Table 1.

Mean power for each method across all genes

Method Hypertension Nongenetic
Stau 0.056 0.048
Scomb 0.083 0.049
Smax 0.055 0.046
C-alpha 0.043 0.050
VT 0.069 0.050
SKAT 0.051 0.055

This table reports the mean power for each of the 6 methods investigated for those variants with minor allele frequencies less than 0.05. We report the power for the simulated hypertension phenotype as well as for a nongenetic phenotype for type 1 error.

SKAT, sequence kernel association test; VT, variable threshold.
