For each variant and stratum we present power (%) based on study-specific effect size, effect allele frequency and case/control ratio from the GWAS on Illumina610k. Similarly we estimated the sample size required to have 80% power to detect the associated signals with genome-wide significance (p=5×10⁻⁸).
EAF, effect allele frequency; GWAS, genome-wide association studies; JSN, joint space narrowing; OA, osteoarthritis; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism.
