Assortative mating and within-spouse pair comparisons
Howe, Laurence J.; Battram, Thomas; Morris, Tim T.; Hartwig, Fernando P.; Hemani, Gibran; Davies, Neil Martin; Smith, George Davey (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Spousal comparisons have been proposed as a design that can both reduce confounding and estimate effects of the shared adulthood environment. However, assortative mating, the process by which individuals select phenotypically ... -
Evaluating indirect genetic effects of siblings using singletons
Howe, Laurence J.; Evans, David M.; Hemani, Gibran; Smith, George Davey; Davies, Neil Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Estimating effects of parental and sibling genotypes (indirect genetic effects) can provide insight into how the family environment influences phenotypic variation. There is growing molecular genetic evidence for effects ... -
Taller height and risk of coronary heart disease and cancer: A within-sibship Mendelian randomization study
Howe, Laurence J.; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Rasheed, Humaira; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Davey Smith, George; Davies, Neil Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Taller people have a lower risk of coronary heart disease but a higher risk of many cancers. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies in unrelated individuals (population MR) have suggested that these relationships ... -
Within-sibship genome-wide association analyses decrease bias in estimates of direct genetic effects
