Heritability Informed Power Optimization (HIPO) Leads to Enhanced Detection of Genetic Associations Across Multiple Traits
2017-11-12
Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies have shown that pleiotropy is a common phenomenon that can potentially be exploited for enhanced detection of susceptibility loci. We propose heritability informed power optimization (HIPO) for conducting powerful pleiotropic analysis using summary-level association statistics. We find optimal linear combinations of association coefficients across traits that are expected to maximiz...
