Table 3.

PheWAS Hits by Symptom Group. The first and second columns give PheCode symptom groups as defined by the PheWAS catalog and the total number of PheCodes in each group. The other columns give the number of phenome-wide significant hits and the proportion of hits to the total number of PheCodes in each symptom group for each cohort in the primary analysis including the two control cohorts.
