Variant burden analysis for candidate genes: DGCR6 and TBX20
| Genes | Number of variants in 1 274 patient alleles | Number of variants in gnomad alleles | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| DGCR6 | 2 | 146 in 30 906 | 0.102 |
| TBX20 | 7 | 70 in 30 944 | 0.033 |
Variant burden analyses were performed comparing frequencies of the variants fulfilling the two criteria that were mentioned in ‘Section Replication of candidate BAV/TAA genes’ between BAV/TAA patients and controls in gnomAD database (only genome data). Chi-square test was executed with either Pearson chi-square test (two-sided) or Fisher’s exact test (two-sided) (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Software). Statistical significance was considered when p < 0.05. Statistically significant p-values are represented in bold.
