Phenome-wide association studies as a research tool for identifying new pathogenetic links

open access: yesКардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика
The accumulation of biospecimens associated with large-scale clinical data (data from electronic medical records, epidemiological and other large-scale studies) has made it possible to conduct studies aimed at studying associations between genetic ...

MR-PheWAS:Hypothesis prioritization among potential causal effects of body mass index on many outcomes, using Mendelian randomization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Observational cohort studies can provide rich datasets with a diverse range of phenotypic variables. However, hypothesis-driven epidemiological analyses by definition only test particular hypotheses chosen by researchers.

A data-driven approach for studying the role of body mass in multiple diseases: a phenome-wide registry-based case-control study in the UK Biobank [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Mendelian randomisation allows for the testing of causal effects in situations where clinical trials are challenging to do. In this hypothesis-free, data-driven phenome-wide association study (PheWAS), we sought to assess possible ...

The extracellular matrix phenome across species

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus, 2020
Extracellular matrices are essential for cellular and organismal function. Recent genome-wide and phenome-wide association studies started to reveal a broad spectrum of phenotypes associated with genetic variants.

HLA Class I or Class II and Disease Association: Catch the Difference if You Can [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The association of autoimmune diseases with HLA has been known for many decades. To date, however, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully understood. The recently introduced genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have suggested that several genes

Human and Machine Intelligence Together Drive Drug Repurposing in Rare Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Repurposing is an increasingly attractive method within the field of drug development for its efficiency at identifying new therapeutic opportunities among approved drugs at greatly reduced cost and time of more traditional methods.
