Fig. 5: Different patterns of association observed between the diffuse and the limited forms of SSc.

a Association test results by logistic regression for the major clinical phenotypes, lcSSc (n = 679), dcSSc (n = 575), ACA-positive SSc (n = 429), ATA-positive SSc (n = 463), and SSc complicated with ILD (n = 625) are presented. The blue lines indicate genome-wide significance (p = 5.0 × 10−8) threshold line. b A heatmap of the effect sizes (odds ratios) of lead variants for each subset is presented. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
