Fig. 3From: Estimating prevalence of human traits among populations from polygenic risk scoresCorrelation between multiple sclerosis and psGRS with linear (red), polynomial (blue) and exponential (green) regressions lines. The data points are colored according to the super populations: AFR (orange), AMR (black), EAS (green), EUR (blue) and SAS (purple). The scale of the x-axis is not the same for both plots due to differing psPRS ranges. A Full model with three regression types: polynomial (r2 = 0.80, p-value: 3.94 × 10–08), linear, (r2 = 0.47, p-value: 2.12 × 10–04) and exponential (r2 = 0.64, p-value: 2.59 × 10–06). B Linear regression after maximization (r2 = 0.98, p-value: 9.9 × 10–11). Populations as defined in Fig. 1Back to article page
