Association of Genetic Variation With Keratoconus [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA Ophthalmology, 2020
Keratoconus is a condition in which the cornea progressively thins and protrudes in a conical shape, severely affecting refraction and vision. It is a major indication for corneal transplant. To discover new genetic loci associated with keratoconus and better understand the causative mechanism of this disease, we performed a genome-wide association ...

Genetic association of FMRP targets with psychiatric disorders

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Genes encoding the mRNA targets of Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) are enriched for genetic association with psychiatric disorders. However, many FMRP targets possess functions that are themselves genetically associated with psychiatric ...

Genetic Alterations Associated With Cryptorchidism [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA, 2008
Cryptorchidism is the most frequent congenital birth defect in male children and represents an important risk factor for infertility and testicular cancer. Major regulators of testicular descent are the hormones insulin-like factor 3 (INSL3) and testosterone, and disruption of these pathways might cause cryptorchidism.To determine the frequency of ...

Genetic variants associated with sepsis

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2022
Background The variable presentations and different phenotypes of sepsis suggest that risk of sepsis comes from many genes each having a small effect. The cumulative effect can be used to create individual risk profile. The purpose of this study was to create a polygenic risk score and determine the genetic variants associated with sepsis.

The anatomical distribution of genetic associations [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2015
AbstractDeeper understanding of the anatomical intermediaries for disease and other complex genetic traits is essential to understanding mechanisms and developing new interventions. Existing ontology tools provide functional annotations for many genes in the genome and they are widely used to develop mechanistic hypotheses based on genetic and ...

Genetic model misspecification in genetic association studies [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2017
The underlying model of the genetic determinant of a trait is generally not known with certainty a priori. Hence, in genetic association studies, a dominant model might be erroneously modelled as additive, an error investigated previously. We explored this question, for candidate gene studies, by evaluating the sample size required to compensate for ...

Evolving temporal association rules with genetic algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A novel framework for mining temporal association rules by discovering itemsets with a genetic algorithm is introduced. Metaheuristics have been applied to association rule mining, we show the efficacy of extending this to another variant - temporal ...

FinnGen provides genetic insights from a well-phenotyped isolated population

open access: yesNature, 2023
Genome-wide association studies of individuals from an isolated population (data from the Finnish biobank study FinnGen) and consequent meta-analyses facilitate the identification of previously unknown coding variant associations for both rare and common

Cytokine gene polymorphisms in preterm infants with necrotising enterocolitis: genetic association study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND The inflammatory cytokine cascade is implicated in the pathogenesis of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). Genetic association studies of cytokine polymorphisms may help to detect molecular mechanisms that are causally related to the disease ...

Genome-wide association analysis of plasma lipidome identifies 495 genetic associations

open access: yesmedRxiv, 2023
Human plasma lipidome captures risk for cardio-metabolic diseases. To discover new lipid-associated variants and understand link between lipid species and cardiometabolic disorders, we performed univariate and multivariate genome-wide analyses of 179 ...
