Message in a bottleneck: Nested founder effects from French Polynesia to Rapa Nui and Hawaiʻi

Founder effects can lead to strong, population-specific allele frequency differentiation, including autosomal recessive conditions. Their characterization in European-descent groups, such as the Finnish and Amish, has resulted in actionable genetic tests for each. We show that Po...

Exploring the potential of cluster analysis in identifying disease phenotypes in CPPD: Moving from intuition to insight

BACKGROUND: Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is a heterogeneous condition and is frequently misdiagnosed due to the different clinical presentations and variable disease progression. Aim of this study is to identify clinical phenotypes of CPPD disease by integratin...
