Detecting rare variants for complex traits using family and unrelated data.

TL;DR: This work proposes two designs, sibpair and unrelated‐case designs, to detect rare genetic variants in either a candidate gene‐based or genome‐wide association analysis, and shows that they can detect and classify together rare risk haplotypes using a relatively small sample with either of these designs, and can also be applied to resequencing data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-marker association tests yield new disease associations for coronary artery disease and hypertension

TL;DR: It is shown that novel, multiple-marker, statistical methods can be of use in finding variants in GWAS and many new, associated variants for both CAD and HTN are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide searching of rare genetic variants in WTCCC data

TL;DR: The analysis suggests that searching for rare genetic variants is feasible in current GWA studies and candidate gene studies, and the results can severe as guides to future resequencing studies to identify the underlying rare functional variants.
