Because most of these variants have individually small effects on disease risk, successful gene discovery efforts have required large sample sizes (involving thousands, tens, or hundreds of thousands of cases and controls) to achieve sufficient study power. Amassing such sample sizes has depended on international collaboration on a scale never seen before in human genetics or even in clinical research. Disease-specific consortia bringing together many individual sites and collaborators have now evolved for many major diseases. Each consortium has faced with ≥2 fundamental questions: how to assemble a study sample of sufficient size, homogeneity, and phenotypic quality and how to retain and analyze, sometimes repeatedly over several years, biological samples from enrolled subjects.]]> Thu 10 Sep 2020 18:07:31 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25277 −11; odds ratio (OR) = 1.42, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.28–1.57). All four loci exhibited evidence for heterogeneity of effect across the stroke subtypes, with some and possibly all affecting risk for only one subtype. This suggests distinct genetic architectures for different stroke subtypes.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:38:17 AEDT ]]>
