## Abstract Meta‐analyses of genetic association studies are usually performed using a single polymorphism at a time, even though in many cases the individual studies report results from partially overlapping sets of polymorphisms. We present here a multipoint (or multilocus) method for multivariat

## Abstract Several approaches have been proposed to classify populations into ethnic groups using people's names, as an alternative to ethnicity self‐identification information when this is not available. These methodologies have been developed, primarily in the public health and population geneti

## Abstract ## Objective To quantify by meta‐analysis the genetic effect of the __HLA–B5__ or __HLA–B51__ (__HLA–B51/B5__) allele on the risk of developing Behçet's disease (BD) and to look for potential effect modifiers. ## Methods Relevant studies were identified using the PubMed Medline datab

## Abstract Nonparametric approaches have been developed that are able to analyze large numbers of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in modest sample sizes. These approaches have different selection features and may not provide similar results when applied to the same dataset. Therefore, we co
