Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified more than 20 genetic loci as risk predictors associated with stroke. However, these studies were generally performed for single-trait and failed to consider the pleiotropic effects of these risk genes among the multiple risk factors for stroke. In this study, we applied a novel metaCCA method followed by gene-based VEGAS2 analysis to identify the risk genes...
