Results for all iCOGS SNPs, and after removing known associated loci. Disease prevalence of EOC subtypes is calculated as the lifetime risk of ovarian cancer multiplied by the relative proportion of the corresponding EOC subtype. See “Methods” section. Bolded estimates are statistically significantly different from 0
