A note on the use of the generalized odds ratio in meta-analysis of association studies involving bi- and tri-allelic polymorphisms
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The generalized odds ratio (GOR) was recently suggested as a genetic model-free measure for association studies. However, its properties were not extensively investigated. We used Monte Carlo simulations to investigate type-I error r...
