Modeling and Testing for Joint Association Using a Genetic Random Field Model [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Substantial progress has been made in identifying single genetic variants predisposing to common complex diseases. Nonetheless, the genetic etiology of human diseases remains largely unknown. Human complex diseases are likely influenced by the joint effect of a large number of genetic variants instead of a single variant. The joint analysis of multiple

Joint modeling with time-dependent treatment and heteroskedasticity: Bayesian analysis with application to the Framingham Heart Study [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Medical studies for chronic disease are often interested in the relation between longitudinal risk factor profiles and individuals' later life disease outcomes. These profiles may typically be subject to intermediate structural changes due to treatment or environmental influences.

Dynamic Prediction for Multiple Repeated Measures and Event Time Data: An Application to Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 In many clinical trials studying neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple longitudinal outcomes are collected to fully explore the multidimensional impairment caused by this disease. If the outcomes deteriorate rapidly, patients may reach a level of functional disability sufficient to initiate levodopa therapy for ...
