X Abstract

Genome scans for osteoarthritis (OA) have yielded inconsistent results. The absence of replication of linkage might be due to the lack of power of individual studies. A meta-analysis of published data was performed to assess evidence for linkage of OA across genome scan studies. Three OA whole-genome scans including 893 families with 3,000 affected individuals were used for genome scan meta-analysis (GSMA). A total of five bins lie above 95% confidence level (P=0.05) and one bin is above 99% confidence level (P=0.01) in OA GSMA; bins 7.6 (7q34-7q36.3, P (sumrnk) =0.0035), 11.3 (11p12-11q13.4), 6.3 (6p21.1-6q15), 2.8 (2q31.1-2q34) and 15.3 (15q21.3-15q26.1). The highest summed bin was bins 7.6. In conclusion, the OA GSMA has shown that chromosome 7q34-7q36.3 have the highest summed rank and four additional loci with significant summed ranks across studies.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
