Hmm, the veterans affairs website says: The file it links to is a 2011 document, but the above study (which appears to be commissioned by the VA) is from 2015. Edit: See appendix A for the literature review from the VA in 2009 that found the evidence was not sufficiently strong to connect PB...

Note that the script hotblack posted includes a lot of extras for convenience, like remembering settings for future runs. These are the only required steps we used: FUMA does make MAGMA much easier (though requires converting to GRCh37). I've been looking for other online tools for analyzing...

Information from Veterans Affairs: Bateman Horne Center says this for dosages for orthostatic intolerance: Interestingly, potentially lower dosage for military than for OI patients.

I think ketamine has been regarded as one of the most promising psychiatric drugs, but this seems to show the effect may not be so impressive, at least for suicidality.

Note this is not a new study. This is a very wide-ranging review of gulf war illness research published up to 2015. I'm particularly interested in how sure they appear to be that pyridostigmine bromide (PB) (AKA Mestinon) and pesticides are causally linked to GWI. Table 4 summarizes all the...

EBV specifically seems to increase the risk of the neurological damage of MS, so maybe there's some common pathway, even if totally different neurological effects.

Just want to post the following because it slightly goes against the postsynapse specifically part. @hotblack and I managed to get standalone MAGMA working. The results were similar to doing it on FUMA, but not exactly the same (probably because of mapping to rs ids instead of liftover to...

Hopefully the full paper describes a placebo control. Otherwise, it seems possible the hand grip strength change is placebo effect.

Oh good point. If I'm understanding correctly, the furthest right, uppermost dot is 20:48914387:T:TA (the lead hit in the whole study), but its MAF is around .34.

They reported the raw p-values. In GWAS, they don't exactly use Bonferroni. It's a convention in GWAS to limit to SNPs with a p-value less than 5x10-8. Revisiting the genome-wide significance threshold for common variant GWAS, 2021

We have this other related thread: Lack of fever during acute infections

Why do you say that? The top hits on chr20 were around that p-value.

I decided to continue this train of thought by testing many different brain datasets. The options are split up by brain region, so I selected a few from each. Of course, I included the five datasets I tested before again so that the multiple test correction would include them. Here is the full...
