Fig. 2: Heat map of the 282 potential causal effects of 70 metabolites on 183 FinnGen disease traits.

From: Assessing the potential causal effects of 1099 plasma metabolites on 2099 binary disease endpoints

Fig. 2

The x-axis denotes the 183 disease traits of 20 colored categories (from left to right). The y-axis denotes the 70 metabolites of eight colored biochemical classes (from bottom to top). The bar plots show the number of FinnGen disease traits that each metabolite confers potential causal effects on (on the left) and the number of putative causal metabolites for each disease trait (on the top). The color of cells denotes the direction of potential causal effects (red for positive and blue for negative effects) of metabolites on disease traits.
