A gene based approach to test genetic association based on an Optimally Weighted Combination of Multiple Traits

2019-03-28

Abstract excerpt

There is increasing evidence showing that pleiotropy is a widespread phenomenon in complex diseases for which multiple correlated traits are often measured. Joint analysis of multiple traits could increase statistical power by aggregating multiple weak effects. Existing methods for multiple trait association tests usually study each of the multiple traits separately and then combine the univariate test statistics...
