Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic variation in a population has an influence on the manifestation of monogenic as well as multifactorial disorders, with the underlying genetic contribution dependent on several interacting variants.

Therefore, outcomes of rodent studies show limited relevance to human disease....
