National guidelines from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommend the use of family-health-history (FHH)-based risk assessment tools to guide genetic testing (GT) among women with an in...
Bayesian Mendelian Randomization methods for Index Trait Bias correction in subsequent trait genome-wide association studies [0.03%]
用于后续性状全基因组关联研究的索引性状偏差校正的孟德尔随机化方法
Nimish Adhikari,Kathryn L Lunetta,David Gagnon et al.
Nimish Adhikari et al.
Index-Trait bias (also called Index-Event Bias) can occur in genetic studies due to conditioning on incident trait, which can bias genetic associations with subsequent traits. We propose the use of two Bayesian Mendelian Randomization (MR) ...

视黄酸受体-γ信号转导受损与一种尿路上皮角化鳞状移行的遗传形式有关
Kaya Fukushima,Nicole Avery,Jade Desjardins et al.
Kaya Fukushima et al.
Keratinising desquamative squamous metaplasia (KDSM) of the urinary tract is typically a sporadic condition with unclear aetiology and treatment options. It is characterised by either a focal or widespread transition of normal urothelium of...
