[HTML][HTML] Within-sibship genome-wide association analyses decrease bias in estimates of direct genetic effects

…, E Corfield, CC Dahm, DR Dokuru, LM Evans… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
Estimates from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of unrelated individuals capture
effects of inherited variation (direct effects), demography (population stratification, assortative …

No support for historical candidate gene or candidate gene-by-interaction hypotheses for major depression across multiple large samples

R Border, EC Johnson, LM Evans… - American Journal of …, 2019 - Am Psychiatric Assoc
Objective: Interest in candidate gene and candidate gene-by-environment interaction hypotheses
regarding major depressive disorder remains strong despite controversy surrounding …

Comparison of methods that use whole genome data to estimate the heritability and genetic architecture of complex traits

LM Evans, R Tahmasbi, SI Vrieze, GR Abecasis… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
Multiple methods have been developed to estimate narrow-sense heritability, h 2 , using
single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in unrelated individuals. However, a comprehensive …

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in asymptomatic outpatients with cirrhotic ascites

LT Evans, RW Kim, JJ Poterucha, PS Kamath - Hepatology, 2003 - journals.lww.com

[HTML][HTML] A mirror code for protein-cholesterol interactions in the two leaflets of biological membranes

J Fantini, C Di Scala, LS Evans, PTF Williamson… - Scientific reports, 2016 - nature.com
Cholesterol controls the activity of a wide range of membrane receptors through specific
interactions and identifying cholesterol recognition motifs is therefore critical for understanding …

Within-sibship GWAS improve estimates of direct genetic effects

…, P Christofidou, CC Dahm, DR Dokuru, LM Evans… - BioRxiv, 2021 - biorxiv.org
Estimates from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) represent a combination of the
effect of inherited genetic variation (direct effects), demography (population stratification, …
