Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic variants that contribute to asthma susceptibility might be present at varying frequencies in different populations, which is an important consideration and advantage for performing genetic association studies in admixed populations. OBJECTIVE: We sought to identify asthma-asso...
