Abstract excerpt
Common burden tests have different statistical performance in genetic association studies of rare variants. Here, we compare the statistical performance of burden tests, such as CMC, WST, SUM and extension methods, using the computer-simulated datasets of rare variants with different parameters of sample sizes, linkage disequilibrium (LD), and different numbers of mixed non-associated variants. The simulation...
