Rare variants analysis by risk-based variable-threshold method.

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies, as a powerful approach for detecting common variants associated with diseases, have revealed many disease-associated loci. However, the traditional association analysis methods do not have enough power for detecting the effects of rare variants with limited sample size. As a solution to this problem, pooling rare variants by their functions into a composite variant provides an...
