Abstract excerpt
Identifying and interpreting pleiotropic loci is essential to understanding the shared etiology among diseases and complex traits. A common approach to mapping pleiotropic loci is to meta-analyze GWAS summary statistics across multiple traits. However, this strategy does not account for the complex genetic architectures of traits, such as genetic correlations and heritabilities. Furthermore, the interpretation is...
