Local genetic correlations found even in the absence of global correlations.Both positive and negative local correlations found for IR-neuropsychiatric pairs.Enrichment for immune, and insulin signalling pathways, among others.Pinpointed shared likely causal variants within 10 genomic regions.Identified therapeutic targets, e.g., SLC39A8 and HLA-DRB1, for drug repurposing.
