The Proteome-Wide Association Study (PWAS) is a protein-based genetic association approach designed to complement traditional variant-based methods like GWAS. PWAS operates in two stages: first, machine learning models predict the impact of genetic variants on protein-coding genes, generating effect scores. These scores are then aggregated into a gene-damaging score for each individual.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFPWAS (proteome-wide association study) is an innovative genetic association approach that complements widely used methods like GWAS (genome-wide association study). The PWAS approach involves consecutive phases. Initially, machine learning modeling and probabilistic considerations quantify the impact of genetic variants on protein-coding genes' biochemical functions.

This pilot study investigated the use of an evidence-based checklist for accuracy with oral medication administration and error reporting among prelicensure nursing students. Checklist items were anchored in the mnemonic C-MATCH-REASON (Client, Medication, ADRs, Time, Client History, Route, Expiration date, Amount, Site, Outcomes, Notation).
