Network-based SNP meta-analysis identifies joint and disjoint genetic features across common human diseases

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have provided a large set of genetic loci influencing the risk for many common diseases. Association studies typically analyze one specific trait in single populations in an isolated fashion wit...
