  2. Note: BFDP is computed assuming the prior probability of true association equal to 10-4for all variants, which implies a number of expected true associations in the order of 102. Results with BFDP<0.15 in the adjusted analyses are bolded. aReference/Alternative alleles, bAnalyses only include OncoArray data since the variants had imputation r2 <0.7 on iCOGS.
