Pathway analysis of rare variants for the clustered phenotypes by using hierarchical structured components analysis

Abstract Backgrounds Recent large-scale genetic studies often involve clustered phenotypes such as repeated measurements. Compared to a series of univariate analyses of single phenotypes, an analysis of clustered phenotypes can be useful for substantially increasing statistical power to detect more...
