The size and diversity of the collective eMERGE biobank and the rich EMR-linked phenotypic data provide a unique opportunity for cost-effective longitudinal studies in genomic medicine, permitting study of incident disease, age, and period biases, as well as reducing prevalence and incidence bias.
Saw, S.-M. et al. A Cohort Study of Incident Myopia in Singaporean Children.
The study of incident cases provides information about the etiology (or cause) of a disease and its outcome.
We investigated the role of access type on serial levels of inflammatory markers and the role of inflammatory markers in mediating the association of access type and risk of mortality in a prospective study of incident dialysis patients.
METHODS: All subjects were participants in a prospective epidemiologic study of incident SCCHN.
A further study of incident patients presented an average age of 6.7 years at first diagnosis when considering children between 2 and 10 years of age [14].
The INVOR-Study [17] (Study of Incident Dialysis Patients in Vorarlberg) is a single-center, prospective, observational cohort study of incident Caucasian hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients in Vorarlberg, the westernmost province of Austria counting approximately 400,000 inhabitants.
The study at hand investigated the two peptides MR-proANP and MR-proADM in a prospective long-term cohort study of incident dialysis patients.
Here we present an examination of this link through analysis of the CGEMS GWAS breast cancer dataset and subsequent assessment of the predictions in a case-control study of incident breast cancer in Poland.
Given the possible bias in GWAS rank identified above, we examined the top 20 driver kinase variants in the original rank (Table S3, including details of the CGEMS and results below) in a case-control study of incident breast cancer in Szczecin Polandd), previously used in other replications [38].
The first, consisting of tumors from 344 individuals involved in a case-control study of incident bladder cancer in New Hampshire, diagnosed between July 1994 and June 1998 [43], and the second consisting of tumors from 264 individuals diagnosed between January 1 , 2002 to July 30 , 2004 [44]
