Hardy Weinberg equilibrium in genetic PE research remains critical to avoid misinterpretation.
We have read the article by Waldinger et al [1]. First of all, once again we do apologise for the mistake in our article regarding a possible asssociation of the 5-HTTLPR gene polymorphism and lifelong premature ejaculation (PE) in Turkish men. Previously, the total number of patients and controls had been mistakenly written as ‘70’ instead of ‘69’. The percentage of L/S and S/S had also been w...
متن کاملHardy Weinberg Equilibrium Testing and Interpretation: Focus on infection
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) holds when, in a closed population with random mating and without mutation and natural selection, genotype frequencies at any locus is a simple function of allele frequencies. Testing for HWE is now a common practice in population genetics and genetic association studies of non-communicable diseases; however, it is less-regarded, or sometimes miss-interpreted, i...
متن کاملBayesian methods for examining Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
Testing for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is ubiquitous and has traditionally been carried out via frequentist approaches. However, the discreteness of the sample space means that uniformity of p-values under the null cannot be assumed, with enumeration of all possible counts, conditional on the minor allele count, offering a computationally expensive way of p-value calibration. In addition, the i...

متن کاملDistributions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test statistics.
It is well established that test statistics and P-values derived from discrete data, such as genetic markers, are also discrete. In most genetic applications, the null distribution for a discrete test statistic is approximated with a continuous distribution, but this approximation may not be reasonable. In some cases using the continuous approximation for the expected null distribution may caus...
