Migraine genetics: Associative studies
Статья посвящена анализу имеющихся на сегодняшний день данных генетических полиморфизмов, излучавшихся при мигрени. При мигрени гены-кандидаты мигрени сгруппированы в четыре функциональных семейства генов: гены нервной системы, гены сердечно-сосудистой системы, гормональные, воспалительные гены. Среди генов нервной системы значимость представляют гены,

Human platelet antigen polymorphisms and the risk of chronic Chagas disease cardiomyopathy
Human platelet antigen (HPA) polymorphisms are considered to be a risk factor for cardiac and vascular diseases, but the role of HPA in chronic Chagas disease cardiomyopathy (CCC) is not available.

‘Smoking Genes’: A Genetic Association Study
Some controversy exists on the specific genetic variants that are associated with nicotine dependence and smoking-related phenotypes. The purpose of this study was to analyse the association of smoking status and smoking-related phenotypes (included nicotine dependence) with 17 candidate genetic variants: CYP2A6*1×2, CYP2A6*2 (1799T>A) [rs1801272 ...

Genome-wide trans-ancestry meta-analysis provides insight into the genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes susceptibility. [PDF]
To further understanding of the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility, we aggregated published meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), including 26,488 cases and 83,964 controls of European, east Asian, south Asian and ...

Simple Algorithms to Calculate Asymptotic Null Distributions of Robust Tests in Case-Control Genetic Association Studies in R [PDF]
The case-control study is an important design for testing association between genetic markers and a disease. The Cochran-Armitage trend test (CATT) is one of the most commonly used statistics for the analysis of case-control genetic association studies ...

Genome-wide association study of primary open-angle glaucoma in continental and admixed African populations. [PDF]
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a complex disease with a major genetic contribution. Its prevalence varies greatly among ethnic groups, and is up to five times more frequent in black African populations compared to Europeans.

U-statistics in genetic association studies [PDF]
Many common human diseases are complex and are expected to be highly heterogeneous, with multiple causative loci and multiple rare and common variants at some of the causative loci contributing to the risk of these diseases. Data from the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and metadata such as known gene functions and pathways provide the ...

Replication validity of genetic association studies
The rapid growth of human genetics creates countless opportunities for studies of disease association. Given the number of potentially identifiable genetic markers and the multitude of clinical outcomes to which these may be linked, the testing and validation of statistical hypotheses in genetic epidemiology is a task of unprecedented scale.
