DESCRIPTION:

List of positional candidate genes after correcting for multiple testing and controlling the false discovery rate from genome wide association studies (GWAS) retrieved from the NHGRI-EBI Catalog of published genome-wide association studies (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/). The disease/trait examined in this study, as reported by the authors, was Stroke (ischemic). The EFO term stroke was annotated to this set after curation by NHGRI-EBI. Intergenic SNPS were mapped to both the upstream and downstream gene. P-value uploaded. This gene set was generated using gwas2gs v. 0.1.8 and the GWAS Catalog v. 1.0.1.

Annals of neurology Oct 2008, Vol 64, pp. 402-9

ABSTRACT:

To find sequence variants that associate with the risk for ischemic stroke (IS), we performed a genome-wide association study. PUBMED: 18991354
