Z.add, Z.dom and Z.rec are the z-statistics under the additive, dominant and recessive models respectively. Similarly, P.add, P.dom and P.rec are the p-values under the three genetic models. Theoretical combined p is the p-value adjusted for multiple testing of different genetic models, obtained by the proposed analytic approach. Bootstrap combined p represents the same p-value obtained by 1,000 bootstraps. Integration error is the estimated error from computing the trivariate integral using mvtnorm
