abstract: Studying genetic associations with prognosis (e.g. survival, disability,
  subsequent disease events) is problematic due to selection bias - also termed index
  event bias or collider bias - whereby selection on disease status can induce associations
  between causes of incidence with prognosis. The Slope-Hunter approach adjusts genetic
  associations for this bias assuming that the contribution of the set of genetic
  variants affecting incidence only to the heritability of incidence is at least as
  large as the contribution of those affecting both incidence and prognosis.
