Translating genome wide association study results to associations among common diseases: In silico study with an electronic medical record

Highlights • An in silico model on the basis of summary GWAS and SNP LD data was built to represent a disease map. • Clinical data from a large and long running EMR was used to validate this disease map. • SNP-to-disease linkage explains only a small fraction of associations among diseases in an EMR...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • An in silico model on the basis of summary GWAS and SNP LD data was built to represent a disease map. • Clinical data from a large and long running EMR was used to validate this disease map. • SNP-to-disease linkage explains only a small fraction of associations among diseases in an EMR. • Thus far clinical data has much greater predictive power for all diseases measured.
