Candidate genes for COPD in two large data sets.
Lack of reproducibility of findings has been a criticism of genetic association studies on complex diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We selected 257 polymorphisms of 16 genes with reported or potential relationships to COPD and genotyped these variants in a case-control study that included 953 COPD cases and 956 control subjects. We explored the association of thes...
متن کاملCandidate genes for COPD: current evidence and research
COPD is a common complex disease characterized by progressive airflow limitation. Several genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have discovered genes that are associated with COPD. Recently, candidate genes for COPD identified by GWASs include CHRNA3/5 (cholinergic nicotine receptor alpha 3/5), IREB2 (iron regulatory binding protein 2), HHIP (hedgehog-interacting protein), FAM13A (family with...
متن کاملTwo-stage Variable Clustering for Large Data Sets
In data mining, principal component analysis is a popular dimension reduction technique. It also provides a good remedy for the multicollinearity problem, but its interpretation of input space is not as good. To overcome the interpretation problem, principal components (cluster components) are obtained through variable clustering, which was implemented with PROC VARCLUS. The procedure uses obli...
متن کاملPrioritizing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) candidate genes in COPD-related networks
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multi-factor disease, which could be caused by many factors, including disturbances of metabolism and protein-protein interactions (PPIs). In this paper, a weighted COPD-related metabolic network and a weighted COPD-related PPI network were constructed base on COPD disease genes and functional information. Candidate genes in these weighted COPD-...
متن کاملVisualising large data sets
Large data sets are different and new methods of display are needed for dealing with them. This paper reviews the standard problems in displaying large numbers of cases and variables, both continuous and categorical, and emphasises the need for improving current software. Much could be achieved by adding interactive tools to standard displays to provide greater flexibility and to facilitate a m...
