High-dimensional statistical inference for linkage disequilibrium score regression and its cross-ancestry extensions
连锁不平衡评分回归及跨祖源扩展的高维统计推断
Linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC) has emerged as an essential tool for genetic and genomic analyses of complex traits, utilizing high-dimensional data derived from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). LDSC computes the linkage disequilibrium (LD) scores using an external reference panel, and integrates the LD scores with only summary data from the original GWAS. In this paper, we investigate LDSC within a fixed-effect data integration framework, underscoring…
