• From single-SNP to wide-locus: genome-wide association studies identifying functionally related genes and intragenic regions in small sample studies

  Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have had limited success when applied to complex diseases. Analyzing SNPs individually requires several large studies to integrate the often divergent results. In the presence of epistasis, multivariate approaches based on the linear model (includin more

• Understanding of Statistical Terms Routinely Used in Meta-Analyses: An International Survey among Researchers

  by Michael N. Mavros, Vangelis G. Alexiou, Konstantinos Z. Vardakas, Matthew E. Falagas Objective Biomedical literature is increasingly enriched with literature reviews and meta-analyses. We sought to assess the understanding of statistical terms routinely used in such studies, among researchers. more
