Integrating Multiple Correlated Phenotypes for Genetic Association Analysis by Maximizing Heritability.

Abstract excerpt

Many correlated disease variables are analyzed jointly in genetic studies in the hope of increasing power to detect causal genetic variants. One approach involves assessing the relationship between each phenotype and each SNP individually and using a Bonferroni correction for the effective number of tests conducted. Alternatively, one can apply a multivariate regression or a dimension reduction technique, such as...
