Identification of Druggable Genes for Asthma by Integrated Genomic Network Analysis
Asthma is a common and heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation. Currently, the two main types of asthma medicines are inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting β2-adrenoceptor agonists (LABAs).

How data science and AI-based technologies impact genomics
Advancements in high-throughput sequencing have yielded vast amounts of genomic data, which are studied using genome-wide association study (GWAS)/phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) methods to identify associations between the genotype and phenotype.

Comorbidities in lichen planus by phenome-wide association study in two biobank population cohorts. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Lichen planus (LP) is a relative frequent mucocutaneous inflammatory disease affecting the skin, skin appendages, and mucosae, including oral mucosae, and less frequently anogenital area, conjunctivae, esophagus, or larynx.

Phenome-wide association studies (PheWASs) for functional variants [PDF]
The genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a powerful approach for studying the genetic complexities of human disease. Unfortunately, GWASs often fail to identify clinically significant associations and describing function can be a challenge. GWAS is a phenotype-to-genotype approach.

Phenome-Wide Association Studies: Embracing Complexity for Discovery [PDF]
The inherent complexity of biological systems can be leveraged for a greater understanding of the impact of genetic architecture on outcomes, traits, and pharmacological response. The genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach has well-developed methods and relatively straight-forward methodologies; however, the bigger picture of the impact of ...

The associations between diet-induced inflammation and health outcomes: a population-based phenome-wide association study. [PDF]
Evidence linking the dietary inflammatory index (DII) to health outcomes remains inconsistent and limited. This study assessed the associations between DII and 845 health outcomes (N = 78,390 to 207,832), identifying 133 outcomes significantly associated

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 ...

Genome-wide association study of hyperthyroidism based on electronic medical record from Taiwan
Excess thyroid hormones have complex metabolic effects, particularly hyperthyroidism, and are associated with various cardiovascular risk factors. Previous candidate gene studies have indicated that genetic variants may contribute to this variable ...

CoPheScan: phenome-wide association studies accounting for linkage disequilibrium
AbstractPhenome-wide association studies (PheWAS) facilitate the discovery of associations between a single genetic variant with multiple phenotypes. For variants which impact a specific protein, this can help identify additional therapeutic indications or on-target side effects of intervening on that protein.
