Figure 2. Forest and regional plots of associations for cotinine from genome-wide meta-analysis.

Figure 2

Forest plots illustrate effect size and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) observed in each contributing study for chromosome 15 (A) and chromosome 4 (B) SNPs with smallest p-values (“top” SNPs). Regional plots show SNPs plotted by their positions on chromosomes against –log10 p-value for their association with cotinine level in genome-wide meta-analysis. The top SNP in each region is highlighted in purple. The SNPs surrounding each top SNP are colour coded to reflect their LD with this variant (see legend). Estimated recombination rates are plotted in pale blue to reflect local LD structure on secondary y-axis. Genome build = hg19; LD population = 1000 Genomes March 2012 release (EUR). Regional plots generated using Locus Zoom.
