Analysis of BSND Variant V43I and Essential Hypertension

Disease Model	q^†	α	β	γ	Deviance	p-Value
General Under H₀	0.1073	0.2006	0.99	0.85	36.66^*	<0.001
Recessive Under H₀	0.0904	0.2001	1.0	0.94	29.71	<0.001
Recessive Under H_a	0.0911	0.2016	1.0	0.73	1.00	0.317
Likelihood Ratio Test of H₀ vs. H_a					28.71	<0.001

This is the general χ² statistic instead of the deviance defined as (8).

^†

q is the frequency of the minor allele A.
