Appendix 1—table 6. Summary of all the association tests for GRS.

All GRS related tests from the main text. The notation of MED12mut + and MED12mut- refer to the numbers of MED12-mutation-positive and -negative tumors, respectively. The tests include Wilcoxon rank-sum and models for linear and negative binomial (NB) regression (variable ~GRS). The P values were adjusted for FWER with the Holm-Bonferroni method (Q). Significant associations (Q < 0.05) are shown bolded. Note that population association tests include only the female controls.
