Multiple Group Testing Procedures for Analysis of High-Dimensional Genomic Data [PDF]
In genetic association studies with high-dimensional genomic data, multiple group testing procedures are often required in order to identify disease/trait-related genes or genetic regions, where multiple genetic sites or variants are located within the ...

Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
The widespread availability of DNA from large population studies, the development of rapid throughput genotyping assays, and the identification of numerous polymorphisms in genes of interest make it easier to perform genetic association studies in humans. We consider these studies appropriate areas of research in relation to atherosclerosis, thrombosis,

Stroke Genetics: A Review and Update [PDF]
Stroke genetics includes several topics of clinical interest, including (1) molecular genetic variations affecting risk of monogenic stroke syndromes; (2) molecular genetic variations affecting risk of common stroke syndromes, sometimes with specific ...

Genetic association studies [PDF]
The urge to associate genetic markers with human traits or diseases has been around for centuries. The association of specific hair colors with certain personality types has a long tradition in folklore. The rate-limiting factor has been the availability of measurable genetic markers.

Genetic variants related to physical activity or sedentary behaviour: a systematic review
Background Research shows that part of the variation in physical activity and sedentary behaviour may be explained by genetic factors. Identifying genetic variants associated with physical activity and sedentary behaviour can improve causal inference in ...

Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
With the completion of the HapMap project1 and the development of technology that allows the examination of ≥1 million genetic polymorphisms at once, genetic association studies are becoming more comprehensive. This article first provides a brief overview of the rationale for genetic association studies; it then discusses the primary features ...

Population Structure and Cryptic Relatedness in Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
We review the problem of confounding in genetic association studies, which arises principally because of population structure and cryptic relatedness. Many treatments of the problem consider only a simple ``island'' model of population structure. We take
