Statistical adjustment of genotyping error in a case-control study of childhood leukaemia

Genotyping has become more cost-effective and less invasive with the use of buccal cell...

Common variants at the MHC locus and at chromosome 16q24.1 predispose to Barrett's esophagus

Barrett's esophagus is an increasingly common disease that is strongly associated with reflux of stomach acid and usually a hiatus hernia,...

Genome-wide association study of intraocular pressure identifies the GLCCI1/ICA1 region as a glaucoma susceptibility locus

We found a novel association between intraocular pressure and a common variant at 7p21 near to GLCCI1 and ICA1.

Geographic information systems and applied spatial statistics are efficient

Applied Spatial Statistics used in conjunction with geographic information systems (GIS) provide an efficient tool for the surveillance of diseases

Comparative analyses of whole genome sequences of Leishmania infantum isolates from humans and dogs in northeastern Brazil

Overall the analyses do not suggest individual sequence variants account for differences in clinical outcome or adaptation to different hosts.

Association between male genital anomalies and adult male reproductive disorders: a population-based data linkage study spanning more than 40 years

We provide new evidence to support current guidelines for orchidopexy before age 18 months to decrease the risk of future testicular cancer and infertility

FANTOM5 CAGE profiles of human and mouse samples

Resulting data represents the consequence of transcriptional regulation in each analyzed state of mammalian cells.

An in silico pipeline to filter the Toxoplasma gondii proteome for proteins that could traffic to the host cell nucleus and influence host cell epigenetic regulation

To identify genes with putative epigenetic functions, we developed an in silico pipeline to interrogate the T. gondii proteome of 8313 proteins

Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency (ARSA-PD), hypertension and chronic renal disease in Aboriginal Australians

Traits associated with CVD, CRD and T2D in Aboriginal Australians provide novel insight into function of Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency variants

Genetic and environmental factors in the aetiology of hypospadias

The increasing use of assisted reproductive techniques and hormonal manipulation during pregnancy may have been associated with an apparent rise in the...
