Claims of sex differences: an empirical assessment in genetic associations.

JAMA - 22 Aug 2007

Patsopoulos Nikolaos A, Tatsioni Athina, Ioannidis John P A

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Many studies try to probe for differences in risks between men and women, and this is a major challenge in the expanding literature of associations between genetic variants and common diseases or traits. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether prominently claimed sex differences for genetic effects have sufficient internal and external validity. DATA SOURCES: We searched PubMed through July 6, 2007, for genetic...
