Fig. 6: Genetic correlation analysis for the five forms of hernia.

Pairwise genetic correlations estimated via bivariate LD score regression for 245 traits. Only correlations that were significant after correction for multiple testing in at least one form of hernia are shown (P < 2.04 × 10−4, indicated by an asterisk). Positive genetic correlations are shown in blue, negative ones in red for all combinations where P < 0.05, with the size of the colored squares indicating the significance level (truncated at P < 2.04 × 10−4).
