a

The top half of the table shows the number of DNA samples genotyped by study and the number remaining after genome-wide genotyping QC.

b

The bottom half of the table shows the initial total number of SNPs on the Affymetrix array used and the number remaining after QC. The same SNP results pertain to all studies and are only shown once for clarity.

c

MAF: Minor Allele Frequency.
