Overview of HuGENet™ website Contents |
|
As of June 1, 2006, the HuGENet™ website contains 21,610 research studies indexed in the HuGE Published Literature database, referencing 2,379 genes, 796 factors (personal or environmental), and 2,608 health outcomes/diseases. Both epidemiologic studies and review articles can be found in the database which includes 278 meta-analyses and 94 pooled analyses. Please see the GDPInfo Summary of Contents for more details.
Note: The count of health outcomes indexed in the database is based on a query that groups similar outcomes according to ICD-9 codes. This figure is different from the total numbers of records listed in the Genomics and Disease Prevention Information system (GDPInfo) portal Health Topics A-Z.
