Table 2 OSA results with nominally significant lod score increases in covariate-based subgroup (p ≤ 0.05). Significant results after correcting for testing multiple covariates on the same chromosome are shown in bold (p ≤ 0.05/8 = 0.006). "Max LOD" denotes maximum lod score in covariate-based subgroup of families identified by OSA. Baseline lod score in entire data set is difference between "Max LOD" and "Change from Baseline" columns. See text for covariate abbreviations.
