Fig. 3.
Mendelian randomization analysis of the association between PALMD gene expression and CAVS risk. Each circle represents 1 of 12 SNPs located within 200 kb of PALMD selected for association with PALMD gene expression (P < 0.05) using stepwise regression. The blue line is the regression slope using the Wald method. The magenta dashed lines represent 95% confidence intervals from bootstrap. a Effect on CAVS risk from QUEBEC-CAVS cohort against effect on PALMD gene expression (P = 0.0036). b Effect on CAVS risk from UK Biobank against effect on PALMD gene expression (P = 1.18 × 10−5)
