Although the experimental specifics are similar, typically a different list of statistically significant genes result from each data analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                     <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                        <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                        <jats:p>We propose a statistically-based meta-analytic approach to microarray analysis for the purpose of systematically combining results from the different laboratories. This approach provides a more precise view of genes that are significantly related to the condition of interest while simultaneously allowing for differences between laboratories. Of particular interest is the widely used Affymetrix oligonucleotide array, the results of which are naturally suited to a meta-analysis. A simulation model based on the Affymetrix platform is developed to examine the adaptive nature of the meta-analytic approach and to illustrate the usefulness of such an approach in combining microarray results across laboratories. The approach is then applied to real data involving a mouse model for multiple sclerosis.<\/jats:p>\n                     <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                        <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                        <jats:p>The quantitative estimates from the meta-analysis model tend to be closer to the \"true\" degree of differential expression than any single lab. Meta-analytic methods can systematically combine Affymetrix results from different laboratories to gain a clearer understanding of genes' relationships to specific conditions of interest.<\/jats:p>\n                     <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2105-6-57","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,18]],"date-time":"2005-03-18T12:49:30Z","timestamp":1111150170000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["Combining Affymetrix microarray results"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"John R","family":"Stevens","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"RW","family":"Doerge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,17]]},"reference":[{"issue":"10","key":"382_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"3","DOI":"10.3102\/0013189X005010003","volume":"5","author":"GV Glass","year":"1976","unstructured":"Glass GV: Primary, Secondary, and Meta-Analysis of Research.
