Genetic association studies: Design, analysis and interpretation
This paper provides a review of the design and analysis of genetic association studies. In case control studies, the different contingency tables and their relationships to the underlying genetic model are defined. Population stratification is discussed, with suggested methods to identify and correct for the effect. The transmission disequilibrium test is provided as an alternative family-based...
متن کاملGenetic Association Studies in Stroke
Background and Purpose—A large number of candidate gene association studies have attempted to identify genes implicated in stroke, but there have been few replicable and robust associations reported. Summary of Review—The skantness of replicable associations partly relates to poor study design. Important methodological considerations include adequate sample size, the selection of appropriate co...

To the Editor: I am delighted to see that Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology has taken the lead in initiating an open discussion about genetic association studies in such a prominent manner. As correctly pointed out in the editorial by Dr Hegele,1 the number of publications has exponentially increased in the last decade. Despite the intrinsic problems with this approach, this ex...

With the completion of the HapMap project1 and the development of technology that allows the examination of 1 million genetic polymorphisms at once, genetic association studies are becoming more comprehensive. This article first provides a brief overview of the rationale for genetic association studies; it then discusses the primary features differentiating genetic from standard association stu...
متن کاملGenetic association studies.
The widespread availability of DNA from large population studies, the development of rapid throughput genotyping assays, and the identification of numerous polymorphisms in genes of interest make it easier to perform genetic association studies in humans. We consider these studies appropriate areas of research in relation to atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and vascular biology. In this issue, Drs ...
