Genome-wide association study heterogeneous cohort homogenization via subject weight knock-down.

Population structure can be a source of both false-positive and false-negative findings in a genome-wide association study. This article proposes an approach that helps to reduce the false-positives. It consists of homogenizing the diseased/healthy phenotype ratio across the cohort, by decreasing th...

description Population structure can be a source of both false-positive and false-negative findings in a genome-wide association study.

After homogenization, the cohort is statistically handled as if originating from a single well-mixed population. The method was applied to homogenize a Parkinson's disease genome-wide association study cohort.
