In the literature

In addition, we required the nominally significant genetic covariance signals to fall within two megabases upstream and downstream of the corresponding gene (based on genome build 37 coordinates). 2.11 Phenotypic correlation between NIDPs and family history of dementia We assessed the significance of empirical measurement differences in NIDPs across UKB individuals with and without a family history of dementia.
Interestingly, a nominally significant association was observed between rs7643677 and the trait “disease severity” in the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative study ( 14 ), with its C allele associated with a higher risk of developing severe symptoms or conditions that typically require hospitalization (effect size = 0.026, p -value=6.48×10 -3 ).
These results were nominally significant (i.e., not adjusting for multiple comparisons) and were primarily driven by Pakistan, although the direction of effect (i.e., lower Z -scores for mothers with hypozincemia) was seen in Guatemala and India, as well.
