Extended Data Fig. 4: Characteristics of GOLDPlus genome-wide significant variants in GOLD sex-specific cohorts.

For each variant, the characteristics are shown for the GOLD sex-specific analysis including: associated gene, NAFLD increasing effect allele (EA), effect allele frequency (EAF), effect/beta and 95% confidence interval (CI), Cochran’s Q heterogeneity I2 metric (HetSq) and heterogeneity P-value (HetPVal), EA P-value (P), and sample size (N). Results are for meta-analysis of GOLD cohort males (blue), females (red), and pooled sexes (black). The estimates of the effect sizes (Beta) and 95% confidence interval in bidirectional testing within each ancestry and for all the ancestries combined were shown in the forest plots. The data underlying these plots are provided as Source Data.
