Functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA) is a common cause of amenorrhea and chronic anovulation in adolescent girls and young women, diagnosed after excluding other organic causes. It is commonly ass...
The molecular processes underlying human health and disease are highly complex. Often, genetic and environmental factors contribute to a given disease or phenotype in a non-additive manner, yielding a...
Misclassification bias is a common concern in epidemiologic studies. Despite strong bias on main effects, gene-environment interactions have been shown to be biased towards the null under gene-environ...
We derive equations to quantify the bias of the interaction, and numerically illustrate these results by simulating a case-control study of 1000 cases and 1000 controls. Simulation input parameters in...
We show that, even if gene-environment independence is violated, we can bound possible gene-environment interactions by knowing the strength and direction of the gene-environment dependence ( ) and th...
Even if gene-environment dependence exists, we may still be able to identify gene-environment interactions even when misclassification bias is present....
There is credible evidence that environmental factors influence individual risk and/or severity of autism spectrum disorders (hereafter referred to as autism). While it is likely that environmental ch...
Gene-environment (G-E) interaction analysis plays an important role in studying complex diseases. Extensive methodological research has been conducted on G-E interaction analysis, and the existing met...
Mathematical ability is influenced by genes and environment. This study focused on the effect of DRD2, a candidate gene for working memory, on mathematical ability. The results in child participants r...
Neural tube defects (NTDs) consist of severe structural malformations of the brain and spinal cord and are the second most common structural birth defect in humans, accounting for approximately 2700 a...
The abuse of psychogenic drugs can lead to multiple health-related problems. Genetic and environmental vulnerabilities are factors in the emergence of substance use disorders. Empirical evidence regar...
We reviewed published studies, until March 1, 2022, on substance use for candidate gene-environment interaction. Basic demographics of the included studies, target genes, environmental factors, main f...
Among a total of 44 studies, 38 demonstrated at least one significant interaction effect. About 61.5% of studies on the 5-HTTLPR gene, 100% on the MAOA gene, 42.9% on the DRD2 gene, 50% on the DRD4 ge...
The gene-environment interaction research on substance use behavior is methodologically multidimensional, which causes difficulty in conducting pooled analysis, or stated differently-making it hard to...
In our commentary we ask whether we should ultimately endeavour to find the deep causes of behaviours? Then we discuss two extensions of the proposed framework: (1) Mendelian randomisation and (2) hyp...
Gene-environment (GxE) interactions are an important and sophisticated component in the manifestation of complex phenotypes. Simple univariate tests lack statistical power due to the need for multiple...
