Genome-Wide Association Study of Motor Coordination [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
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.

Association of genetic variation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure among African Americans: the Candidate Gene Association Resource study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The prevalence of hypertension in African Americans (AAs) is higher than in other US groups; yet, few have performed genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in AA.

A genome-wide association study identifies protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
There is considerable evidence that human genetic variation influences gene expression. Genome-wide studies have revealed that mRNA levels are associated with genetic variation in or close to the gene coding for those mRNA transcripts - cis effects, and ...

Guidelines for Genome-Wide Association Studies

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revolutionized human genetics. They have led to the identification of thousands of loci that affect both normal variation and susceptibility to disease, and have clarified our understanding of the genetic architecture of complex traits.

Replication in Genome-Wide Association Studies

open access: yesStatistical Science, 2009
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]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Oncology, 2010
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. Increased knowledge about the human genome and advances in genotyping technology have

Data mining and machine learning approaches for the integration of genome-wide association and methylation data: methodology and main conclusions from GAW20

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2018
Background Multiple layers of genetic and epigenetic variability are being simultaneously explored in an increasing number of health studies. We summarize here different approaches applied in the Data Mining and Machine Learning group at the GAW20 to ...

Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Novel Restless Legs Syndrome Susceptibility Loci on 2p14 and 16q12.1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder with an age-dependent prevalence of up to 10% in the general population above 65 years of age. Affected individuals suffer from uncomfortable sensations and an urge to move in the lower limbs that ...
