variants in the larger cohort of 1000 persons or in existing studies of African ancestry individuals (Howard University Family Study or Africa America Diabetes Mellitus Study).",[17,18],"Diabetes","Cardiovascular Disease",[20,21],"Cardiometabolic Diseases","Natural History","OBSERVATIONAL",[],{"count":25,"type":26},1100,"ESTIMATED",[],[29],{"measure":30,"description":31,"timeFrame":32},"Metabolic disorders","type 2 diabetes, metabolic outcomes, dyslipidemia","One study visit",[],"ALL","18 Years","120 Years",true,{"inclusion":39,"exclusion":47,"raw_text":51},[40,41,42,43,44,45,46],"Persons who self-identify as either","African American","Afro-Caribbean","A migrant from sub-Saharan Africa","White","Persons \\>= 18 years","Participation in a protocol with Dr. Anne Sumner, NIDDK",[48,49,50],"Individuals related to participants (any known familial relationship, as reported by the prospective enrollee)","Adults unable to consent","Pregnant women","* INCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nSubjects will include unrelated persons who self-identify as white or African American, Afro-Caribbean or migrant from sub-Saharan Africa. Adults of African ancestry are prioritized for this study because of the paucity of genetics studies investigating the association of risk alleles contributing to the prevalence of T2D, CVD, obesity and other common conditions in this population. A small proportion of whites (less than 10%) will be included in this study, as they are in Dr. Sumner's ongoing projects; they will have the same clinical measurements obtained in the same laboratory to serve as a comparison group. This study only includes adults because these phenotypes are more commonly present in adults.

Adults unable to consent will be included in this study. Pregnant women are excluded from this study because pregnancy induces changes in metabolism that would interfere with the measurements and outcomes of the study.
