Abstract excerpt
Genetic heterogeneity is a common problem for genome-wide association studies of complex human diseases. Ordered-subset analysis (OSA) reduces genetic heterogeneity and optimizes the use of phenotypic information, thus improving power under some disease models. We hypothesized that in a genetically heterogeneous disorder such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), utilizing OSA by age at onset (AAO) of AD may increase the...
