• Genome-wide scans meta-analysis for pulse pressure 

      Zintzaras, E.; Kitsios, G.; Kent, D.; Camp, N. J.; Atwood, L.; Hopkins, P. N.; Hunt, S. C. (2007)
      Genome scans for identifying susceptibility loci for pulse pressure have produced inconclusive results. A heterogeneity-based genome search meta-analysis was applied to available genome-scan data on pulse pressure. A genome ...
    • Heterogeneity testing in meta-analysis of genome searches 

      Zintzaras, E.; Ioannidis, J. P. A. (2005)
      Genome searches for identifying susceptibility loci for the same complex disease often give inconclusive or inconsistent results. Genome Search Meta-analysis (GSMA) is an established non-parametric method to identify genetic ...
    • Heterogeneity-based genome search meta-analysis for preeclampsia 

      Zintzaras, E.; Kitsios, G.; Harrison, G. A.; Laivuori, H.; Kivinen, K.; Kere, J.; Messinis, I.; Stefanidis, I.; Ioannidis, J. P. A. (2006)
      Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related disorder that causes maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Its exact inheritance pattern is still unknown, and genome searches for identifying susceptibility loci for preeclampsia ...
    • Is 472G/A catechol-O-methyl-transferase gene polymorphism related to panic disorder? 

      Zintzaras, E.; Sakelaridis, N. (2007)
      Objectives Case-control studies relating 472G/A catechol-O-methyl-transferase polymorphism with the risk of developing panic disorder showed inconclusive or contradictory results. To shed some light on these results a ...
    • Meta-analysis of genome-wide scans provides evidence for sex- and site-specific regulation of bone mass 

      Ioannidis, J. P. A.; Ng, M. Y.; Sham, P. C.; Zintzaras, E.; Lewis, C. M.; Deng, H. W.; Econs, M. J.; Karasik, D.; Devoto, M.; Kammerer, C. M.; Spector, T.; Andrew, T.; Cupples, L. A.; Duncan, E. L.; Foroud, T.; Kiel, D. P.; Koller, D.; Langdahl, B.; Mitchell, B. D.; Peacock, M.; Recker, R.; Shen, H.; Sol-Church, K.; Spotila, L. D.; Uitterlinden, A. G.; Wilson, S. G.; Kung, A. W. C.; Ralston, S. H. (2007)
      Introduction: BMD is a heritable trait and an important predictor of osteoporotic fracture risk. Several genome-wide scans have been performed in an attempt to detect loci that regulate BMD, but there has been limited ...
