Table 1 Mean -log10p for non-eQTL and eQTL breast cancer OncoArray SNPs. The eQTLs are stratified by tissue types. Only gray zone SNPs (0.05 > p > 5 × 10− 8) were used in this analysis

From: SNP eQTL status and eQTL density in the adjacent region of the SNP are associated with its statistical significance in GWA studies
