  Whole genome sequences of a male and female supercentenarian, ages greater than 114 years 

  Sebastiani, Paola; Riva, Alberto; Montano, Monty; Pham, Phillip; Torkamani, Ali; Scherba, Eugene; Benson, Gary; Milton, Jacqueline N.; Baldwin, Clinton T.; Andersen, Stacy; Schork, Nicholas J.; Steinberg, Martin H.; Perls, Thomas T. (2011)

  Supercentenarians (age 110+ years old) generally delay or escape age-related diseases and disability well beyond the age of 100 and this exceptional survival is likely to be influenced by a genetic predisposition that ...

  Design of the WHIP-PD study: a phase II, twelve-month, dual-site, randomized controlled trial evaluating the effects of a cognitive-behavioral approach for promoting enhanced walking activity using mobile health technology in people with Parkinson-disease 

  Rawson, K.S.; Cavanaugh, J.T.; Colon-Semenza, C.; DeAngelis, T.; Duncan, R.P.; Fulford, Daniel; LaValley, Michael P.; Mazzoni, P.; Nordahl, T.; Quintiliani, Lisa M.; Saint-Hilaire, Marie-Helene; Thomas, Cathi A.; Earhart, G.M.; Ellis, Theresa D. (2020-04-20)

  BACKGROUND: Parkinson disease (PD) is a debilitating and chronic neurodegenerative disease resulting in ambulation difficulties. Natural walking activity often declines early in disease progression despite the relative ...

  Handling Linkage Disequilibrium in Qualitative Trait Linkage Analysis Using Dense SNPs: A Two-Step Strategy 

  Cho, Kelly; Dupuis, Josée (BioMed Central, 2009-8-10)

  BACKGROUND. In affected sibling pair linkage analysis, the presence of linkage disequilibrium (LD) has been shown to lead to overestimation of the number of alleles shared identity-by-descent (IBD) among sibling pairs when ...

  Cupples, L. Adrienne; Beyene, Joseph; Bickeböller, Heike; Daw, E. Warwick; Fallin, M. Daniele; Gauderman, W. James; Ghosh, Saurabh; Goode, Ellen L.; Hauser, Elizabeth R.; Hinrichs, Anthony; Kent, Jack W.; Martin, Lisa J.; Martinez, Maria; Neuman, Rosalind J.; Province, Michael; Szymczak, Silke; Wilcox, Marsha A.; Ziegler, Andreas; MacCluer, Jean W.; Almasy, Laura (BioMed Central, 2009-12-15)

  Handling Linkage Disequilibrium in Linkage Analysis Using Dense Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms 

  Cho, Kelly; Yang, Qiong; Dupuis, Josée (BioMed Central, 2007-12-18)

  The presence of linkage disequilibrium violates the underlying assumption of linkage equilibrium in most traditional multipoint linkage approaches. Studies have shown that such violation leads to bias in qualitative trait ...

  Genome-Wide Association and Linkage Analysis of Quantitative Traits: Comparison pf Likelihood-Ratio Test and Conditional Score Statistic 

  Hendricks, Audrey E; Zhu, Yanyan; Dupuis, Josée (BioMed Central, 2009-12-15)

  Over the past decade, genetic analysis has shifted from linkage studies, which identify broad regions containing putative trait loci, to genome-wide association studies, which detect the association of a marker with a ...

  Identification of Polymorphisms Explaining a Linkage Signal: Application to the GAW14 Simulated Data 

  Chen, Ming-Huei; Van Eerdewegh, Paul; Dupuis, Josée (BioMed Central, 2005-12-30)

  We applied three approaches for the identification of polymorphisms explaining the linkage evidence to the Genetic Analysis Workshop 14 simulated data: 1) the genotype-IBD sharing test (GIST); 2) an approach suggested by ...
