From: Expression- and splicing-based multi-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies identified multiple genes for breast cancer by estrogen-receptor status

Number of genes identified cumulatively using each TWAS approach. Abbreviations: TWAS, transcriptome-wide association study; “Breast Exp”, genes identified using the expression-based TWAS approach in breast tissue only; “Breast Exp + 11 Tissue Exp”, genes identified using the expression-based TWAS approach in either breast tissue only or jointly across tissues; “Breast Exp + 11 Tissue Exp + Breast Splice”, genes identified using the expression-based TWAS approach in either breast tissue only or jointly across tissues and the splicing-based approach in breast tissue only; “Breast Exp + 11 Tissue Exp + Breast Splice + 11 Tissue Splice”, genes identified using the expression-based TWAS approach in either breast tissue only or jointly across tissues and the splicing-based approach in either breast tissue only or jointly across tissues
