a, Distributions of PGSs for ICV in different sleep duration strata among shorter-than-average sleepers (3–4 h, N = 541; 4–5 h, N = 2,937; 5–6 h, N = 13,863; 6–7 h, N = 177,493), expressed in s.d. compared with the sample mean of 0. The horizontal lines in each violin represent the median group value and the interquartile range, the height represents the 95% CI and the width represents the probability density. b, ICV for shorter-than-average sleepers with one standard deviation above (blue) and below (red) the average PGS for sleep duration. The grey shaded areas represent the 95% CIs. c, SNP effects on ICV (x axis) and sleep duration (y axis) for the shorter-than-average sleepers. d, TGV for shorter-than-average sleepers with one standard deviation above (blue) and below (red) the average PGS for sleep duration. The grey shaded areas represent the 95% CIs.
