Optimal methods for meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Nov 2011

Zhou Baiyu, Shi Jianxin, Whittemore Alice S

Abstract excerpt

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies involves testing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using summary statistics that are weighted sums of site-specific score or Wald statistics. This approach avoids having to pool individual-level data. We describe the weights that maximize the...
