Fig. 3. Genetic correlations of extensive PVS burden with risk factors, neurological diseases and other MRI markers of brain aging.

Fig. 3

ac, Genetic correlation using LD-score regression of extensive PVS burden with putative risk factors (a), neurological diseases (b) and other MRI markers of brain aging (c); two-sided exact P values are provided for nominally significant results (*P < 0.05) and significant results after multiple-testing correction (**P < 7.9 × 10−4, correcting for 21 independent phenotypes and the three PVS locations); full results are provided in Supplementary Table 9. Larger colored squares correspond to more significant P values and the colors represent the direction of the genetic correlation (positive in red, negative in blue). HDL, high-density lipoprotein; amygdala, accumbens (nucleus), caudate (nucleus), pallidum, and putamen correspond to the volumes of these subcortical structures.
