Figure 1 Candidate genes associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or related phenotypes.
Notes: The upper part shows a histogram of the number of COPD susceptibility genes based on the number of publications supporting a significant genetic association. The lower part shows the corresponding genes in each bar. Official gene symbols are indicated. The number of publications that are supportive is indicated in parentheses. References are provided in for genes supported by at least one publication and in for genes tested but not supported.
Figure 2 Scatter plot showing the number of studies supporting and not supporting candidate genes for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Notes: A total of 192 genes are illustrated. Note that many genes overlap in the lower-left corner and the 192 dots cannot be visualized on this display. The gray and red lines are the regression and identity lines, respectively. Genes studied many times or more consistently replicated are illustrated.
