HOW TO ANALYZE AND PRESENT GENETIC EPIDEMIOLOGY DATA IN CANDIDATE STUDIES
Abstract
Here we describe recent trends in statistical analysis and data presentation in candidate genetic association studies. We first discuss methods of genetic epidemiology following talking about the three key steps in candidate genetic association studies: 1) study design; 2) isolation of biomaterial, DNA extraction and genotyping; 3) statistical analysis and data presentation. In addition, we consider the crucial issues of these studies from the reviewer’s point of view.
