Genome-wide Association Study for AKI
Key Points Two genetic variants in the DISP1-TLR5 gene locus were associated with risk of AKI.DISP1 and TLR5 were differentially regulated in kidney biopsy tissue from patients with AKI compared with no AKI. Background

Genome-Wide Association Study of Motor Coordination [PDF]
The ability to finely control our movement is key to achieving many of the educational milestones and life-skills we develop throughout our lives. Despite the centrality of coordination to early development, there is a vast gap in our understanding of the underlying biology.

Replication in Genome-Wide Association Studies
Replication helps ensure that a genotype-phenotype association observed in a genome-wide association (GWA) study represents a credible association and is not a chance finding or an artifact due to uncontrolled biases. We discuss prerequisites for exact replication, issues of heterogeneity, advantages and disadvantages of different methods of data ...

Genome-Wide Association Studies of Cancer [PDF]
Knowledge of the inherited risk for cancer is an important component of preventive oncology. In addition to well-established syndromes of cancer predisposition, much remains to be discovered about the genetic variation underlying susceptibility to common malignancies.

Turning genome-wide association study findings into opportunities for drug repositioning
Drug development is a very costly and lengthy process, while repositioned or repurposed drugs could be brought into clinical practice within a shorter time-frame and at a much reduced cost.

SNP set association analysis for genome-wide association studies. [PDF]
Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a promising approach for identifying common genetic variants of the diseases on the basis of millions of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

Genome-Wide Association Studies in Glioma [PDF]
Abstract Since the first reports in 2009, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successful in identifying germline variants associated with glioma susceptibility. In this review, we describe a chronological history of glioma GWAS, culminating in the most recent study comprising 12,496 cases and 18,190 controls. We additionally

Optimized homomorphic encryption solution for secure genome-wide association studies
Background Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) refer to observational studies of a genome-wide set of genetic variants across many individuals to see if any genetic variants are associated with a certain trait.

Genome-wide Association Studies
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a powerful hypothesis-free tool for the dissection of susceptibility to common heritable human diseases, including osteoporosis. To date, more than 2000 loci for common human diseases have been identified by GWAS.
