Modeling with measured genotypes: effects of the vitamin D receptor gene, age, and latent genetic and environmental factors on bone mineral density.

Behavior genetics - 1 Mar 2004

Abstract excerpt

We use empirical data to demonstrate a recently proposed framework for including measured genotypes in structural equation models (Van den Oord and Snieder, 2002). The sample consisted of 227 MZ pairs, 197 DZ pairs, and 41 DZ twins without co-twin. The mean age of the female twins was 57 years. The analysis aimed at studying the effect of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphism (VDRGP) on bone mineral...
