The challenges, advantages and future of phenome‐wide association studies [PDF]
SummaryOver the last decade, significant technological breakthroughs have revolutionized human genomic research in the form of genome‐wide association studies (GWASs). GWASs have identified thousands of statistically significant genetic variants associated with hundreds of human conditions including many with immunological aetiologies (e.g.

Phenome-Wide Association Studies as a Tool to Advance Precision Medicine [PDF]
Beginning in the early 2000s, the accumulation of biospecimens linked to electronic health records (EHRs) made possible genome-phenome studies (i.e., comparative analyses of genetic variants and phenotypes) using only data collected as a by-product of typical health care.

Phenome-Wide Association Studies: Leveraging Comprehensive Phenotypic and Genotypic Data for Discovery [PDF]
With the large volume of clinical and epidemiological data being collected, increasingly linked to extensive genotypic data, coupled with expanding high-performance computational resources, there are considerable opportunities for comprehensively exploring the networks of connections that exist between the phenome and the genome.

Integration of Genome‐Wide Association Studies With Single‐Cell and Bulk Expression Quantitative Trait Locus to Identify Stroke Susceptibility Genes [PDF]
Background Previous studies have integrated genome‐wide association studies with expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) data from bulk tissues to identify stroke susceptibility genes. However, eQTL data exhibit high cell‐type specificity, and genetic

Current Scope and Challenges in Phenome-Wide Association Studies. [PDF]
Over many decades, researchers have been designing studies to investigate the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes to gain an understanding about the effect of genetics on disease. Recently, a high-throughput approach called phenome-wide associations studies (PheWAS) have been extensively used to identify associations between genetic variants ...

Methodology in phenome-wide association studies: a systematic review [PDF]
Phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) has been increasingly used to identify novel genetic associations across a wide spectrum of phenotypes. This systematic review aims to summarise the PheWAS methodology, discuss the advantages and challenges of PheWAS, and provide potential implications for future PheWAS studies.

A phenome-wide association study of genetically mimicked statins [PDF]
Abstract Background Beyond their success in cardiovascular disease prevention, statins are increasingly recognized to have sex-specific pleiotropic effects. To gain additional insight, we characterized associations of genetically mimicked statins across the phenotype sex-specifically.
