Fig. 6

AC Organ, tissue, and cell type enrichment for shared loci between CVDs and CeVDs based on all RFs, respectively. The y-axis in all three figures represents the -log (combined P value) which indicates the probability that the set of significantly expressed genes of a given size would have occurred by chance. The smaller the P value, the more likely that the pathway is significantly pathway identified. The x-axis represents different organs, tissues, and cell types in each figure, respectively. D Gene set size distribution and organ enrichment for pleiotropic loci shared by different CVDs or CeVDs and RFs combinations. The upper bar chart represents the number of gene sets shared by CVDs and RFs or CeVDs and RFs, in which different colors mean different CVDs or CeVDs and RFs combinations. In the lower chart, the left rectangles with different colors represent different organ systems, and each square with different colors from red to blue represents the −log (combined P value) of a certain CVDs/CeVDs-RFs combination in one specific organ system enrichment. Each column represents the enrichment of one specific CVDs-RFs or CeVDs-RFs combination, and each row represents the enrichment for different CVDs or CeVDs and RFs pairs in one specific organ system.
