P-values by Fisher's exact test comparing nonsynonymous (NS) and synonymous (S) variants combined and identified exclusively in the low apoA-I or in the high apoA-I group. Values represent the cumulative number of genetic variants identified in the lowest and highest 0–1 percentile, 0–5 percentile and 0–10 percentile, 0–20 percentile and 0–50 percentile of the apoA-I distribution in the Copenhagen City Heart Study.
The upper and lower 0–50 percentiles combined correspond to the total number of nonsynonymous and synonymous variants identified in the Copenhagen City Heart Study.
