Figure 1 Genome-wide Association Analysis of Individuals with Primary Hypothyroidism versus Controls SNP tests of association (logistic regression) under the assumption of an additive genetic model adjusted for sex, birth decade, and study site; the tests incorporated 522,164 SNPs. The red horizontal line indicates p = 5 × 10−8, the threshold for genome-wide significance.

Figure 3 Manhattan Plot of Phenome-wide Association Study for rs965513 The PheWAS considered 866 phenotypes via single SNP tests of association (logistic regression) adjusted for age and sex. The red line indicates Bonferroni significance for these associations, p = 5.8 × 10−5. The blue line indicates p = 0.05. For labeled associations, the dot size varies by the magnitude of the odds ratio. For purposes of display, we normalized all odds ratios by taking the multiplicative absolute value such that all values were greater than 1 (e.g., an odds ratio of 0.5 becomes 2).
