In the literature

To further assess the relevance of driver meQTLs to cancer risk, we used them to predict breast cancer status alongside clinical covariates using the approach described by Elgart et al . 18 We first performed feature selection by LASSO on nominally significant driver meQTLs and available clinical factors (age, ancestry as represented by the top 10 genotype-derived PCs); LASSO regularization removed ancestry and some meQTLs.
In that study, OCA2, KITLG, SLC24A4, and TPCN2, which are all associated with blond hair or blue eyes, did not show a nominally significant association with the risk of CM or BCC.

Gene prioritization after colocalization We selected all genes from the colocalization study for which the posterior probability was >0.5 and that had a nominally significant p -value \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\le$$\end{document} ≤ 0.05.
63 A similar approach on 148,508 individuals, of whom 22,080 had at least one parent with AD/dementia or AD diagnosis themselves, found a nominally significant enrichment of rare ABCA7 variants in disease, although an OR was not reported. 64 Power in this cohort to find significance may have been decreased by the proxy approach in which not all 22,080 AD‐classified individuals actually developed AD, carried risk variants or may have had parents with other types of dementia.
