Detecting and exploiting etiologic heterogeneity in epidemiologic studies.

American journal of epidemiology - 15 Sept 2012

Begg Colin B, Zabor Emily C

Abstract excerpt

Contemporary searches for new risk factors frequently involve genome-wide explorations of very large numbers of candidate risk variants. Given that diseases can often be classified into subtypes that possess evidence of etiologic heterogeneity, the question arises as to whether or not a search fo...
