Endophenotype Network Models: Common Core of Complex Diseases
Historically, human diseases have been differentiated and categorized based on the organ system in which they primarily manifest. Recently, an alternative view is emerging that emphasizes that different diseases often have common underlying mechanisms and shared intermediate pathophenotypes, or endo(pheno)types. Within this framework, a specific disease's expression is a consequence of the inte...
متن کاملGene and Network Analysis of Common Variants Reveals Novel Associations in Multiple Complex Diseases
Genome-wide association (GWA) studies typically lack power to detect genotypes significantly associated with complex diseases, where different causal mutations of small effect may be present across cases. A common, tractable approach for identifying genomic elements associated with complex traits is to evaluate combinations of variants in known pathways or gene sets with shared biological funct...
متن کاملExchangeable models of complex inherited diseases.
A model of unlinked diallelic loci affecting the risk of a complex inherited disease is explored. The loci are equivalent in their effect on disease risk and are in Hardy-Weinberg and linkage equilibrium. The goal is to determine what assumptions about dependence of disease risk on genotype are consistent with data for diseases such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism, and multiple scler...
متن کاملEmergency Management of Common Diseases in Children
Acute respiratory infections, diarrhea and fever are very common in children below the age of five years. All children suffer from these illnesses several times each year. However, during natural disasters like floods children are even more vulnerable to these diseases and death. Pneumonia, diarrhea, measles and malaria, and associated malnutrition, are responsible for over 60% deaths in childr...
