Presented are p values from tests of differential expression between rheumatic patients and normal controls.

a Genes identified from the top 100 ranked genes across the six datasets. The corresponding p-values are moderate p-values from the moderated-t statistic.

b Genes identified based on p-values adjusted by the Benjamini-Hochberg method. The corresponding p-values are adjusted p-values.

Each of the genes was identified from three of the four diseases, and the p values of the corresponding datasets are in bold.

Significant p values in the meta-analysis are in bold.
