Gene association pitfalls
Reviews of the many genetic association studies published recently give pause for thought: there are many false positives and questionable genotype–phenotype associations in the literature. A working group set up by the National Cancer Institute and National Human Genome Research Institute has been tackling the thorny question of what constitutes replication of a genotype–phenotype association, and the initial results are published this week. Guidelines on best practice for reporting initial and replication studies are presented. But it's clear that a series of studies is sometimes necessary to confirm critical genotype–phenotype associations. |
