Heatmap of Effect Sizes for Significant Associations between Gene Expression Level and Cardio-Metabolic-Trait Levels at GWAS Loci with Coincident eQTLs
Rows show 23 selected cardio-metabolic traits, and columns show the eQTL genes (and reported GWAS trait at the coincident locus). Negative values (blue) indicate that increased gene expression level was associated (p < 0.05) with decreased trait level, whereas positive values (orange) indicate that increased gene expression level was associated with increased trait level.
