Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) often collect data on multiple correlated traits for complex diseases, conventional gene-based analysis is usually univariate, and therefore, treating traits as uncorrelated. Multivariate analysis of multiple correlated traits can potentially increase the power to detect genes that affect some or all of these traits. In this study, we propose the multivariate...
