Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic control for association studies.

TL;DR: The performance of the genomic control method is quite good for plausible effects of liability genes, which bodes well for future genetic analyses of complex disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synaptic, transcriptional and chromatin genes disrupted in autism

Silvia De Rubeis, +99 more
- 13 Nov 2014 - 
TL;DR: Using exome sequencing, it is shown that analysis of rare coding variation in 3,871 autism cases and 9,937 ancestry-matched or parental controls implicates 22 autosomal genes at a false discovery rate of < 0.05, plus a set of 107 genes strongly enriched for those likely to affect risk (FDR < 0.30).
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs

S. Hong Lee, +405 more
- 01 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: Empirical evidence of shared genetic etiology for psychiatric disorders can inform nosology and encourages the investigation of common pathophysiologies for related disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional impact of global rare copy number variation in autism spectrum disorders

Dalila Pinto, +181 more
- 15 Jul 2010 - 
TL;DR: The genome-wide characteristics of rare (<1% frequency) copy number variation in ASD are analysed using dense genotyping arrays to reveal many new genetic and functional targets in ASD that may lead to final connected pathways.
