Abbreviations: ADHD, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; AN, anorexia nervosa; BIP, bipolar disorder; GERD, gastroesophageal reflux disease; GPA, genetic analysis incorporating pleiotropy and annotation method; IBD, inflammatory bowel disease; IBS, irritable bowel syndrome; LDSC, linkage disequilibrium score regression; MDD, major depressive disorder; PAR, pleiotropy association ratio; PM 11, proportion of genetic variants associated with both traits; PTSD, posttraumatic stress disorder; PUD, peptic ulcer disease; SCZ, schizophrenia.

a

Genetic correlation and genetic overlap were estimated by LDSC and GPA methods, respectively. Bonferroni-corrected significance threshold was set at P < 2.83 × 10−3 (.05/24), producing a final union set of 22 pairwise traits with significant genetic correlation or genetic overlap for subsequent analysis.

b

We introduced PAR as PM 11/(PM 10 + PM 01 + PM 11) to represent the proportion of pleiotropic single-nucleotide variations (SNVs) associated with both traits against the proportion of SNVs associated with at least 1 trait.

c

Pairwise trait with significant genetic correlation.

d

Pairwise trait with significant genetic overlap.

e

Genome-wide association study summary data with potentially significant sample overlap.
