Sample size requirements to detect the effect of a group of genetic variants in case-control studies

open access: yesEmerging Themes in Epidemiology, 2008
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

Rare Variants of Putative Candidate Genes Associated With Sporadic Meniere's Disease in East Asian Population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Objectives: The cause of Meniere's disease (MD) is unclear but likely involves genetic and environmental factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic basis underlying MD by screening putative candidate genes for MD.

COVID-19 and Genetic Variants of Protein Involved in the SARS-CoV-2 Entry into the Host Cells

open access: yesGenes, 2020
The recent global COVID-19 public health emergency is caused by SARS-CoV-2 infections and can manifest extremely variable clinical symptoms. Host human genetic variability could influence susceptibility and response to infection.

HUMAN GENETIC VARIANTS AND THEIR ANALYSIS: CURRENT STATE AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES

open access: yesSlovenska pediatrija, 2020
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 ...

Mitochondrial genetic variants associated with bipolar disorder and Schizophrenia in a Japanese population

open access: yesInternational Journal of Bipolar Disorders, 2023
Background Bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia (SZ) are complex psychotic disorders (PSY), with both environmental and genetic factors including possible maternal inheritance playing a role.

Clinical application of high throughput molecular screening techniques for pharmacogenomics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Genetic analysis is one of the fastest-growing areas of clinical diagnostics. Fortunately, as our knowledge of clinically relevant genetic variants rapidly expands, so does our ability to detect these variants in patient samples.

Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Most common human traits and diseases have a polygenic pattern of inheritance: DNA sequence variants at many genetic loci influence the phenotype. Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified more than 600 variants associated with human traits ...

Pathogenesis of premature coronary artery disease: Focus on risk factors and genetic variants

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2022
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.

Bivariate causal mixture model quantifies polygenic overlap between complex traits beyond genetic correlation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Accumulating evidence from genome wide association studies (GWAS) suggests an abundance of shared genetic influences among complex human traits and disorders, such as mental disorders.
