In the literature

A nominally significant interaction effect between the presence/absence of an alteration and efficacy of abemaciclib plus NSAI versus placebo plus NSAI was observed for EGFR , FGFR1 , CCND1 , and PIK3CA ( Fig. 3 ); however, these results should be interpreted with caution because of the exploratory nature of the analysis.
A single nominally significant coding SNP R311C (rs7314976, MAF = 0.14) within the GPR109A gene was taken forward for replication and found to be consistently associated with adiponectin in the three cohorts (CoLaus, Fenland and MRC Ely study, n = 8285, p = 4.6×10 −8 ) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) in four cohorts (CoLaus, Fenland, Ely study and Lolipop, n = 18425, p = 2.9×10 −8 ) ( Figure S2A, S2B ).
We mapped cis-QTL with QTLtools 1.3 39 to obtain (1) the top cis-QTL association for each gene after empirically adjusting p values using 1000 permutations, (2) all nominally significant associations, and (3) conditional cis-QTL associations after stepwise regressing out stronger, masking cis-QTL signals from the gene expression measurements.
When nominally significant associations were observed analyses were corrected for the False Discovery Rate (FDR) using Q-Value (bootstrap method) ( Storey, 2002 ). 3 Results No significant differences were observed between either COMT Met or COMT Val with respect to demographic variables with the exception of depression ( Table 1 ).
This array was chosen because it contained pre-validated primer sets for three reference genes (Rplp1, Rpl13a, and Ldha) that were unchanged in our array data, six genes that showed a Benjamini-Hochberg corrected significant effect of treatment (Actb, Hspb1, Gfra1, Fgf9, Lifr, and Stat3), as well as several other neurotrophin-related genes that showed a nominally significant effect of treatment (e.g., Gfra2, Ngfrap1, and Npy) that did not survive FDR correction (see Methods section).
