Meta-Analysis of Genetic Association Studies
Meta-analysis, a statistical tool for combining results across studies, is becoming popular as a method for resolving discrepancies in genetic association studies. Persistent difficulties in obtaining robust, replicable results in genetic association studies are almost certainly because genetic effects are small, requiring studies with many thousands of subjects to be detected. In this article,...

Participating studies will usually have been independently designed and implemented in unique settings that are potential sources of phenotype, anc...
