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.
