## Abstract Genomeโwide scans of nucleotide variation in human subjects are providing an increasing number of replicated associations with complex disease traits. Most of the variants detected have small effects and, collectively, they account for a small fraction of the total genetic variance. Ver
## Abstract Caseโcontrol association studies often collect extensive information on secondary phenotypes, which are quantitative or qualitative traits other than the caseโcontrol status. Exploring secondary phenotypes can yield valuable insights into biological pathways and identify genetic variant
## Abstract The possible evidence for association comprises three types of information: differences between cases and controls in allele frequencies, in parameters for HardyโWeinberg disequilibrium (HWD), and in parameters for linkage disequilibrium (LD). LD between marker and disease alleles resul
