A HapMap harvest of insights into the genetics of common disease
Open accessAbstract
The International HapMap Project was designed to create a genome-wide database of patterns of human genetic variation, with the expectation that these patterns would be useful for genetic association studies of common diseases. This expectation has been amply fulfilled with just the initial output of genome-wide association studies, identifying nearly 100 loci for nearly 40 common diseases and traits. These associations provided new insights into pathophysiology, suggesting previously unsuspected etiologic pathways for common diseases that will be of use in identifying new therapeutic targets and developing targeted interventions based on genetically defined risk. In addition, HapMap-based discoveries have shed new light on the impact of evolutionary pressures on the human genome, suggesting multiple loci important for adapting to disease-causing pathogens and new environments. In this review we examine the origin, development, and current status of the HapMap; its prospects for continued evolution; and its current and potential future impact on biomedical science.

Data pooling in genomics research has enabled knowledge of disease-related loci to be expanded substantially.
“A relevant example is evident in genomics research, in which data pooling has, e.g., enabled knowledge of disease-related loci to be expanded substantially [e.g.Lambert et al. (2013); Manolio et al. (2008); Schizophrenia Working Group of the Psychiatric Genomics (2014)], findings which would not have been possible without the sample sizes offered through data-sharing.”

The Abstract reports that genome-wide association studies identified nearly 100 loci for nearly 40 diseases and traits. The section on limitations says collaboration across studies has demonstrated benefits and that very large samples are needed. But the paper does not specifically establish that pooling data produced those locus discoveries or that they would have been impossible without data-sharing. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredResearch in other fields has benefited substantially from data-sharing initiatives.

Genome-wide association studies focused on common single nucleotide variants have identified some disease-associated variants, but most genetic variants contributing to complex disease susceptibility remain undiscovered.
“Despite the success of genome wide association (GWA) studies in identifying common single nucleotide variants (SNVs) that contribute to complex diseases1, the vast majority of genetic variants contributing to disease susceptibility are yet to be discovered.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
