Family-based tests of association in the presence of linkageS L Lake
Department of Biostatistics, Harvard School of Public Health, Harvard University, Boston, MA 02115, USA
Am J Hum Genet 67:1515-25. 2000..Since the A2M gene lies in a chromosomal region (chromosome 12p) that consistently has been linked to AD, association tests should be conducted under the null hypothesis that there is linkage but no association...
Sample size re-estimation in cluster randomization trialsStephen Lake
