A flexible Bayesian model for studying gene-environment interaction. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 An important follow-up step after genetic markers are found to be associated with a disease outcome is a more detailed analysis investigating how the implicated gene or chromosomal region and an established environment risk factor interact to influence ...

The impact of imprecisely measured covariates on estimating gene-environment interactions [PDF]
, 2006 BACKGROUND The effects of measurement error in epidemiological exposures and confounders on estimated effects of exposure are well described, but the effects on estimates for gene-environment interactions has received rather less attention.

Regulation of Pancreatic β-Cell Mass by Gene-Environment Interaction [PDF]
Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2022 The main pathogenic mechanism of diabetes consists of an increase in insulin resistance and a decrease in insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. The number of diabetic patients has been increasing dramatically worldwide, especially in Asian people ...

Springer: An R package for bi-level variable selection of high-dimensional longitudinal data
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 In high-dimensional data analysis, the bi-level (or the sparse group) variable selection can simultaneously conduct penalization on the group level and within groups, which has been developed for continuous, binary, and survival responses in the ...

Artificial neural networks modeling gene-environment interaction
BMC Genetics, 2012 Background Gene-environment interactions play an important role in the etiological pathway of complex diseases. An appropriate statistical method for handling a wide variety of complex situations involving interactions between variables is still lacking,
