Rapid identification of mutations in GJC2 in primary lymphoedema using whole exome sequencing combined with linkage analysis with delineation of the phenotype. [PDF]
Background: Primary lymphoedema describes a chronic, frequently progressive, failure of lymphatic drainage. This disorder is frequently genetic in origin, and a multigenerational family in which eight individuals developed postnatal lymphoedema of all ...

Parallel Privacy-preserving Record Linkage using LSH-based Blocking
Privacy-preserving record linkage (PPRL) aims at integrating person-related data without revealing sensitive information. For this purpose, PPRL schemes typically use encoded attribute values and a trusted party for conducting the linkage.

Linkage to chromosome 11p12 in two Maltese families with a highly penetrant form of osteoporosis [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease with a strong genetic component. Family-based linkage studies were performed by a number of investigators to try to identify loci that might contain genes responsible for an increased susceptibility to ...

A genetic linkage map of Venturia inaequalis, the causal agent of apple scab [PDF]
Background Venturia inaequalis is an economically-important disease of apple causing annual epidemics of scab worldwide. The pathogen is a heterothallic ascomycete with an annual cycle of sexual reproduction on infected apple leaf litter, followed by ...

Scalable Secure Privacy-Preserving Record Linkage (PPRL) Methods Using Cloud-based Infrastructure
Introduction Bloom Filters (BFs) are a scalable solution for probabilistic privacy-preserving record linkage but BFs can be compromised. Yao’s garbled circuits (GCs) can perform secure multi-party computation to compute the similarity of two BFs without ...
