  1. The total significance area has been split into areas of positive and negative associations. The regression coefficients (\(\hat{\beta }\)) are presented as median (interquartile range—IQR) across all vertices of the ASAT surface and the significance areas as a percentage (%) of the vertices with statistically significant associations.
