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 ...

Application of clinical text data for phenome-wide association studies (PheWASs). [PDF]
Abstract Motivation: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are effective for describing genetic complexities of common diseases. Phenome-wide association studies (PheWASs) offer an alternative and complementary approach to GWAS using data embedded in the electronic health record (EHR) to define the phenome.

SAIGE-GPU: accelerating genome- and phenome-wide association studies using GPUs. [PDF]
Motivation Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) at biobank scale are computationally intensive, especially for admixed populations requiring robust statistical models. SAIGE is a widely used method for generalized linear mixed-model GWAS but is limited

Leveraging Genome and Phenome-Wide Association Studies to Investigate Genetic Risk of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. [PDF]
Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of childhood cancers remain limited, highlighting the need for novel analytic strategies. We describe a hybrid GWAS and phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) approach to uncover genotype–phenotype ...

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.

Unbiased Phenome-Wide Association Studies of Red Cell Distribution Width Identifies Key Associations with Pulmonary Hypertension. [PDF]
Rationale: Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a prognostic factor in many diseases; however, its clinical utility remains limited because the relative value of RDW as a biomarker across disease states has not been established.

Phenome-Wide Association Studies Uncover a Novel Association of Increased Atrial Fibrillation in Male Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. [PDF]
Phenome‐wide association studies (PheWAS) scan across billing codes in the electronic health record (EHR) and re‐purpose clinical EHR data for research. In this study, we examined whether PheWAS could function as an EHR‐based discovery tool for systemic ...
