Prevalence and risk factors for parent-reported recurrent otitis media during early childhood

The objective was to describe the prevalence and risk factors of recurrent otitis media (rOM) in an urban Australian population at 3 years of age.

Comparison of Methods to Account for Relatedness in Genome-Wide Association Studies with Family-Based Data

Here we compare the performance of several LMM approaches (and software implementations, including EMMAX, GenABEL, FaST-LMM, Mendel, GEMMA and MMM) via their...

Genetic and functional evidence for a locus controlling otitis media at chromosome 10q26.3

Otitis media (OM) is a common childhood disease characterised by middle ear effusion and inflammation.

Genome-wide association study of intraocular pressure identifies the GLCCI1/ICA1 region as a glaucoma susceptibility locus

We found a novel association between intraocular pressure and a common variant at 7p21 near to GLCCI1 and ICA1.

Genome-wide association analysis identifies 13 new risk loci for schizophrenia

Common genetic variation has an important role in the etiology of schizophrenia, and larger studies will allow more detailed understanding of this disorder.

Association between male genital anomalies and adult male reproductive disorders: a population-based data linkage study spanning more than 40 years

Undescended testes is associated with an increased risk of testicular cancer and male infertility, and decreased paternity

Association between male genital anomalies and adult male reproductive disorders: a population-based data linkage study spanning more than 40 years

We provide new evidence to support current guidelines for orchidopexy before age 18 months to decrease the risk of future testicular cancer and infertility

Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency (ARSA-PD), hypertension and chronic renal disease in Aboriginal Australians

Traits associated with CVD, CRD and T2D in Aboriginal Australians provide novel insight into function of Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency variants

An in silico pipeline to filter the Toxoplasma gondii proteome for proteins that could traffic to the host cell nucleus and influence host cell epigenetic regulation

To identify genes with putative epigenetic functions, we developed an in silico pipeline to interrogate the T. gondii proteome of 8313 proteins
