TABLE 5.

Power of the association test based on statistic Tgene assuming one disease locus in a tested gene under different sample sizes and different simulation schemes. The power for the single SNP analysis is given in parenthesis

MS program
LD based (r2 = 0.9)
Disease model (prev, GRR) n = 200 n = 400 n = 200 n = 400
Additive (0.1, 1.4) 0.370 (0.255) 0.588 (0.607) 0.438 (0.305) 0.766 (0.651)
(0.1, 1.6) 0.602 (0.555) 0.897 (0.902) 0.681 (0.577) 0.943 (0.934)
Multiplicative (0.1, 1.4) 0.402 (0.367) 0.735 (0.752) 0.521 (0.384) 0.808 (0.751)

prev, population prevalence; GRR, genotype relative risk. For both simulation schemes, we set the third SNP as the disease locus. The disease allele frequency for the LD-based simulation is set as PD = 0.3. The significance level is 0.05.
