Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University, 2009.
In genetic association studies, especially in longitudinal cohort studies, subjects may exist who have phenotypic data but who have no genetic data. One analysis option is to study those who have complete data on phenotypes and genotypes (complete case analysis), but this approach has lower precision and may introduce bias if those missing genotype data are not representative of the full cohort. For example, the Offspring Cohort of the Framingham Heart Study was genotyped only partially because blood for DNA samples was collected about 30 years after enrollment. Participants who died before sample collection could not contribute genetic data. Thus, results for genes associated with survival may be misrepresented in a complete case analysis. In this thesis, I examine methods for detecting mortality-related genetic variants. First, I explore the use of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and Mantel's test of trend for detecting such variants. Mantel's trend test for correlation between age group and genotype distribution is practical and has good power. Second, I studied the genetic effect associated with an intermediate event such as time to cardiovascular disease. I used simulations to study the bias caused by analyzing only genotyped individuals. The bias is away from the null hypothesis that there is no association between a genetic variant and the phenotype; its magnitude depends on the true genetic effect size and the proportion of missingness. In general, the bias is 4% to 6% for a typical middle-aged cohort after 30 years of follow up. Third, in the context of Cox's proportional hazard models for time to event, I develop two easily applied approaches for imputing genotype data for individuals who were not genotyped: (i) multiple imputation based on predicted genotype probabilities, and (ii) an expectation-maximization (EM)-like iterative approach using weights. Both methods reduce bias and improve estimation precision compared with complete case analysis. The methods can be implemented using routine statistical packages such as Statistical Analysis System (SAS). In summary, this thesis expands the collection of methods for studying mortality related genetic variants and methods for studying genotype effect on intermediate events with incompletely observed genetic data.
