Genetics and epidemiology of mutational barcode-defined clonal hematopoiesis

Identification of CH cases from WGS in ISL and UKB We used WGS from 45,510 Icelanders and 130,709 British ancestry participants from the UKB17,18. Average sequencing depth was 33× for UKB and 38× for ISL. Participants with prior diagnoses of hematological disorders or grossly abnormal hematology measurements on entry were…

Rare variant association analysis (SKAT-O)

Hello everyone, I was wondering if it is statistically acceptable to perform SKAT-O analysis one a single gene. To elaborate, I am looking in a miRNA gene (80nt length) and I have found a small number of rare variants present in my case group, but none in my control group….
