GWASdb, GWASdb includes a more comprehensive data curation and knowledge
integration for SNP-trait associations from GWAS for PubMed and other resources
[83]. For example, the curated moderate SNP-trait associations (p < 1.0 × 10
−3 )
are annotated in GWASdb. However, this low threshold of SNP-trait associations (p
< 1.0 × 10
−3 ) often causes potential false positive rate.
PheWAS Catalog, The PheWAS Catalog contains SNP-trait associations identified by the phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) paradigm within electronic
medical records, an unbiased approach to replication and discovery that interrogates
relationships between targeted genotypes and multiple phenotypes [84]. Thus, the
PheWAS Catalog may complement data incompleteness from traditional GWAS.
HuGE Navigator, The HuGE Navigator is an integrated disease candidate gene
database based on the core data from PubMed abstracts using text mining algorithms
[85]. To keep the data quality, the literature-reported disease-gene annotation data
with known PubMed IDs from HuGE Navigator are often used.
