Estimating Odds Ratios in Genome Scans: An Approximate Conditional Likelihood Approach

The American Journal of Human Genetics, 82(5), 1064–1074.

MeSH headings : Genome, Human; Haplotypes; Humans; Likelihood Functions; Models, Genetic; Odds Ratio; Software
TL;DR: This work introduces a method, based on the estimate of genetic effect and its standard error as reported by standard statistical software, to correct for this bias in case-control association studies and develops a principled method to construct confidence intervals for the genetic effect that acknowledges the conditioning on statistical significance.
