A frequentist test of proportional colocalization after selecting relevant genetic variants
选择相关遗传变异后的比例共定位频率学检验
Colocalization analyses assess whether two traits are affected by the same or distinct causal genetic variants in a single gene region. A class of Bayesian colocalization tests are now routinely used in practice; for example, for genetic analyses in drug development pipelines. In this work, we consider an alternative frequentist approach to colocalization testing that examines the proportionality of genetic associations with each trait. The proportional colocalization…
