Association Analysis under Population Stratification: A Two-Stage Procedure Utilizing Population- and Family-Based Analyses.
OBJECTIVE The association analysis based on a population-based case-control study is convenient and powerful, but may be biased under population stratification (PS), namely the study population consists of strata heterogeneous in disease rates and allele frequencies. On the other hand, a family-based (e.g. case-parents) study is robust against the PS bias, but may be less convenient to implemen...
متن کاملImpact of Population Stratification on Family-Based Association in an Admixed Population
Population substructure is a well-known confounder in population-based case-control genetic studies, but its impact in family-based studies is unclear. We performed population substructure analysis using extended families of admixed population to evaluate power and Type I error in an association study framework. Our analysis shows that power was improved by 1.5% after principal components adjus...
متن کاملMarginal Analysis of A Population-Based Genetic Association Study of Quantitative Traits with Incomplete Longitudinal Data
A common study to investigate gene-environment interaction is designed to be longitudinal and population-based. Data arising from longitudinal association studies often contain missing responses. Naive analysis without taking missingness into account may produce invalid inference, especially when the missing data mechanism depends on the response process. To address this issue in the ana...
متن کاملPopulation stratification and spurious allelic association.
Great efforts and expense have been expended in attempts to detect genetic polymorphisms contributing to susceptibility to complex human disease. Concomitantly, technology for detection and scoring of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has undergone rapid development, extensive catalogues of SNPs across the genome have been constructed, and SNPs have been increasingly used as a means for in...
متن کاملComparison of Population-Based Association Study Methods Correcting for Population Stratification
Population stratification can cause spurious associations in population-based association studies. Several statistical methods have been proposed to reduce the impact of population stratification on population-based association studies. We simulated a set of stratified populations based on the real haplotype data from the HapMap ENCODE project, and compared the relative power, type I error rate...
