Abstract excerpt
Inflation in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) summary statistics represents a major challenge, for which correction methods have been developed. These include the genomic control (GC) method, which uses the λ-value to correct summary statistics, and the linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSR) method, which uses the LDSR intercept. By using type 2 diabetes (T2D) as an exemplar, we explore factors...
