Severe Early Childhood Obesity
TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)
Case/Control study of TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatic_brain_injury). Goal is to identify enough of a cohort to perform a GWAS of genetic variants associated with adverse outcome in TBI patients.
Diagnosis codes:
MRSA
This algorithm is for MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, read more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRSA).
Heart Failure (HF) with Differentiation between Preserved and Reduced Ejection Fraction
Asthma
Platelet count (PLT) and Mean Platelet Volume (MPV)
Platelets are enucleated cell fragments derived from megakaryocytes that play key roles in hemostasis and in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis and cancer. Platelet traits are highly heritable and identification of genetic variants associated with platelet traits and assessing their pleiotropic effects may help to understand the role of underlying biological pathways.
Drug Induced Liver Injury
