Sample size requirements to detect the effect of a group of genetic variants in case-control studies
Background Because common diseases are caused by complex interactions among many genetic variants along with environmental risk factors, very large sample sizes are usually needed to detect such effects in case-control studies. Nevertheless, many genetic

Pathogenesis of premature coronary artery disease: Focus on risk factors and genetic variants
The development of premature coronary artery disease (PCAD) is dependent on both genetic predisposition and traditional risk factors. Strategies for unraveling the genetic basis of PCAD have evolved with the advent of modern technologies.

HUMAN GENETIC VARIANTS AND THEIR ANALYSIS: CURRENT STATE AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES
Human genetic variants occur throughout the whole genome, both in the coding and non-coding regions. In addition to defining genetic diversity among individuals, they may, in some instances, cause various genetic diseases, many of which have their onset ...

Genetic variants causing underlying pharmacogenetic and disease phenotypes have been used as the basis for clinical decision-making. However, due to the lack of standards for next-generation sequencing (NGS) pipelines, reproducing genetic variants among ...

Rare Variants in Transcript and Potential Regulatory Regions Explain a Small Percentage of the Missing Heritability of Complex Traits in Cattle. [PDF]
The proportion of genetic variation in complex traits explained by rare variants is a key question for genomic prediction, and for identifying the basis of "missing heritability"--the proportion of additive genetic variation not captured by common ...

A Regression-based Approach to Robust Estimation and Inference for Genetic Covariance [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified thousands of genetic variants associated with complex traits, and some variants are shown to be associated with multiple complex traits. Genetic covariance between two traits is defined as the underlying covariance of genetic effects and can be used to measure the shared genetic architecture.

Substrate Specificity of CYP2D6 Genetic Variants
Genetic variation in the gene encoding CYP2D6 is used to guide drug prescribing in clinical practice. However, genetic variants in CYP2D6 show substrate-specific effects that are currently not accounted for. With a systematic literature, we retrieved 22 original studies describing in vitro experiments focusing on CYP2D6 alleles (CYP2D6*1, *2, *10 and ...
