This table includes the results from the between-family discovery, the within-family validation and replication analyses for all 5 biomarkers. Discovery analyses were performed with GEE for 783 twins with low or high aggression. The p-values in the discovery analysis have been adjusted for multiple testing using the FDR of 5% for 89 tests. Validation analyses were performed with paired t-tests for 189 twin pairs discordant (high-low) on aggression status. The p-values in the validation analysis have been adjusted for multiple testing using the FDR 5% for 23 tests. Replication analyses were performed with GEE for 183 clinical cases and 184 twin controls. The p-values in the replication analysis have been adjusted for multiple testing using the FDR of 5% for 5 tests. All p ≤ 0.05 have been given in bold. Full model information of the discovery, validation and replication analyses have been included in Supplementary Tables 6–8, respectively.
