A genome-wide association study of outcome from traumatic brain injury

Abstract excerpt

Background Factors such as age, pre-injury health, and injury severity, account for less than 35% of outcome variability in traumatic brain injury (TBI). While some residual outcome variability may be attributable to genetic factors, published candidate gene association studies have often been underpowered and subject to publication bias. Methods We performed the first genome- and transcriptome-wide association...
