'Racial' differences in genetic effects for complex diseases.

Nature genetics - 1 Dec 2004

Ioannidis John P A, Ntzani Evangelia E, Trikalinos Thomas A

Abstract excerpt

'Racial' differences are frequently debated in clinical, epidemiological and molecular research and beyond. In particular, there is considerable controversy regarding the existence and importance of 'racial' differences in genetic effects for complex diseases influenced by a large number of genes...
