Fig. 4. Association of the POAG risk loci with IOP and VCDR.

Fig. 4

The x-axes show POAG effect estimates in log(OR) scale for the independent genome-wide significant loci obtained from the cross-ancestry meta-analysis. The y-axes show the effect estimates for the same SNPs obtained from the meta-analysis of IOP in UKBB + IGGC (mmHg scale; a) and the meta-analysis of VCDR in UKBB + IGGC (b). Blue line shows the regression line for IOP (a) and VCDR loci (b). Orange dots represent SNPs having P < 0.05 for IOP, purple dots P < 0.05 for VCDR, green dots P < 0.05 for both IOP and VCDR, and blue dots P > 0.05 for both IOP and VCDR. Horizontal gray bars on each dot represent the 95% confidence intervals (CIs; mean values + / −  1.96*SEM) for the POAG effect estimates (34,179 cases vs. 349,321 controls), and vertical gray bars shows the 95% CIs for IOP (N = 133,492; a) and VCDR (N = 90,939; b). The shaded area shows the 95% CIs on the repression line. Although none of the blue dots show an expected trend of association with IOP in a (their 95% CIs do not overlap with the regression line), the majority of them show a trend of association for VCDR in b.
