These genes sets passed Bonferroni correction in the analysis (MAGENTA or MAGMA).
Number of genes above 75th percentile enrichment cutoff.
Number of observed genes above enrichment cutoff minus number of expected genes above enrichment cutoff.
The Uncorrected P value for MAGENTA was taken from ‘NOMINAL_GSEA_PVAL_95PERC_CUTOFF’ in Supplementary Table 2.
Gene sets in bold pass Benjamini-Hochberg with one method and are nominal significant (uncorrected P value <0.05) with the other method.
