## Description

This track displays the trend p-values (-log10) of the seven diseases reported by The Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (see References section below). The diseases studied are:

- Bipolar disorder
- Coronary artery disease
- Crohn's disease
- Hypertension
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Type 1 diabetes
- Type 2 diabetes

## Methods

Reported p-values were taken for each of the Illumina550 probes on the genome. For visualization purposes, these p-values were logged and negated.

Most of the data for chromosome X is omitted from this track because of the difference in statistical power and the difference in control sets used. The trend p-value captures the majority of the associated signals, therefore it was used to create this track instead of the genotypic p-value.
