Experiments
Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

What can genome-wide association studies tell us about the genetics of common disease?
PMID 18454206 · PMC2323402 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Apparent patterns of common, low-effect disease-associated alleles largely reflect statistical power of studies rather than the true underlying distribution of disease variants

Size matters: just how big is BIG?: Quantifying realistic sample size requirements for human genome epidemiology.
PMID 18676414 · PMC2639365 · International journal of epidemiology · 2009 · 7 claims · 2 setups
Conventional power calculations for case-control studies disregard analytic complexity (e.g. clinical assessment errors, unmeasured aetiological determinants) and can seriously underestimate true sample size requirements

Gene-disease relationship discovery based on model-driven data integration and database view definition.
PMID 19042916 · PMC2639000 · Bioinformatics (Oxford, England) · 2009 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Explicit gene–disease relationships can be formulated as candidate gene definitions (e.g., co-localization, dysregulation, functional similarity) that may include intermediary orthologous or interacting genes

POCUS: mining genomic sequence annotation to predict disease genes.
PMID 14611661 · PMC329128 · Genome biology · 2003 · 8 claims · 6 setups
Genes predisposing to the same disease tend to share functional annotation IDs (GO/InterPro) more than expected by chance

Copy number variants and common disorders: filling the gaps and exploring complexity in genome-wide association studies.
PMID 17953491 · PMC2039766 · PLoS genetics · 2007 · 8 claims · 5 setups
CNVs are not easily tagged by SNPs and often fall in genomic regions poorly covered by whole-genome SNP arrays or not genotyped by HapMap, so current GWASs have largely missed their contribution to complex disorders.

MACSIMS: multiple alignment of complete sequences information management system.
PMID 16792820 · PMC1539025 · BMC bioinformatics · 2006 · 8 claims · 5 setups

Systems genetics of alcoholism.
PMID 23584748 · PMC3860445 · Alcohol research & health : the journal of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Alcoholism is a multifactorial disease driven by interacting genetic, social, and environmental factors, with genetics accounting for 50-60% of risk.

The role of X-chromosome inactivation in female predisposition to autoimmunity.
PMID 11056674 · PMC17816 · Arthritis research · 2000 · 6 claims · 2 setups
Skewed X-chromosome inactivation in the thymus could lead to inadequate thymic deletion of T cells reactive to X-linked polymorphic self-antigens, predisposing to autoimmunity
